  9. Selection Criteria for Residency: Results of National Program Directors Survey Marianne Green, MD, Paul Jones, MD, and John X. Thomas, Jr., PhD Academic Medicine, Vol. 84, No. 3/March 2009 Conclusions The top academic selection criteria are based on clinical performance, with the exception of USMLE Step 1 score. Indicators that reflect excellence in clinical performance are valued across the specialties by residency program directors regardless of competitiveness within the specialty. USMLE Step 2 CK ranks higher in the less competitive specialties, whereas research experience is more prominent in the most competitive specialties. The Medical Student Performance Evaluation was ranked lowest of all criteria by the program directors.
