Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum. I am also clueless how to approach my 4th year re: electives, applications and whatnot. I was wondering if some of you wonderful people would be so kind as to help me out with a few questions. I'm in NYC and I'd like to stay in NYC or somewhere on the East coast. Can someone tell me all of the 'solid' orthopaedic programs in this area, maybe ranked (obviously your opinion, although maybe I'm missing some ranking site or something??)? Also, I'm not sure where to do away electives, any ideas in this area? Lastly, I scored 240's on boards, will most probably NOT be AOA (0-3 honors third year), and will have 2-3 articles submitted for publication in Orthopaedics by the time I am applying. I was kind of wondering what programs were realistically attainable?? Thank you so much for your help. I need it!!
