A big take-home from this season: there were a LOT of places who signed up for ERAS and took our fees with no intention of interviewing (not everyone listed above, to be fair, but also there is no way to count sham interviews). Would be nice if HRS addressed this in the future.

Yale, VCU, and Cedars have already sent invites, per applicants on the trail. Anyone heard anything from Duke or WashU?

Besides those two and Penn, other places that have been radio silent on my radar: UF, UTSW, UChicago, Loyola, St Vincents, Rochester NY. Doesn't look like much else will be coming in at this point.

MUSC has also been quiet. UF used to advertise that they were full for the 2020-2021 year and took it down before ERAS opened. I imagine they are full. UNC and UVA and Wake Forest are confirmed to have taken internal. I have a friend that has VCU scheduled (I did not apply) but can confirm that they have sent out invites.
 
Got Mount Sinai NY today so seems not filled internally...

Emailing the coordinators at Duke and WashU today to see what's up. Will post on here if I hear back.

As for Penn, they said they received >80 applications in this "unusually competitive" year. That was the total number of applicants nationwide last year, and I doubt everyone this year applied to Penn.

That being said, if you can't see yourself actually accepting a spot at Penn, or have no interest in VT, I'm sure lots of other applicants interested in specializing in VT would appreciate you declining and opening up your spot. Penn is a bit of an angry unicorn and people with specific VT interest likely stand to benefit the most from an abusive 2 years there. I think it's fair to say that as many interviews as everyone is going on, there's not much purpose (or dollars) in a tourism trip just to experience a place.

Did anyone who applied to Penn not get either an acceptance or rejection today? Wondering if they are keeping some people on a private waitlist of sorts.
 
Planning on not going there in first place due to malignant nature of the program. I don’t want to stay till 10 PM and aso getting yelled at everyday.
 
Yes Northwestern rejection. Finally something from a Chicago program. Lol

So I just looked at NRMP site and it seems Penn has reduced its matched spots from 6 to 4 indicating they have given pre matches most likely to internals?? On their website they say all spots will be filled through match which is not the case now. I guess they seem skeptical that people they really want may not rank them higher so decided to give them pre match. Another clue of malignant nature of the program.

Some programs accept externally funded fellows, often with contractual partnerships from foreign countries, [predominantly Asian]. While my personal opinions on the nature of Penn are likely more aligned with yours than not, I am not sure a reduction in numbers is reflective of malignancy. I am also certain that achieving mastery of complex VT ablations does not require the long hours Penn necessitates, but I have yet to meet a poorly or even mediocre trained Penn graduate. They all seem to have mastery of complex ablations. For someone looking to achieve those skills, Penn would be a highly ranked program.

Lol. You seem to be a very diligent prosecutor hired by anti-Penn lobby. Anyway, jokes apart Penn is a program designed for candidates with a very specific interest and career goal.

Lol that’s not the case. I know they have one of the best VT program. Plus they are exceptionally productive with respect to VT research as well. I agree its for people with very particular interests.
 
I guess its middle of interview season for everyone. When it comes to landing an academic job, what do you guys think about the programs you have interviewed at? I think Michigan, Mayo, Vandy, Hopkins, Harvard programs, Penn(yet to interview) are best bet. Again, this is only with reference to those of us who are quite certain that they want to stay in academics. What do you all think?

Would add UC programs as well (UCSF, UCLA and also UCSD). Also have seen people landing good academic jobs from programs such as UPMC, NYU, Mount Sinai and Cornell.
 
How many interviews you guys are planning on attending. I cancelled a bunch and going to 8 (or may be 9, last one I am not decided yet to go or not).

Finally official rejection from Cleveland Clinic today. 😀

Most hilarious rejection ever hahaha.
"We have reviewed all applications and have sent out all invites for interviews. If you have not received an invitation we would like to thank you for your interest, but there was a lot of interest and so many very good candidates to choose from. We are sorry we could not interview and take more but that is impossible.
We wish you the best of luck in your future."

Sincerely,
Millie Cuevas & Dr. Bryan Baranowski

Can anybody comment on Ohio State and the likelihood of accepting internal candidates. (If you are one of the internals, would you PM me privately.) I am scheduled to visit in October although the whispers of two interested internal candidates that will likely match there are getting louder. [I believe programs should be able to take internal candidates -but I would like to save both time and money if they are mock-interviewing.]
 
I heard something similar about U Chicago - mock interviews. Would like to save a trip if anyone knows about that
 
From reliable sources: At Ohio state, they are definitely going to fill one position with an internal applicant. For the other position, they are considering the other internal versus outside applicants. The other internal applicant apparently also wants to stay in the program.

I doubt that, have met this internal applicant at some interviews, I guess he is exploring outside options.

I didn’t mean to cause a he-said she-said. Just looking to avoid paying another few hundred dollars if there is minimal chance of matching at a program. I’ll try to reach out to the program tomorrow.

The internal applicant is doing other interviews just like his program is interviewing other applicants. As I mentioned, that program is considering outside applicants for second position as well as the other internal applicant. What would you expect the other applicant to do? He has to explore other options as he cannot put all of his eggs in one basket when his program is interviewing other applicants. I would do the same if I was in his position.

We are just having a healthy discussion for the sake of sharing information so that it can benefit everybody. So no worries about any argument.
 
Does anyone know anything about the Beaumont program? Decently sized faculty but don't know much about it. Appreciate anyone's insight!

Guys, any idea on UCSD EP fellowship program? Going this Friday. Thank you.
 
Just an FYI; this was sent out last Friday. Does anybody have any information on their program?

Dear Program Director/Program Coordinator,

The Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Fellowship Program at Brown University/Rhode Island Hospital has one unexpected opening beginning July 2020 with an expected completion June 2022. Clinical fellows who wish to apply to the Brown Program should submit their application and supporting documentation through the current cycle of ERAS for review and interview consideration.

Kindly forward the above message to your clinical cardiology fellows for consideration. For any questions, please reach out to me via the contact information below.

Thank you,
Jane Freer

is there any interest in starting a slack group, like they did last year? seems like it might be a smoother venue for sharing the latest intel about spots filling internally, red flags that programs weren’t upfront about, etc.

Plus it might be cool to see where everyone ends up after all this, since so many of us have gotten to know each other at interviews.

Just throwing that out there
 
I like the idea

I like the idea too. I am more of a whatsapp user and have never used slack. What kind of app other people use here?
 
2020 applicant and intermittent lurker here. Would be interested in slack group. Thanks for everyone’s insights throughout the process.
 
Good to have met some of you on the trail. There is a WhatsApp group. Please PM me for a link with a direct invite. Please feel free to invite anyone once joined.
