no need to suffer 23 days ..
and the month wait is actually the shortest of the waits...ITE and Board certifications results are 2-3 months...The match algorithm is done within about two days--the rest of the time is doing double-checks, checking integrity of the system, et etc. I don't know about others, but I was happy wait an extra few weeks if it essentially nullifies the chance of me being told "oops--you actually didn't match to that program," or worse, "you didn't actually match at all." Of course you could also be told you didn't match at all only to find out you actually did. There's a reason it takes so long.
OK--I was actually kind of annoyed by it. But in hindsight you realize a few weeks really doesn't make a big difference. Eat, drink, be merry, an enjoy 4th year.
yeah, it would be nice to know where earlier so my SO can find work and us a place. But, it is what it is.......I don't think waiting a few weeks is a huge deal, but finding out earlier and having a few extra weeks to find apartments, etc. would be nice
