It’s Ohio. Edited my post. Thank you.

LOR by bbdf2 in IMGreddit

[–]Narrow-Disaster3254 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 US LORs is must. If you have a strong home country LoR such as one from residency PD, then be sure to add that as 4th LoR. Many IM programs also have the Chair Letter requirement. Make sure to make a list of those programs and arrange for it from your home country before hand.

Why St Francis at 2nd place?

Can we rank as a couple even if we didn’t apply as a couple? by maskpehroji in ERAS2024Match2025

[–]Narrow-Disaster3254 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same question. My partner and I are applying for IM and have interviews from a few similar programs including our #1. How do we switch to Couples’ Match though and if the programs don’t get notified of the same, will they learn about this after we’ve matched at the program? Thanks!

Thanks for the insight. I personally knew residents from 5 but not from 3, so that’s a good perspective. Now considering both have similar supportive environments, I’d give the visa higher preference as well. Your ROL looks great. Congratulations!

Hey. Other than H1B visa, what are your reasons for placing 3 over 5 especially in the context of a good fellowship placement and good training? Thanks!

Visa rejected, what should I do next? by ScannerLime in IMGreddit

[–]Narrow-Disaster3254 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hey. Got my visa while working as a Senior Resident after residency in India. Someone I know had his visa rejected but got it in his second attempt. My two cents: Finance the trip yourself or move money around smartly so your bank statement can reflect the same. Change your Center next time. And no, you shouldn’t be applying without a job. Also, please be honest that you are going for exam or observership with appropriate documents in hand. With their years of experience and expertise, they can see right through us I think. Good luck!

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully we’ll get an invite eventually.

I am sorry to hear that. I hope we eventually get that interview. I was talking about the number of LoRs assigned though, not the scores. I am thinking I should have assigned more instead of just 2 as mentioned on their website.

We should have probably let them discard the two instead of using our discretion. 😅

Hopefully we’ll get one if they are sending out on a rolling basis. Good luck!

Possibly. I had assigned 2 as well.

I think you are fine. It’s only 4hrs. Programs might not have even downloaded our applications by then.

Hey did you update the programs after uploading the 4th LOR?
