Most invites won't come til after 10/1 I think...or at least that's what I've been hearing people say. I wonder when TY and prelim invites will start rolling out?
Yeah. I really hope that i get some invites. Prelim/TY is very competitive.
Yeah I feel that way too since everyone is trying to get those TY programs...
I agree. I would be happy with prelim surgery if get some
No iv so far. Reject from upmc
Are you IMG?
@GrandBuckeyeOH91 Yeah. Old IMG, rad residency in home country, step 1 > 250; step 2 > 260

Stay positive the invites will come!!
Thanks. How many prelim/TY programs have you applied?
P.S. Ignore the above message from "aaroo". Its is my wife's account and she is applying for anesthesia, We are using the same macbook and I logged in by mistake.
I applied 15 TY and 10 preliminary med programs. Some of my rads programs are categorical (don't remember how many)
Are you IMG / FMG ?
U.S. allopathic lol
I love the tranquillity of your response with the "lol".
Are you a resident already ?
Nope, just applied like everyone else! I just haven't been posting my interview invites on here.
I'm anxious just like everyone else is!
Thanks for not getting everyone tensed. Let us know how the ivs go..

It seems like the other IMG students have gotten interviews too so don't worry!
I haven't 🙁
How many programs did you apply to? And what kind of programs?
I basically applied to every program than sponsor a visa and have received IMG ... About 142 rads programs and 100 prelims
I haven't too. Probably caribbean IMG's have got ivs and not other FMGs

St. Joes, Mercy-Okland? I didnt know they already sent out invites. congratz! Any connection to them?
Huh, interesting! Also didn't know they had sent out interviews. I personally am a DO applicant who has a connection to the St. Joseph Mercy system... it's well known that the SJMO program is very friendly to IMG/FMGs.
