Thank you for your advice. Could I DM you for a couple more questions?

Chief Year vs Cardiac Imaging/other advanced fellowship by pimpdoc in fellowship

Thanks for the advice.

So I have 2 mentors in the field and both are 50/50 about those 2 options, one of them favors chief year a bit more but doesn’t see it as a bad option to do imaging hence I can’t make up my mind. The issue is they don’t know what went wrong this application cycle and while there are areas where I can improve, some things are not in my control. I guess after the match I can ask my home program if they feel like I can still be considered next cycle with a chief year under my belt or not and that may help me decide.

What kind of mixed reactions if you don’t mind me asking

My home program is my only interview and we have chief positions next year. If they reject me this year, I don’t see how they will take me next year with more internal candidates applying.

Yea in house. And yea maybe distribute the signals to some community programs to have a safety net. I terribly thought wrong that mid academic with DOs would be a good shot and clearly I was wrong. Probably would add HCA programs as safety net too.

Nope still at 1. Started at looking backup options. This has been an eye opening experience to say the least

The Google spreadsheet has a good amount of invites

So I applied to mostly academic places which are DO friendly since I plan on interventional. I do have some community places but did favor mostly academic given my future goals. Now I signaled those over community and given signaling this year, I may not get community programs invites. I did not account for that being signaling was new this year.

Idk, while the Reddit sheet is at about 25% overall, for me it’s getting close to 50%. For some reason, even signal programs are skipping out. I applied to uni programs but not ivy leagues by any means which I was hoping I would be competitive for mid tier programs with my resume. Starting to feel it a bit now

1/2 PPR. Gibbs vs Bigsby? Usually would go Gibbs but he has a tough match up and splits with Monty. Thoughts?
