There are old threads about this, but I wanted a modern update, now that signals are a thing.
I used one of my very few, very previous signals on a program that was a bit of a reach. They sent out all of their interview invitations in bulk last week and I was not one of them. Would it be in bad taste to email the PD or program coordinator for a reconsideration? How would I even go about writing that without sounding pitiful or weird? My other greatest concern is that PDs talk and sending this email early on in the cycle will poison me with other programs and hurt my chances of matching.
I'm not really game for asking my PD to reach out on my behalf, because I've already asked them for a number of favors.
