Wow you guys have amazing rank lists that i've seen so far...just have a question for any previous/future posters on this thread = would you mind saying if you are a foreign student or not? I know most of you are AMG's but when I look at your rank lists i know that i probably will not get interviews at some of those institutions (carib student, really good cv in my opinion but still a carib student). So if you happen to be an american img it would be awesome to the rest of us in the same boat with you and that way we could know which places happen to offer IV's and maybe a glimmer of hope that maybe some of the 'big names' maybe even offer IV's as well. Best of luck to you guys, and enjoy the last of your hard partying days!
 
Just want to remind everyone to POST YOUR INTERVIEW FEEDBACK. I know that I found previous feedback reviews helpful and I think it would be very useful for future applicants.

Darkman- for the most part there are places that are good clinical programs (just in a not as "desirable" location) that often interview carib students... like U of Rochester, UMass, Case Western, etc. That being said, every applicant and program is different and a lot goes into the whole process.

**However, this is a ROL thread, so lets keep it strictly ROL's and start other threads for additional questions. Thanks and best of luck on March 19th everyone! I can't wait to see who else is in my future residency class!**

I'm actually surprised at how few lists are clearly regional. Even though it's probably > 50% of the lists here, including this one, I was expecting nearly everyone's to be very regional at least through the top 4 or 5. Lotta coast-hoppers in here!

14 and 15 did not rank.

I absolutely loved the Bay Area and am really hoping to hit one of those top two spots, although I should probably be slapped if I'm disappointed to go to any of the other programs listed up there.

Good luck to everyone!

I'm looking into DC programs, and was wondering if someone could comment on GW vs. Georgetown.

It would probably be better if you started another thread (or do a search because I think I've seen this question before). This thread is just to post ROLs. Thanks for understanding...
 
So...
I've been torn whether or not to post my rank list. But I see how people are curious and may find them useful... and heck, its helped me figure out which of y'all might be my future coworkers.

So here's what I ended up thinking about:

1. Stanford. 😀 Great program, very familiar with the department, family in the area, great location.
2. Duke. 😀 Great program, very familiar with the department, actually like the small liberal bubble that is Durham. So good that I'm willing to make my family move if it comes to that.
3. UCSF. 😕 Ranked highly because of how important family is to me. Didn't have a good experience on my away rotation there-- residents kept getting sent to cover eye cases. But like I said, location.
4. Brigham.
5. MGH.
6. Beth Israel. Boston programs are cold! And big. And require moving the family. But good.
7-9. UC Irvine, UC Davis, UCSD.

5 days left!
