No Thats exactly what I did. You also can apply outside of the match. directly to the programs.

For what it's worth, my medical specialty is "anesthesiology", not anesthesia (sic).

It will be very important for your future interviews to use the correct terminology. I can't imagine any program accepting someone who refers to anesthesiology as "anesthesia", any more than a cardiology program would accept an interviewee who repeatedly said: "I wanna do hearts".

Note that I am only very subtly commenting on your orthography.

I am urology... I chose the field because I wanted to "do wanks" while still being heterosexual. I also enjoy peckerskinning and vagathons and groinitalia.

For those of you who applied outside of the match what is the process like? And can you still match within the NRMP. As a student I rank in the middle of my class with 230 board score. I would think that the applying outside of the match would take my scores into account or would everything be based on my GMO/internship experiance.
