Correct. IM has the most people who were AOA and 250+ on Step 1 among its ranks.
That number could be a little skewed because they probably have the most residents. As a percentage, it's probably something like derm or ortho or some other super competitive field. But some of the smartest people I've met are in internal medicine.

And rightfully so. Do you really need to be the top of your class to be a dermatologist? No. People go into it because of the lifestyle and paycheck. IM doctors have a tough job and I'd be happier knowing my IM doc was AOA over my Dermatologist.
