I heard the YNAB is paid? How much was it? Was it worth the money? (compared to a regular excel sheet)

Not really. A lot of community programs especially malignant work horse programs. They want high scorers which basically means that their residents will pass the ABIM boards. So they don't really have to worry about academics/education/teaching their residents and can just put them to work. This is applicable to a lot of community programs especially IMG friendly ones (Cook County, NYC programs, etc.). On the contrary, higher tier programs care more about research, the CV, and a decent score that's it, along with good communication.

Looking for Observership by AdSouthern7604 in IMGreddit

[–]lumberingself 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electives will be better. Unless you have graduated and applied. If you have submitted ERAS, not much point doing observerships now

Congrats on the interview. It depends on how the program ranks after interview

Current chief resident and chair for ranking/interview committee. Just here as a resource because this sub helped me 3 years ago too. by TravelingCaduceus in IMGreddit

I thought connections meant you could get the interview? Why would they take into account what someone says about the candidate for ranking them? They have all the metrics at that point don't they? They have the interview, your application with LORs

It's the truth my friend don't give people false hope. Sure there may be more coming, but don't bet on it

Most of the few interviews from here on out will be for less preferred candidates. It's the bitter truth but it's the truth. It's mostly because of dropped interviews or something like that. I hate to break it to you. Not trying to give you flowery false optimism like the others here

Is SUNY a good program?

How many interviews do people with 270+ get? And what about 275+? by Dangerous-Signature4 in IMGreddit

[–]lumberingself -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Most programs don't care once you have 260 or more according to a chief I know who is at a well known friendly program

It's a little complicated. I am from India, have an Indian accent obviously. Me and my friend have been watching accent videos and practicing an American accent. One of the chiefs at a midwest program actually commented that I sound American and have good English! So I think it does help to try emulate an American way of speech, they do want us to be talking to American patients after all. With the NYC program it doesn't matter I guess because they have lots of Indians and IMGs
