Umass is a really sweet program! The rest is just a little subpar below Umass.... That is my best "objective" opinon.

I checked the NRMP website and it only allows for ranking to be done using integers....words like suck and subpar do not come up in any drop-down menu

Replied by on topic I don't think any info
I don't think any info you're going to get on here will be "objective", but I can comment on UVA and GTown.

GTown - Subspecialty oriented, trauma light, no fellows, great didactics, early operative experience, DC, very resident oriented, lots of the chiefs were going to great fellowships, have to go to Delaware for peds I think. I obviously liked it, so take that for what it's worth.

UVA - Balanced program, chair is super awesome, best resident sports medicine experience of anywhere I went, early operating, q7 call pretty much throughout, you have a rotation in Roanoke where all you do is operate and don't have to do all the post-op stuff/ER/etc. You're also in Charlottesville which, depending on your situation, can be a good thing or a bad thing. If you're married, C'ville is a real nice town and pretty affordable. If you're single, you're probably staying that way for 5 years. You will, however, have ample opportunities to hit on 19 year old undergrads. And I guess you can go hang out at the grad schools.

That's my "objective" opinion.
