I heard from UNC on 9/20 and Wake Forest on 9/28. Had my app complete sometime in the first week of september.

 

[tiredmom]

Thanks - that makes me feel better. I can't imagine Duke and UNC would have just one massive invite. At least we aren't doing ENT - my buddies are just getting their first ones now - and most haven't gotten anything.

 

[sizzlefizzle]

Hey Michimo, i applied to UMDNJ New Brunswick.

Got Mt. Sinai interview today.

for someone who asked about Brigham: got an email from them saying "your app is complete, we will be inviting those who will interview after dean's letters are received after november 1" or something to that effect. So, the waiting continues.

 

[superspec]

Mt. Sinai as well today.

 

[bellalou]

thanks for all your answers! it seems almost random though. the only 2 i am getting worried about are hopkins and unc since it took a couple of days for some people to hear about interviews. i should have sent everything in sooner, but i was completing a sub-i in ob/gyn and wanted to make absolutely sure before applying.
😕

 

[superspec]

Well, bellalou, if it makes you feel better I had everything in on the third of september and still haven't heard anything back from UNC.

Damn tarheels.😉

 

[superspec]

Clearly I'm on a radiology elective and have waaaayyy too much time on my hands, but I just heard from Parkland as well. Looks like there is a little more activity today, thank god!

To date:

Hopkins
Emory
Duke
Univ. of Chicago
Baylor
Parkland
Mt. Sinai

 

[jkb]

[bellalou]

For those of you waiting on Hopkins, I just emailed the residency coordinator and she said that they are completely full with interviews right now! Perhaps this is just me, but I asked to be on the waiting list. If you are interested in Hopkins, you should email her now because she said that there are not many on the waiting list for interviews.👎

 

[bellalou]

Oh - I should also say that if anyone does not want their Hopkins interview, I would be more than happy to take it! 😉

So I only have four, and a big hole in my stomach: Case UH, Case Metro/Cleveland Clinic, Duke, and Emory

Oh and the waiting list for Hopkins....

Blech.🙁

 

[kmmymac]

Here's my input:
Application completed second week in Sept. Low Step 1 scores (nowhere near the average), did okay third year, and AOA, HAH!

Interviews so far:
U of south Alabama
UCLA Harbor
Kaiser Oakland
Penn State
Washington Health Center
New Hanover
SUNY stonybrook
Drexel
Franklin Square, Baltimore
Maimodes (sp?), NY

Question: Has anyone heard anything about the program at SUNY stonybrook? Their dates are conflicting with other interview dates, and I'm down to deciding between them and New Hanover for which one to go to. Any suggestions on how to choose current programs that are interested in you while hoping and waiting for others to maybe come through?

Still hoping for responses from UT southwestern, exempla denver, Phoenix integrated, Hawaii, oh, and Case Metro, that even being where I'm a student! 😕

[superspec]

Anyone hear anything yet from UCLA, UCSF, UCSD, Stanford????? Or have any idea when they traditionally start inviting?

[SailGirl]

I heard from mt sinai the day after my 3rd and final LOR was uploaded to complete my application...

Anybody heard about the differences between umdnj camden and new brunswick??

I don't know much about Camden other than it has the highest crime rate in the US; New Brunswick has really great attendings, especially the MFM departament is really awesome. It is not even close to being a "malignant" program. Somehow it ends up with a couple of IMG each year but overall I think it is a solid academic program.👍

 

[SailGirl]

since both of you heard from Brown today, should I assume they just had one mailing list?

 

[bellalou]

SailGirl:

When did you get your app in and complete? It could be a timing issue.

I sent in my CAF/transcripts 9/25 and my last LoR was in 10/5. I heard from Brown today. I doubt they had just one mailing list!

Good luck!!!!!!!!!

 

[tiredmom]

I had CAF in on 9/6 but my final LOR didn't come through until 10/3.

Is there a polite way to decline interviews? I'm starting to realize that there is no way financially that I am going to be able to get all of this done Trying to coordinate this is kinda starting to be a nightmare...

Thanks Bellalou
I sent CAF 9/9; transcripts 10/1 all LOR were in before transcripts. I guess I just need some patience and fait and and...

 

[tiredmom]

Sailgirl:
I don't think they send one massive invite. It made me feel a little better to scroll through the interview threads from last year and the year before, to see that the bigger programs kept inviting people throughout October, usually. (I didn't look for Brown, but UNC invited accross late sept through early nov). Keep faith. Good luck

 

[SailGirl]

thanks Tiredmom
I guess I just have way too much time during my research elective, I check my emails constatntly, I better stop that 😳
have a great weekend

 

[bellalou]

So I emailed Pittsburgh to see if they had looked at my app, and they said that they didn't get my letters, transcript, USMLE transcript etc and my ERAS tracking program says that Pitt has downloaded everything (except MSPE of course). So that is scary!!!!!!

I emailed ERAS yesterday and haven't heard from them.

Anyone know of a phone number to call?

Just some info for people waiting for interviews. I guess it is a good thing to confirm that they got all of your stuff.

😡

 

[superspec]

I got Vandy last night as well, at like 9:30 which was kind of weird. Bellalou, that is pretty much the worst thing I've ever heard....hopefully the admin assistant just misplaced them?????? Would hate to think there is a systems error at work here.

 

[drmom2007]

I contacted UMASS yesterday and they stated they would be distributing interviews starting next week. I also contacted UCONN, but they didn't respond as of yet.
