Family Medicine. I know that makes my chances even better, but it gets more and more competitive every year.

Haha. I also interviewed at around that many and also keep thinking of it as "so and so many days until I find out that I matched". In many cases, even if you end up at your last place you can find a way to be happy if you try.
I would be super excited about my top 13, next three would fine, after that it would be a disappointment. But just matching in general is my biggest concern. I will make it work wherever as long as it's somewhere!!!!
 
Another "NRMP 2015 SOAP Email" today at 9:01am. This is crazy 2 emails in / days. Got one yest, today, n will expect another tomorrow! MHope U guys okay?

i ddin't get one yesterday. does this mean i won't match?? jay kay. but i really didn't get one yesterday, got one this AM though.
 
One was from ERAS one was from NRMP. Say the same thing basically. Want to make sure we REALLY know this time lol
 
My plan: rooftop at sunset (must not touch the computer till then), champagne in hand, with the hubby and kiddo...let's see where the next three years of our lives will be...

Best damn idea ever. Just spoke to my wife and we're gonna do something similar. We're gonna head to a place that has a lot of meaning to us and we'll find out there!

But we aren't gonna wait for sunset....are you crazy?!?

Thanks for the idea!

D.O. student here....school doesn't have a match day celebration (what a surprise) 😱
This may sound crazy, but a friend and I didn't want to miss out on the festivities....so I designed custom pocket tee's (yes frat all the way) for us with match day 2015 on the front pocket and on the back it says "I Matched At..." and then has a blank line underneath that.. he's going to look at my email and me his...we will write in the program and present the shirt to each other. Nfl draft day style!should be fun. I mean match day only comes once a lifetime if we're lucky right?

Haha hopefully we all with be lucky. It's interesting how you are planning festivities.
 
I'm in Chicago (obviously!) and I don't really know what I'll be doing if I match. Probably drinking so much I won't remember what I did.

If you've failed step 2 and don't have a passing score at this point and you end up not matching next week, is there any hope for a match in the SOAP?

I mean....No. Was it a failed retake as well or just the score hasn't been reported yet?

If the score isn't released yet, you think any hope? Seems odd that you could have a good chance in the match without a step 2 score but no chance in the SOAP.
