Did anyone here also have a huge letdown on match day? In other words, received extremely positive post interview feedback and then didn't match at the program. My rank list/feedback was as follows:
#1 University of Washington-received Honors at audition elective, wrote e-mail to PD letting her know I was ranking them number 1. Was then told that she was delighted to hear I am ranking them number 1, I'm an excellent fit for the program, and they'd be delighted if I match at UW.
#2 OHSU-received handwritten note from PD that I bring an impressive lists of talents, experiences, skills to the field and that they'd be delighted if I join the program
#3 San Mateo-was told that the residency committee after their first selection committee in January, was very interested in my application and impressed by my fit with the program.
#4 UCSD
#5 University of Colorado-was told that I'll be ranked very highly and actually was!
So I matched at my number 5 choice, but I think my brain did a 180 degree turn when I opened that envelope. I even went straight to the library to make sure that I didn't have a typo on NRMP. I'll be happy at UC but feel so misled and disappointed by my top 3 choices, which I've been psyching myself up for.
