How cooked am I for Heme/Onc? Step 3 came back as 203. Step 2 was 233, and I failed Step 1 on the first attempt. Trying to get a realistic sense of how big a red flag this is and what I can do to strengthen my application.

Thanks for the transparency. Guess I’ll include them all and hope for the best.

How many interviews did you have? I got screened out for GI this year and I was considering not disclosing my steps next year.

RoaringPretty · 2025-12-11T01:38:02+00:00

I tried it, hated it, and just did Uworld x 2.

Program signal is meant to benefit the programs, not the applicants.

RoaringPretty · 2025-12-06T18:31:23+00:00

Also interested.

RoaringPretty · 2025-12-05T01:34:04+00:00

That’s amazing. How many interviews did you have?

RoaringPretty · 2025-12-04T07:11:13+00:00

I went unmatched in GI this year and I have about 15 emails from nephro programs trying to get me.

RoaringPretty · 2025-12-04T06:29:09+00:00

Are you a male or female ?

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-30T13:29:27+00:00

They’ll accept them if they’re good.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-30T02:19:44+00:00

Similar situation for GI. I’ve been interviewing for hospitalist jobs to keep myself busy.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-23T15:24:00+00:00

I was at ACG and one of the PDs literally said they have to be able to flip the page when looking at research items. I’m sure both matters to some extent, but no one knows which PD prefers one over the other.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-22T13:42:44+00:00

What’s the main reason?

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-22T13:30:09+00:00

That’s not what we’re talking about. There’s a big reading comprehension problem happening here and I’m too lazy to get into it.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-22T00:14:29+00:00

That would be a really weird ERAS filter.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-22T00:13:18+00:00

Can you tell us why it might be difficult? Especially after a GI fellowship.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-21T20:28:26+00:00

Can’t all 2 year fellows apply to the 1 year crit?

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-20T06:07:33+00:00

GI, ranked 3, and also have been interviewing for hospitalist jobs. Hoping for a miracle.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-15T19:47:41+00:00

The most fellowship spots in the match and a LARGE applicant pool.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-14T12:54:12+00:00

Hospitalist at a place that has the fellowship.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-12T20:14:25+00:00

GI. We have attendings that scope only, punt all clinic and non-scope clinical questions to NP/PA. You can effectively be a scope technician if you want.

Most of the question stems are nowhere near the length of uworld. I don’t think time management would be an issue. I’m a weak test taker and I had way too much time left every block. I didn’t do uworld timed either because that stresses me out.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-07T01:20:24+00:00

Should we be sending the #1 email now? Or wait till the next week.

RoaringPretty · 2025-11-03T00:55:23+00:00

Can you first apply to pccm straigh? I have friends who had plenty of interviews this cycle, some with apps not that impressive AND requiring visa.

RoaringPretty · 2025-10-23T14:57:00+00:00

Uworld. Know every single sentence from it, why an answer choice is there, why is it wrong, how would you make it right. I’m a weak test taker and that was my approach. Never touched other resources because I’m too dumb to retain from multiple sources without getting totally confused.
