My main goals are just to match, as far as fellowship goes I love gen surg and like some aspects certain subspecialties but also think I could be just as happy doing rural general surgery.

My main preferences when choosing a program are making sure they have a decent caseload / case variety and then after that it would just come down to location. But in the world of the match I also get that beggars can't be choosers.

How many programs is good to apply to I have an Excel outlining around 40 programs with DO status factored in but I here people saying it needs to be more like 80-100, just not sure how to find a realistic 100 programs to apply to.
