ITE results?
Started by sonofva
Got ours today.
Our PD got an email yesterday that FedEx was delivering a package from ABEM. He said he assumed they were the results. Haven't heard further though.
They came out yesterday. You may not have them, but your PD does.
We found out our scores today

Do ITE scores play a significant role in determining fellowship prospects?
Program leadership likes people with higher scores better, so probably plays an unofficial significant role
No. Just don’t fail.
Oh, we got them

What kind of premium?
I am applying to fellowships as we speak, and a few places have asked for copies of my ITE scores.
How they actually factor into the decision making process, I'm not sure.
Nobody ever asked for mine while applying to critical care. As far as I know my colleagues going into EMS and US never got asked for theirs either.
Interesting. Which fellowship are you applying to that's asking for your ITE?
EMS. I have had two applications that specifically asked for copies of my ITE score.
That's nuts man. Glad I never had to provide them because I never studied for the things. I figure when it's time to take boards I'll knock out a review course and just get it done.

I've heard "you get out of residency what you put into it" - I'm going for clinical genius status and reading as much as I can until I either get bored of reading or burn out. Will probably coast thereafter.
You do get out what you put in. Just be cautious when trying to equate test scores with clinical acumen. Nobody comes out of residency a clinical genius.
I sense some sarcasm...in which case, well played!
Otherwise you are in for a huge wake up call.
