The easiest residency programs are the ones with the most spots, or the least popular professions. Family medicine, general surgery, psychiatry, and internal medicine are all fairly easy to get matched into. The hardest ones have the best lifestyle and the most money. Dermatology is the most difficult, followed by radiology, orthopedics (decidedly not easy, but cool), ENT and so on. Emergency medicine is pretty much dead center these days.
