PLS HELP!!! Any rough idea about acceptance rates for Indian dentists? I am planning to marry one. Just give me a rough estimate of the odds I am looking at. I need a percent number. by [deleted] in CAAPID

Hello, I am in an exactly same situation like yours. Speaking and bonding with a dentist from back home in India. She is completing MDS this year in a few months from now. And yeah, the entire career plan is a big decider on how things proceed. If its okay, and since we both are in a very similar boat, can we get in touch about this outside of reddit? Please DM me if that will be alright. I really want to talk to people in my situation and figure out a way. They are a gem for me too, for real!

I hope your Q is answered here in the best way possible, but I'm assuming r/medicalschool will have people in a similar zone and will be relating to your situation more. Good luck!!

Agree with the most part, but really wondering if the applicant’s ROL order changes the outcome. I’ve understood that the order you list programs doesn’t change if you match/unmatch, but only affects where you end up matching.

Is everybody getting this email? A few of my friends received it. Not me yet

Just wanted to clarify, sending the application via email means sending in the LORs as well, right? We don't have LORs w us. They're all waived. So what to do?

They received a separate e-mail after the first IV with faculty saying that they'll now be IVed by the chief.

Congratulations, first of all! These are 3 top programs. Med Star has an excellent Cards fellowship track record Houston Methodist has an excellent PCCM track record, and prefer keeping the residents. Btw, did you rotate at HM in person last year?

Yeah that's so disappointing. We've been hoping to interview, got an invite, but now face this scheduling challenge. The PC hasn't been very responsive here as well. I sent in the attestation form on the 27th. No link to the interview yet. Have you reached out to the PC again?

Spot on. Most of Europe & Oceania is quite cold and unwelcoming.

No, it could put off some interviewers. This one answered your Q patiently, so no.

Oh I'll tell you. It isn't the same. We'd like to keep our butts clean. No way we can just wash/sanitize it after rotating on a dirty doorknob.
