For the new applicants for the 2015-16 emergency medicine cycle
I have a question...
I have one SLOE from my home institution and I recently completed an away rotation which didn't go well. Fortunately, it will not be on my transcript. I have another away during October from which I can get a second SLOE. If I tell the rotation in October it is my second rotation (I really did three) so they write that on the SLOE, is there any way for residency programs to find out I actually did three?

Why does it matter what yiu tell them. Just say you need a sloe. If they ask though don't lie. More importantly are you able to improve on what caused the deficiencies in your poor rotation.I have a question...

I did something very similar. Matched at my #1. You'll be fine.got my step 2 back today. dropped from mid 240s step 1 to high 230s. any advice / will this be problematic? Still think I'll match somewhere so not quite that anxious, just bummed I guess.
Thanks man. I appreciate it.I did something very similar. Matched at my #1. You'll be fine.
How many programs is everyone applying to?
I'm a US MD student with a 222 Step 1 and 246 Step 2, mostly B's with a few A's, and pretty average EC's. I feel like I have no idea where I stand so I'm applying to 60.
Always remember that SDN represents the top 1% of a group of ambitious and neurotic individuals. YMMV.I see these threads where people with 240/260 step scores are applying to 50 programs so I kinda feel like I have to cast a wide net.
I just started a thread 2016 IMG EMAny IMGs applying???
Any IMGs applying???
Anybody gotten interview invites yet? I know that some programs wait until MSPEs are available in October before offering invites, and I've heard that others wait until ACEP is over before the invites come out. Just curious to see if everyone else's inboxes are as quiet as mine.
Yeah I'm still waiting on my third letter to be uploaded as well. Trying to not be pushy.I doubt I'll hear anything until my 3rd letter comes in
Same. I got one from Lehigh Valley almost right after I submitted, but nothing else. Looking back at last year's thread it looked like the earliest anyone posted an interview invite was 9/18 but most came after October 1st once MSPEs were released. Which makes sense I guess.Its way too early, I got a couple "we are reviewing your application" emails but that is it.
It's been 3 days and you guys are already worried about invites?
