Your application has been carefully reviewed, but unfortunately we have limited interview slots and cannot offer an interview opportunity to every applicant. Due to this limitation, I regret to inform you that we will not be inviting you to interview with our program.

[digest]

Rejection from Methodist Dallas, TX.

Inbox is getting full of rejections here...
Feels like this season is going to be difficult...
Anyone else in the same boat???

 

[drrogerfederer]

Rejection Methodist Dallas. At least it was worded in a decent way.

 

[LekEmDee]

Got rejection from Methodist Dallas as well :-(

[orangess]

UVA reject

 

[GI mn teezi]

My application is better than last year, last I applied with abstracts only, this season I have publications! Ironically, last season I had interviews and this one NONE.
Why? Are there more applicants or what?!

 

[kanka2424]

Hey, why nobody sends me any rejection? You guys get rejections or interviews but I only got 1 rej from Vanderbilt, thats all.

 

[Gulp it]

Hey Teezi. How many IVs did u get last year by this time? I guess it's getting tougher for visa requiring IMGs !!

 

[GI mn teezi]

3 ivs! I am not on visa!

 

[GIBleed2013]

IV from SUNY Stony Brook and Dartmouth. Hoping more to come soon.

 

[digest]

Methodist hospital Dallas

Schakra123!

If Methodist Dallas rejected you, then I am not sure what they are looking for in a candidate

Take care and good luck.
Digest.

 

[Enteroid]

+1 SUNY Stony Brook

 

[digest]

+1 SUNY Stony Brook

Congratulations on this one!

 

[Mr Pancreas]

It's been a stressful experience so far.
I thought I had a decent or even good application, all my mentors said I would match without a problem. So far I received no interviews and 3 rejections. Meanwhile I have got 2 papers accepted for publication and almost done with another two!!!
Don't want to be pessimistic, but I'm starting to plan for next year.
Hope things are better with you guys.
