I need some straightforward advice.

Previously matched into a FP program- was forced to resign after few months.

Sat out this year, did some research- Currently reapplying for Ophtho- and have a very good chance at matching into Ophtho this year.

Problem is, my history of previous training was not exactly transparent in my application, and was vaguely implied in my personal statement. Wasn't sure WHERE to include it on my application, since I wasn't "currently in training" nor had I "completed training" at the time of submission. My thought process was, if the question comes up at interviews, I'll explain. It only came up at one interview.

My rank list is due very soon- I'm scared that should I match, this omission will be held against me and my offer will be rescinded. Funding issues are another huge worry for me.

If a program really likes me as a candidate, is it possible for them to overlook this and "make it happen" (in regards to funding)? I'm really worried and not sure what to do.


- should I rank the place that knows about my resignation #1?
- will programs rescind my offer?
- are programs willing to cover the extra 2.5 "unfunded" years?
