I have been looking at last years Phase II thread and there were people there who had ranked 7 sites and people who ranked one! I think hold your head up high, it’s not over until it’s over. It’s not about how many interviews you get, it’s about rocking the interviews you have! Last year my program had 4 people not match Phase I, and two of them I know for sure had 5+ interviews. Of those who matched, I know at least 3 that had 3 or fewer interviews (one of which only had 1!). Also if you look at last year, plenty of people matched at their top 3 sites, which could mean if they only had those 3 interviews, they’d have matched.
You made some really good points. I guess I'm just caught up on the statistics and data of match rates. Thank you so much!😊
 
Has anyone else not heard anything from Northwestern Feinberg?
I haven't either. Guessing that there was some bug in the system of sending emails as others have said TDs communicated to them. I am planning to email them in the morning since today was the notification date. Expecting a rejection though because invites seemed to go out as phone calls. Who knows maybe someone didn't print out the second page of phone numbers to call and we're both on it 😉
 
Whenever you need me, I'll be here. That's right, it's your old AuntSue, again. While I might have stayed out of your notifications, I've always got my watchful eye on your successes and failures.

Your AuntSue is still waiting on a couple of likely rejections and is reckoning with her place in a world that evaluates "fit" from paper, but the camaraderie you all have shown is a balm for my aching professional heart.

For those with a pile of interviews, iron your blazers and sweatpants and lock your cats in the bathroom, you've got to give this your all. For those who have found themselves with nothing but rejections, ranging from heartfelt to downright dismissive, cry for a bit, wash your face, and then get started on a new game plan. Your AuntSue promises that this isn't the end of the world, even if it might feel like it right now. Regardless, I wish I could pull each of you into my bosom for a Dec. 15th hug.

As always, I'm SO EXCITED for every single one of you, interview count be damned.
Aunt Sue you are a national treasure. Theres matching but imagine matching AND with aunt sue.
