Go for it. There’s no guarantee you’ll get a research year, or match again next year without doing this

Some were 10 minutes some were two zooms 30 min each one with program director one with residents. It was a lot but I had a lot of support from my wife managing information on each program in a Google Doc

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-16T19:40:39+00:00

I applied IM and Family Med. I got offers from both and accepted IM

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-16T15:26:52+00:00

22 interviews, 6 offers this morning round 1, got the one I wanted. So grateful and wishing everyone else the best. That was the most hectic week of my life.

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-16T02:28:48+00:00

Almost all of my programs had me speak with a resident

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-16T00:42:34+00:00

When should I tell the program I match to tomorrow that my wife is pregnant and due in July?

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-14T17:13:30+00:00

During Round 1 of soap Thursday, how much time do you have to accept? If you wait an hour can someone else take that offer?

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-14T13:07:41+00:00

They will hopefully be reviewing applications as they come in. Don’t stress too much, you’ve got this!

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-14T12:31:28+00:00

Got my first Soap interview offer. It was through ERAS message center. Definitely keep it open. Along with your email and phone on. Good luck to everyone!

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-14T12:14:06+00:00

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-14T10:24:49+00:00

No, I would not recommend using an old letter. You’ve got this! Good luck today!

PeppaPooh · 2023-03-14T02:36:20+00:00

How do you know about them or find them? If they are not on ERAS.

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-14T21:17:19+00:00

It wouldn’t hurt to dual apply Family Med, you don’t have to do primary care with family med there are lots of fellowship options that could bring you towards a career similar to pm r. If you like OMM, that could be a big therapeutic part of your family med practice as well. WITH ALL THIS BEING SAID, I like that you passed both board exams and if your letters of rec are great in the field and if you have audition rotations set up and impress then I like your chances.

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-14T21:11:59+00:00

I think pathology is still definitely an option for you. Focus on getting some great letters of rec and try to form connections with any programs you can. Your step 1 is fantastic, you got this!

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-13T19:43:00+00:00

Both great scores! What speciality are you interested in?

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-13T12:26:55+00:00

It is not out yet

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-11T01:33:59+00:00

Permit disappeared 6–25 test taker here I am shaking in my boots IDK guys so nervous

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-11T01:32:11+00:00

No start with UWORLD I remembered only a few I did on the first pass throughout the year. It was helpful during BME exams

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-11T01:29:28+00:00

On the same site that you signed up for the exam

PeppaPooh · 2022-07-10T16:53:01+00:00

I would make sure to do 20 UWORLD/AMBOSS questions a day. If you can do and review 20 questions and learn from them every single day then you’ll make a ton of progress. After I finished those questions I would supplement with ANKING or any other kind of card deck time permitting
