You'll have to register and pay the fee, but this may be your only bet at this point. Looks like residency program directors are likewise getting fed-up with the NRMP website, since there are new listings getting posted every other minute. Good luck guys.

No kidding. I renewed a few weeks before accepting a spot in my chosen specialty. Nothing for a few weeks, and then 4 popped up for the specialty I had my antennas out for just today. Holy cow.

Best of luck, folks.

I am not a big consipracy theorist but seriously, is residentswap affiliated with ERAS etc - does it seem like they could be just wanting to make some more money?

This really does seem unfair - more money to get another list , all from many people fighting for a few positions. And having ERAS, NRMP so unprepared for what they new would be an onslaught, after all the time expense and sacrifice we have been through. It really is negligent and criminal on their part.

We have given ERAS and NRMP hundreds of dollars at this point. They want to be the gatekeeper and they have taken on that roll. Then, on the one day it counts they can't handle the load? What have they been spending our money on??

What have they been spending our money on??

1) Lawyers
2) Conferences and meetings amongst executives

Sounds like they're going to need a bunch of lawyers after today.

I was wondering if this whole thing is giant social experiment to see what happens.

I had an email prepared with my picture, letters of recommendation, personal statement and other match information ready to go. Just emailed a bunhc of the programs. Not sure it will make any difference

Man, basically the world essentially descended onto ERAS/NRMP and coordinated the largest scale denial of service attack like what hackers use to shut down sites. It can be done!
