Hi
I have a few questions regarding the match. I am applying for hemeonc this yr and have a few interviews. I am also getting married and my fiance is applying for another specialty at the same time. He is a pretty competitive applicant and has a quite lot more interviews than me. I am not going to go through with the couples match so we have decided to try to do a regional match (but there is no guarantee we would end up in the same area)
My question is in the case where we do not match in the same state/city would I be able to withdraw and re-apply next yr? Or is this a big no-no? Should I explain my situatiion to program directors upfront?
I am trying to decide whether or not to enter the match this year and take the risk of not matching in the same state or just wait it out for a year and re-apply?
Any thoughts??
