I still have a year left before I have to apply for residency spots. But I have been thinking ahead, and I have heard that occasionally people are able to work out deals with program directors for spots "outside the match". This is very intriguing to me, because I am really only interested in matching in one very specific area of the country (I am trying to follow my soon-to-be husband who has already matched.) I have several questions about this:
1) Is it legal?!
2) Does it happen very often?
3) Is there any way to subtly hint that you might be interested in such an arrangement? I assume that you can't just come right out and ask, can you?
Any other thoughts on this? Has anyone here had experience with this? Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
WF
