Thanks so much! That was really useful! Someone told me something about linking the two programs , the prelim and the advanced. Do you know anything about that?
I don’t think so! I applied 3 years ago, and at that time, people were talking about how there was a shift to make them all categorical. It’s certainly nice not having to move again!
In your case, if you want to do Internal Medicine, I would only apply to the categorical positions. If (in March during the match process) you don't match, then you might consider "scrambling" into a prelim internal medicine position. If you're at that point though, I'd definitely talk to an advisor in Internal Medicine who can give advice specific to you.
That was so clear and concise! Cleared a lot of my queries. Thank you so much Dr. Corbitt.

OMG this was extremely helpful! Thank you so much! Also pursuing anesthesiology. Question: is it risky to apply only categorical?
