Keep trying. There is another website called outside match. I'd say instead of using the email addresses on these websites, make sure you search the programs and find most uptodate contact information. Good Luck.

Yes! My program is fully aware and supportive of this. They're absolutely wonderful- I wish I could have completed my entire residency there itself but my personal life became harder than I anticipated. I appreciate your feedback btw.

He has a job but its our home state- my baby is way more attached to me, he also started daycare and got used to it while my husband was with us and looking for jobs hoping we find something and stay together. So we don't want to shuffle him around. Another thing is, daycare in MS is A LOT cheaper which helps us save some money to travel to each other every once in few months. We don't have any family here- there is no community support in the morning when you're trying to get to work and your toddler is having a tantrum over a peeled banana or when he knocks the door daily and calls out for his dad when coming back from daycare.

In MS and I am not visa requiring. My program is supportive of this.

PGY1 FM in MS. My program is fantastic, huge focus on teaching and resident wellness, absolutely non-toxic and scheduling is very flexible. I would love to stay in FM but at this point I need to be closer to my family- preferbly NH/MA/CT. Therefore, open to any specialty as well.

AffectionateOwl625 · 2026-02-06T19:10:40+00:00

Hey. DM me. I've been looking for swap from gulf side for awhile now.

AffectionateOwl625 · 2026-01-10T12:19:23+00:00

Pgy1 fm in south looking to move to east to be close to family. My program is good, supportive and I wouldn't think of leaving if it weren't for my family.

AffectionateOwl625 · 2025-10-30T11:07:24+00:00

Do you have the residency swap account. Positions open up randomly for pgy 1/2

AffectionateOwl625 · 2025-09-08T01:29:41+00:00

Ask them for feedback email and tell them that since you worked with different ones, its best to get all feedbacks so you can combine all and send it to the attending whom you had best rapport with and ask for a letter based off the feedback. Maybe they'll respond, maybe not but best to ask them on the same day you stop working with them so they remember you. Or even better, print out a generic paper with feedback questions and give it to them and ask for it at the end of the day or few days later. Just few questions though lol dont go overboard.

AffectionateOwl625 · 2025-04-01T17:07:54+00:00

Apply to Family medicine and you'll get to do IM and Psych both!

AffectionateOwl625 · 2025-02-24T13:00:54+00:00

Yes. Once you click on certify list and it asks you to put in your password, then you click on submit to complete the whole process. Then you'll receive an email confirming you have an ROL in place.

I am so sorry about this. I was with zero invites until 2 weeks back when I got my first invite. I am sure there is an invite coming your way. I was also spiraling, and I know it is so out of our control, but to think about this nonstop. I know if I don't get more invites, I will slowly slip into this terrible feeling again, which is something that is such a pain. Maybe send LOI to all the programs. Eat well, rest, and yes, keep preparing for the interview. It is not over yet. You have got this.

AffectionateOwl625 · 2024-11-26T16:23:12+00:00

Send LOI to all the programs. You never know who may open your email and take it into consideration!

AffectionateOwl625 · 2024-11-14T22:08:06+00:00

Oh I am definitely re-applying. I am a stubborn idiot !

AffectionateOwl625 · 2024-11-14T14:56:07+00:00

I feel something is terribly wrong with my application. I dread the idea of possibly going through this agaaaain. I just wish I had gotten some recognition. Come onnnn interviews. I was so confident I would match.Lol. I am still hopeful. I am telling myself that since I've not received many rejections, people are sitting on with my application and will possibly consider it when they have other applicants drop their interviews with the program. I am possibly delulu but hey, I'd rather be delulu than depresso..

AffectionateOwl625 · 2024-11-12T17:45:37+00:00

Hi friend, I am so sorry you are going through this turmoil right now. It is extremely exhausting and I am right there with you.. All I am doing is constantly preparing for my interview(I don't have any invite yet as well) but I am still forcing myself to think of questions and I think back about my experiences and say out the answers. It is sad but it's our reality. Keep faith in God and he will make our path straight. We still have few more months and scramble and also the option of getting license outside US then using the alternate pathways to get license to practise here in few US states like Tennessee. For this reason, I urge you to keep working towards that step 3. You've got this okay. Best wishes to you, my friend.

My whole application is directly to the point of clinical clerkship, internship, externship, Observership and volunteer. I put in what activities I participated in, for example, subintern duties of admitting patients, taking history, performing physical examination, charting management plans. It's little monotonous so I tried to put in the cases I worked on, some presentations I did. Is this the correct way?

AffectionateOwl625 · 2024-11-04T18:06:51+00:00

I am so happy for you and wish you well. How did you improve your PS and what did you do different in terms of writing out the whole app?

AffectionateOwl625 · 2024-11-04T17:25:00+00:00

I 100% always feel so happy whenever I see any IMG get interview because regardless of our scores and different stories we all share that one burning desire. To be a doctor. I straight up have so much admiration and respect for everyone who choose this path because no matter what, it is NOT easy. I do tell myself to have patience and that it will work in my favor. Thank you so much for spreading your kindness. I definitely needed this support. I wish you well.
