EM Match Advice 41: The ERAS Application - New and Improved

Dr. Sara Krzyzaniak (Host and Stanford University PD) and Dr. Michelle Lin (ALiEM Founder/UCSF) are joined by Dr. Alexis Pelletier-Bui (Cooper University Hospital Associate PD) and Dr. Elizabeth Werley (Chair of CORD Application Process Improvement Committee, Penn State Hershey). Both serve as key representatives on behalf of the EM specialty on the AAMC ERAS Supplemental Application Working Group.

We discuss the changes made, why they were done, and potential sticking points for medical students while completing the application. We also do a deeper dive on "program signaling". What is it, how many programs can EM applicants list, and nuanced decisions to consider.
