Are there still interview dates / openings?

 

[chasing hearts]

Are there still interview dates / openings?

A handful of spots open

 

[princess_propofol]

Is there a benefit to interviewing on early interview dates (like February) vs late (like April)? Some programs are only offering a few dates and I'm curious if it is all relatively equal or if getting an earlier date is advantageous.

 

[jeeya101]

any idea if NY programs like Sinai or Cornell are planning to release another round of invites? I submitted early January and have not heard from them

yah probably a bit less than last year. I'm sure we'll hit the bottom plateau of applicant numbers soon. seeing a good few of the same faces around lol

 

[Drwine]

The local program director is stepping down next month and I have been convinced to come out of semiretirement and step back into that role. I was given the SF Match applications and I am deciding who to invite for interviews over the next week in consultation with a couple of the faculty.
