I don't think the excitement really hit me until today. In 48 hours, we'll all know where we're going to end up! How is everyone feeling?

Can't wait!
 
:scared: 😱 :scared: ...my brain is not processing anymore all the emotions that I am feeling
 
Not as excited, just trying to stay hopeful...if you read my recent post about Step 2 CK...which no one seemed to have any input on...hint, hint.
 
- in 48 hours- you would wish!

... unfortunately I think we will have to wait until Friday morning. Even longer! Of course I will check my e-mails every minute Thursday night...

AARGH!!!
 
Good luck to all!

By the way NoSz, why do you find out Friday morning and not thursday???
 
I totally understand. It hit me today as well. I am excited. Hoping to hear on thurs morning rather than have to wait until Friday.
 
I thought programs find out Thursday evening and usually call you Friday morning. If I am mistaken I am more than happy to start lowering my valium now so I am alert and ready on Thursday!
 
From what I understand, programs find out first thing thursday morning and most call you or email as courtesy.
Hope that is true! 🙂
 
From what I've heard from neurology residents, the programs will have a fax from SF Match by Thursday morning. They officially have until Friday to contact you, but that wouldn't be very cool, considering most of these places will only have to call 6 people.

You will probably get a call from your dean sometime on Thursday before lunch. Sometimes the program will get to you first. Hopefully, it's the same for everyone this year. I can't wait an extra day!

Good luck all!
 
Hello everybody!

How does your dean find out about match results, from SFmatch? I am an IMG and was wondering if they even have my dean's contact info...according to my dean, they have not received notification from the Neurology match in the past...

Good luck everyone! Be sure to post your results!
 
definately loosing more and more sleep each night, I hope I hear from my school early thursday, wont be very productive till I hear. Good luck to all!

And a Thursday answer you shall have... It isn't that they can't contact you until Friday, it is that they don't have to.

Thank you, I love you GopherBrain 😍 , I was worried there!!!
Are you lovin' watching us all stress like your group did last year?! :laugh:
 
I must admit, it amuses me a little... I spent more than one night awake looking at the ceiling of my bedroom, alternately imagining my life in SF, Boston, Baltimore, Rochester (NY), etc.... By the time I got the call I could hardly stand it!
 
wow!!!!!!!!!i cant beleive i am soooo stressed out!just praying that all this 'stress' is worth it!and that i get to know about the results on thursday.........an extra day would kill!!i know this might sound silly,but do you think it would be ok to call :idea: your top choice on thursday afternoon to find out?not classy,but is it ok??
 
but do you think it would be ok to call your top choice on thursday afternoon to find out?

Sorry, but no! Don't call any programs! By Thursday afternoon, either your top choice will have called you or someone else will have, to say 'welcome.' Just wait for the call - I know it's tough, I'm sweating it out along with you. 🙂

I feel your stress, but I would be embarassed for you if you called. Nothing could really hurt at this point because it is all done, but I wouldn't do it.
Hopefully you will hear something before lunch anyway! All my friends and family are on stand-by with cell phones so I hope I don't keep them waiting all day either. 🙁
My father-in-law today asked if I had to take it. I explained it for the hundreth time!! :laugh:
 
Its's less than 24 hrs now...Good luck to all. I don't know how many times I will check my e mail and phone tomorrow. But I have started to loose sleep since a couple of days. Too much at stake now, so Good luck to all of you and God bless all of us.
 
I have lost sleep and have moist hands just by thinking about this thing...wish you all the best of luck
 
..and may He be with us all!! Best of luck all!!

Thanks for all the support and help, Gopher.
 
Although i am very excited about tomorrow, I am also very nervous and scared about what if i do not get matched this year. I interviewed at 11 programs and had good scores (99/99), but I am a FMG, and have no US clinical experience (my biggest weakness). Have anyone get feedback from the PD before submitting the rank list? Good luck to everyone.

I heard from one PD about where they would rank me. Of course they can tell you whatever they want and change their minds before submitting the list. I am not sure if this is standard or not.
 
I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight!!! Should have gotten some ambien!
 
On call in the MICU, so no sleep anyway. This is actually a really good thing; I can think about scleroderma renal crisis instead of worry about where I'm going to match (in child neuro) tomorrow. Good luck all!
 
i think i just might stay up all night b/c i don't think i'm gonna be able to sleep anyway. can't believe it's just hours away! hope we're all happy tomorrow...
 
Does anybody know at what time programs start calling?, is it more like 8 am or noon??
