Just wondering if it's worth my time to add an updated entry to my program. When I was applying to residency I scoured scutwork and other sites to gather info about programs. But I just took a look at the site and most entries are fairly old.

4th year students--are you looking at scutwork for info?

Residents--are you adding new entries?

I use scutwork sort of like a reverse step 1 score. Instead of programs eliminating applicants, the comments can help applicants eliminate programs.
 
My wish is that scutwork would stay more updated. I've emailed them before (with no reply) asking for entries older than 5 years to be removed. Afterall, residency programs can change a lot over just 2-3 years. Mine certainly did.
