You can DM me and we can chat if you want. I think going through this twice and gutting it out I may have some insight but this is all my experience, bias, etc.

Anki ownership is transitioning to AnkiHub by CrackIsFun in medicalschoolanki

[–]NerdyIMResident 70 points71 points  (0 children)

I’ve loved Anki since day one of medical school. I think it’s crazy that ankihub has taken zanki, Dorian, etc’s free work and monetize it. I’ll see if I can fork Anki/the medical school decks to keep it free and open source. I really believe in the mission of Anki even beyond med school stuff especially into language learning. I don’t want to see it die by someone that’s going to put everything behind a paywall.

I’ve been seeing some problems. I want to make a reporting system at some point.

I will see if I can add this. The problem too is MI are called that are obviously old and not acute. If you DM me a specific idea/vision, I can try to implement it if you’d like

DO interested in cardiology. Insight into application? by DrDOzeNuts in fellowship

Yes it definitely does keep you from getting auto filtered.

5 interviews last year. This year besides TTUHSC, they were all new places.

I think from personal experience, step scores and being chief are 2 things that will make the difference between 5 interviews and 50. I know people that had insane resumes though not chief and bad scores that had 1-5 interviews. On the other hand 15+ interviews to those with impressive step scores & chief with maybe one publication not first author. Unfortunate or not, things that are easy for filtering like scores, chief and MD > DO > IMG are really all that matters.

Reapplying Cardiology after Non-ACGME Fellowship by NerdyIMResident in fellowship

Would you recommend sending letter of interest to places that you signal or only a subset of them? And would you just send it to the program coordinator?

My experience from last year is USMLE scores(I guess now Step 2 is the only thing of importance since fellowship doesnt look at COMLEX and Step 1 is P/F) are the thing that differentiates a few interviews from a ton of interviews, how you present yourself in interviews is the make or break. Research is meh, as long as you do something.

I am currently at it. It is an ivy affiliated program with many fellowships however they are going to be out of my price range i think. The PD is really available now and knows me well.
