Yup. They’re Satan.

At this point I’m convinced that the people in charge of match hate med students and want to make our lives stressful because “they had it worse” 🙄

 

[CidHighwind]

There is no reason for them to have titled it that way. Could have been “Website tools down until 12 PM”, “ERAS site closures schedule for 3/16”, or even “HA-ha made you look”.

Seriously, why so many SOAP emails lol? Must know that word triggers medical students.

You must not have been on reddit lately and seen the uproar. The previous president of the NRMP was a MPH and the new one is a BSN with an online doctorate degree in Health Sciences. So the people in charge haven’t even been through the match.

[Drlurker]

Email came early for me (ironically after I said previous years it came late) but I matched! This is my second year applying so my nightmare is finally over. To anyone who didn’t match stay strong! I was in the position last year. You still got this and you can still do it!

Good luck people. Hopefully we all get what we want on Friday!

 

[wysdoc]

Glad to see lots of good news on here today! My MS4 son got the news of a match so our anxiety level has dropped and relief level has skyrocketed!
If you are not in the relief/good news category, get thee to thy Dean's office and start submitting that SOAP stuff. Good Luck!
SOAP support thread is over here ready for you SOAP 2020 Thread

 

[c0pycat]

MATCHED!!!
This is my 2nd time in the match. US-IMG. 1st time applied Psych. 2nd time applied FM/IM. Took step 3 which helped me a lot in getting interviews!
I prepared a lot for each interview.
Have been reading this thread for the past few months! You guys are awesome!

[sharpstickie]

It's crazy that anesthesia only had 1 unfilled spot this year.

 

[iwillnevergiveup]

Quick question....NRMP R3 system tells me I matched and NOT SOAP Elligible...I have NOT received any emails though....what gives? Did you guys all receive email from NRMP that you matched?

 

[sharpstickie]

Check thy spam folder. If it's on the NRMP website, it's the truth.

 

[deleted407021]

Where’s that info available?

 

[iwillnevergiveup]

Yeah checked the spam folder and nothing...I did receive at least 3 emails about the SOAP prior to Match Day though...

Both NRMP and MyERAS show I matched fully.......better not be some sort of system glitch.... (shutter)

 

[Baklava118]

Not matched. Do IMGs have a chance of matching through SOAP? Or do we just get filtered out?

 

[ciestar]

It's crazy that anesthesia only had 1 unfilled spot this year.

Ooh where is this info?

 

[UWIdahoan]

Not matched. Do IMGs have a chance of matching through SOAP? Or do we just get filtered out?

It's possible for sure! You gotta try or the chance will be zero.

 

[mistafab]

Wooo!

 

[deleted407021]

Wooo!

Wooo!!

 

[Sandovalsel]

It's crazy that anesthesia only had 1 unfilled spot this year.

Yea, I second where is this information avaliable?

 

[RHL ONE]

Yea, I second where is this information avaliable?

login to NRMP, go to options and then reports.

 

[Baklava118]

I have applied. Hoping for some positive outcome

[Serenity89]

I doubt hospitals are going to adhere to the <50 people gathering rule. I cannot fathom having a later residency start since the residents leaving will leave a dent in the number of hands on deck.

How soon can we expect our program to reach out to us after we find out where on Friday?
