1. You have to be one of Mangolds fellows to match here. It is a waste of 1 of 28 applications otherwise. The match history of the last however many years speaks for itself, but a current attending at Mayo AZ said to me (slight paraphrasing) “you just have to do what he says for a year and they’ll take you.”

Question about ranking. So for Mayo I applied to both advanced and categorical, do I rank those two separately? I don’t actually want to do categorical I just don’t think I knew what I was doing when I was just willy
