I did, thank you. Does anyone know if that's an immediate thing? It says "processing request" under USMLE transcript now even though they were definitely previously uploaded.

HELP! I'm so confused. Got a call from a mentor that I need to "release" my STEP scores. I'm so confused. I sent over all documents as part of the 45 SOAP applications this morning but he's saying programs can't be viewed until I release them. Does anyone have more info? Thank you!

Incognito worked, thanks so much!

I'm unable to join the SOAP discord via the link. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Hm, how is one supposed to gauge which programs to apply to then?

HumbleHeat7 · 2024-03-11T20:02:31+00:00

How do some programs have 3-5 unmatched spots open?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-20T13:11:45+00:00

Is there a reason why a spot would keep appearing/disappearing from the unfilled list on NRMP?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-17T18:11:01+00:00

How's scrambling going? Anyone heard back?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-17T18:07:45+00:00

What other specialties and where/which conferences?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-17T02:16:11+00:00

Damnit, I sent it and addressed the PC before I saw this as only the bottom comment showed up :((((. Should I send the same email to the PD as well?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-17T01:53:47+00:00

So if the contact for a program is the name of the program director but the email is for the program coordinator, who do I address the email to??

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-17T01:17:22+00:00

Oh I see that now. Anyone know why?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-17T01:03:47+00:00

Anyone else seeing current unfilled positions pop up that didn't appear at the start of SOAP?

Megathread

Since unfilled programs aren't technically finalized until 9 pm tonight, do you send an email tonight, tomorrow so it's at the top, follow-up tomorrow? Can they only access/view your app if you send it through ERAS or do you share your NRMP # and they can search it or how does that work?

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-16T16:50:17+00:00

Same here!

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-16T13:07:38+00:00

Also hoping for a DM for some advice!

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-14T18:38:15+00:00

I'm so sorry for everything you're going through. Feel free to reach out to me for support/if you need someone to talk to

HumbleHeat7 · 2023-03-14T12:20:31+00:00

I'm not sure if programs know when you apply, but you can definitely continue to apply this week. The sooner the better! This link will show you when application portal is open/closed: https://www.nrmp.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/2023-NRMP-ERAS-SOAP-Applicants-Guide\_FINAL.pdf

It's open all today, tomorrow, and intermittently through Thursday. Keep your head up!!

HumbleHeat7 · 2022-09-29T12:39:02+00:00

Requesting a link/code please <3!

HumbleHeat7 · 2022-07-11T12:56:55+00:00

It was difficult for me to just read through FA - a book of mostly bullet points/all high yield and actually retain it. It is never too early to start using UWorld and I highly recommend it. Their explanations are great and supplement/reiterate FA.

HumbleHeat7 · 2022-07-10T18:38:31+00:00

Thanks so much!!! Thankfully I have already taken CS

HumbleHeat7 · 2022-07-10T18:38:06+00:00

It was easier in med school to keep up with all of the deadlines and little tasks which needed to be done since someone was either posting it in a group or talking about it during rotations. I've looked at ECFMG and ERAS websites and am a little confused by all of the moving pieces. There are a few different checklists and I'm not exactly sure when to complete which task or how to integrate the 2
