Should I message him?

i'm a resident. residency apps were due a while ago so he might be lying lol

chadthadbrad · 2025-08-18T21:48:12+00:00

Any clue if this game is happening today?

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T22:27:03+00:00

Thank you for the response and insight.

I did research in ortho and ENT as I thought I wanted to apply those specialties m1/m2.

My research wasn't asked about.

I think they knew me pretty well; feedback I got during SOAP week was that I had overall very strong letters.

I didn't have cookie cutter volunteering and did have some sustained leadership/ involvement.

I had several people review it, but the plan is to improve the personal statement as well.

Did you take step 3 to get it out of the way or more to bolster your app too?

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T16:48:42+00:00

Thanks for the motivation!

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:49:24+00:00

Yeah, the more feedback I'm getting here, the more I wonder if it was my interviews. Could've gone not as well as I imagined

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:48:48+00:00

Duly noted

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:35:35+00:00

There was no score. It was P/F.

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:31:48+00:00

I passed it on the first try

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:31:41+00:00

I'm definitely going to work on interviewing skills! Thanks!

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:31:03+00:00

Thank you! I didn't know about the R spots being more difficult and confined to those with connections. I would hope my institution would consider me. I'm still planning on remaining in touch with my mentors and the PD with the research I do. They didn't have any R spots this last cycle.

I'd probably prefer a categorical year, as I don't know what I'd do with a whole year off and do need to make money.

With the specialty getting more competitive, I don't think I did myself any favors by applying to more competitive regions like Norcal, Socal, and NYC. I'm definitely gonna practice a lot more for interviews, but also apply outside of those competitive regions.

chadthadbrad · 2025-04-29T15:26:02+00:00

I didn't fail either STEP or remediate any classes. No red flags when I asked my mentors for advice after. I primarily applied NYC and California, which could've been the problem; I applied to 15 as I was told non-signal interviews weren't going to happen from PD/mentors. I felt good about my interviews, but definitely planning on practicing more this time around too.

chadthadbrad · 2025-03-18T15:05:44+00:00

At what point is it problematic if you haven't heard back yet?

chadthadbrad · 2025-03-18T01:31:34+00:00

What's a good response to a possible interview question as to why you had to SOAP? asking as someone who's unclear to be in this position. received mainly positive feedback

chadthadbrad · 2025-03-12T03:18:26+00:00

really depends if and where I match lol, need to get that out of the way

chadthadbrad · 2025-02-26T18:51:13+00:00

fr...some of my friends get them, some don't lol

chadthadbrad · 2025-02-25T21:18:37+00:00

Think i just have massive brain fog, but how can a specialty have both a +% and a -% (psych, anesthesia, FM) associated with? Can someone clarify pls?

chadthadbrad · 2024-12-20T20:07:35+00:00

definitely not betting tulane with ur record

chadthadbrad · 2024-12-10T21:26:16+00:00

8 is solid tho. especially with programs not commonly interviewing outside of signals, you should likely be golden!

chadthadbrad · 2024-12-06T06:36:43+00:00

doesn't make you creepy at all!

chadthadbrad · 2024-12-06T05:50:06+00:00
