Got IV from UBuffalo but they gave me just ONE date within 10 days, and I am already interviewing that day... Now is it professional to ask my first IV to chnage a date so close to the IV or shoudl I just refuse UBuffalo?

UWash by a country mile. Maryland is a fine place but kind of suffers by being in the shadow of some big fancy hospital I can never remember the name of. RPCI is a better research place than clinical. But it's not bad on the clinical side and it's the only NCCN institution in the area, so it's got that going for it.

Depends, which is a "better" program for you? I'd honestly ask UBuff if they can offer you another day before trying to get the other program to change. But figure out which one you'd rather go to and go from there.

Thanks! The other one is UWisconsin. And I already asked UBuffalo - they do not have any other dates. It would be sad to miss an IV opportunity but I guess that's the way it is!

How early did you start drinking today? Skip out on Wisconsin/Carbonne for B-Lo/RPCI?

Just realized what happened. It wasn't PC s fault. I replied at wrong address. You are suppose to scroll down and read the whole message before replying. :bang:

There might be a cure for cancer but none for stupidity !!

you should be happy to get 2 interviews this late in the season. one of them is actually a great interview. I don't think you have a very difficult decision to make
 
what do the senior posters think of Wash U vs Vandy vs Indy for a well-balanced training in solids. any big differences?
 
After cancelling an interview, do the PCs usually email back confirming a cancellation?
 
gutonc said:
Wash U or Vandy. Indy is huge in lymphoma and ball cancer but not as broadly strong as Vandy and WashU.

Thanks. It also helps that both St. Louis and Nashville are much better cities to me than Indianapolis

They all suck pretty hard though.

NashVegas is at least interesting, and STL is cheap (if a little tear-gassy at the moment) and neither of them are Indiancrapolis, so they've got that going for them.

Thoughts on brown vs Nebraska in regards to clinical training, lung, an clinical trials?

Thanks
 
GutOnc,

Since you have gone through the whole process already...do you have any recommendations on things to consider when looking at fellowship programs? Particularly, was there anything that you didn't think about when you were applying and interviewing, but became an important factor for quality of your training/happiness as a fellow.

Mayo-Arizona today. Only date is October 7 (Tuesday). Any thoughts on Mayo-Arizona?
 
CCF as well. date is extremely difficult for me. any thoughts on this versus Mayo?
 
Forum seniors ..what do you guys think about "second look' for programs one is really interested in. Do programs entertain that ?

Thanks gutonc ! Thoughts on u cincinatti vs UT San antonio ?

Depends on your interests. From a clinical perspective I don't think there's a whole lot to separate them. But UTHSCSA has one of the best Phase I clinical trial programs in the country so if that's an interest of yours you'd be well served to check it out.
