Seeing as programs can vary from year to year due to the flux of residents, changes in administration, etc, I thought I would start a new thread for us to post anonymous interview impressions.

I will start interviewing later this week. Please post if you've already interviewed - we'd love to hear what you think! 🙂

Careful! Don't be so sure that your posts will be anonymous. You don't have an extensive post history, but by briefly looking at your posts I can identify you as a female who attended GW both as an undergrad and for med school. Unless there is at least one other of your female classmates at each of your interviews, who also attended GW undergrad, your impressions will be easily attributable back to you. And, yes, PDs do read these forums ... especially when they hear that their programs are being rated by folks who have interviewed.

See the interview impression thread stickied above, specifically posts 30 through 39. Unless the "Interviews" account can be resurrected and someone volunteers to receive and re-post everyone's interview impressions, I would be very careful what you post on this "anonymous" forum.

I'm assuming the "Interviews" account password is lost. I guess we can ask smq123 (she's still active, and now a mod) but we might as well make a new account called "OBGYN Interviews" and then keep that to pass on from year to year. Any volunteers? Preferably non-MS4 applying for OBGYN?

it would be great to get this going!
 
Is there a reason you folks are not using SDN's Residency Interview Feedback page? Here is the link:

http://studentdoctor.net/schools/programs/?view=obgyn

If privacy is the concern you have, this would be the best route to go.

I've never been on the Residency Interview Feedback page before. After viewing it, I think it's awesome! I like the graphs and how it's organized. I agree that we should really use it. 😀
