Anybody match from a TY year this year? Or meet anybody on the interview trail trying to do it?
Had me a horror show Monday, had no idea I would scramble.
I had 250's on both Steps 1 and 2, top fourth of my class, heavy volunteer experience as a spanish translator, international em experience, badass hobbies, I'm likable enough that school's having me speak at graduation, had my interviewers laughing. Had three programs beg me to choose them, said I was in their top ten.
But SLORS from July and August didn't make it in to ERAS until late late october. The June personal EM letter never got sent. I am a DO. And I had only gotten 7 interviews.
Yesterday I spoke to some of the people who interviewed me who said they had not thought I would be happy at their program considering how much I love the town I'm in now and the unavailability of the sport I practice elsewhere.
Didn't match. Scrambled into one of the seven places offering a transitional year, the only place I was able to apply to before ERAS crashed on Monday. Applying again September 1st.
How screwed am I?
