My heart was pounding and I could barely click the email....

In the end it was worth the agony. Thousands of dollars for four sweet little words!

"Congratulations! You have matched."
 
Yes me too and time to have a scotchy scotch to celebrate

Hope Thursday works out for everyone

Wow that was intense. Been up since midnight...I was overwhelmed when I saw the happy words...
 
matched, did you see that all pgy 1 are gone and somethign like 16 pgy 2 spots are available. my guess is those are gone through prematch. thank god i dont have to scramble
 
MATCHED!!! With only 8 interviews and a 215 on step 1!!!! All you 3rd yrs out there, dont listen to everyone who gets a million interviews and has at least a 250+ on this forum, you can do it too!! 😀
 
I matched Advanced but did not match for an internship...so I was able to find out where I am going!

Should I wait till Thurs to post where?

I know this has been covered but I can't find the post right now

My email says "Congratulations, you have matched". That doesn't mean that I matched into a categorical program right? I could still have matched both spots for an advanced program, correct? Thanks and congrats to the anesthesia c/o 2013

yeh the cruel people at nrmp dont even throw you a little bone like that. You could be matched to either categorical or advanced. all it means is you are fully matched

Matched...booyah!

I think a quote from a Tom Petty song is appropriate here:

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part

I do have to scramble for an intern spot however - not a big deal as I already have an Osteopathic site worked out at my home program.

Let us know! You can be the first.
 
Came home early and booted the laptop with my wife and 2 year old on each side of me...he had no idea what was going on when we were jumping around for joy!

Thursday will be saweet!
