Now applied but LORs are pending.
An LoR from an attending who I know will be giving the strongest one hasn't been uploaded yet. I have been holding off on applying until then, but now am worried that applying late might jeopardize my interview chances. You think it's better to applying now with two LoRs and then adding the third one later?
Most of my documents took a day or two (LoR) to show up. I do have a co-resident who said our PD's LoR still hasn't showed up after several days.You can submit your application, then as LORs come in, select and send those. You don't need to have all of the LORs loaded into the system on the day you initially apply to the program
By the by, has anyone else noticed the system is taking its sweet time to upload forms? My MSPE still shows as not received although my medschool submitted it to EFDO about ten days ago. And three of my LOR writers said they uploaded their letters over a week ago but they still haven't shown as received in the system.
I know the website says to expect up to 2 weeks for processing... <sigh> I suppose I just need to be patient.
My 2 letter are uploaded today but PD letter still pending, Should I submit them now or wait for PD letter to upload and submit all at one time? what u guys think?
Anybody heard from any of the programs?
Did anybody hear from any place in specific for critical care interviews yet?
No rejections, no interviews! any one heard from any program who can share the name of the programs?
Anybody heard anything interviews/ rejections from other programs?
It's a rough year for EM applicants. According to the ABEM/ABIM agreement, at least 75% of the fellows accepted by a program must be IM trained. That's the biggest problem I'm running into. WashU wrote a really nice email explaining that they can't take any EM applicants this year.
It's one of those factors out of my control. So it goes.
So it's looking like the future is going to bring about the prevention of aoa IM grads (me) from entering acgme fellowships. There are 5 straight CC aoa fellowships. Hopefully the desire for our field doesn't pickup in the near future when I apply. :/
Makes ya regret not doing ABIM IM doesn't it?
Can IM trained applicants apply to anesthesia critical care programs?I haven't even heard that much from WashU. Although I think I applied through anesthesia.
In terms of IM programs, I have an interview at Pitt and I've heard nothing from GWU, Stanford, and Wake.
Can IM trained applicants apply to anesthesia critical care programs?
I had that about this. I would guess yes. And probably even get a slot. I highly doubt they would let's take the boards though.
Those are the confusions to me as well. getting spot and Board eligible. I would rather not to do if I am not gonna BE.
Interviews (in order received)
University of Pittsburgh
Mayo Clinic
Washington Hospital Center
Wake Forest
Rejections
Wash U (reason given: too many EM fellows in past few years)
Adding to the iv list:+ Cedars-Sinai
+ University of Washington
imOut of curiosity, how many people here are applying to the IM-CCM fellowship after doing internal medicine residency, and how many did an emergency medicine residency?
I went the EM route...
