Abstract
Background
Standardized letters of recommendation (SLORs) aim to make applicant letters more comparable, but score inflation raises concerns about their usefulness. In orthopaedic surgery, the 2023 SLOR was similarly affected.
Objective
To evaluate the 2023 SLOR's association with orthopaedic surgery residency Match success and the association between below-average scores and Match outcomes.
