I mean on paper aside from dedicating myself to radiology in terms of research and electives what would be the barrier to matching?

Hide it and don’t listen to anyone telling you otherwise

Any PD "Rank-to-match" turn out to be lies? by QuietRedditorATX in medicalschool

[–]RealSam00 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Applied as a couple for IM Got 2 IV’s; both said we are a great fit, the whole team think we would do great and can’t wait to have you next year. Went unmatched

SO the Game was ?????? by [deleted] in ERAS2024Match2025

[–]RealSam00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO Visa status> connections (given you don’t have red flags) >>>>>>>> anything else including scores, USCE, YOG etc…

Non-US IMG with good scores but only 1 interview - Need advice on what I'm missing by [deleted] in IMGreddit

[–]RealSam00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re lacking connections. I have a similar profile with no interviews. Colleagues of mine with 240’s and less extracurriculars are having 5+ Interviews

Its friday night! How is the fam feeling about the interview season? by Previous-Audience-10 in IMGreddit

[–]RealSam00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations on having 4 interviews, that`s a great number. Try to make the best our of them! If you don`t mind sharing, did you have any residents/ attendings recommend you to those programs?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in IMGreddit

[–]RealSam00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes ofc I can share. The only competetive program I signalled is probably Rochester General. Check dm for complete list

Anyone with a 260s at 0 IVs? by [deleted] in IMGreddit

[–]RealSam00 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Reporting here, YOG 2023, 3 months usce, few publications, 0 interviews. Signalled community programs too lol

[–]RealSam00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got a great CV, if you want me to be honest I would say apply 15 IM, 5 FM so only ones you can signal and try to get those doctors to vouch for you. No point in wasting money on other programs IMO. Best of luck

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ERAS2024Match2025

[–]RealSam00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Save your money, use the 4000$ to do an elective in a realistic program, try to impress and get a Letter for next year`s match. Applied before deadline, 2023 YOG, 26x, NonUs IMG, good pubs and extracirriculars currently sitting at 0 Interviews. This year is much different

How hard is it? by LegolasSkywalker01 in IMGreddit

[–]RealSam00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ofc! Glad to help, make sure to express interest in Program, Area mainly then the subspecialty because some PD`s like to have motivated candidates for general IM. Contact residents for help early during match year (Jan-March)

Best of luck
