38 IVs on the list. Still sitting at zero. Applied to about 90. I can see the season is peaking though.. Hoping for the best next week.

Hey Did you get interview date confirmation from Texas A&M. I emailed but no response yet. Unable to reach coordinator.
Going to voice mail.

Thank you

Anyone get an invite from Geisinger or only the letter asking for additional information. Wondering if they sent out invites to some and then had a bunch of candidates whom they are considering but want more information first.

hey In Time.. I'm sure there's more people applying to the separate Pulm/CCM specialities as well and appreciate the info. FYI though, there's a seperate CCM-only thread... http://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/2015-critical-care-im.1078163/#post-15559007

There's still 80-90 programs we haven't heard anything from...hang in there! There's probably more people applying to PCCM than last year, these people have probably all applied more liberally to an average of 40 programs, and programs only interview a certain no. of people. It probably will mean lesser # of interviews/applicant, but overall there shouldn't be a great decline in chances of matching which was about 65% on average to begin with.. IMHO of course

Your rejections are from some top programs and as leo spaceman mentioned, there are many more programs still yet to give out interviews. Although it's difficult, be patient till end of august.
 
just updating on the list.

I doubt many will encounter this (sorry)...but already having to make cancellations because of scheduling conflicts. A few thoughts:

CCF vs. UNC
CCF - website is incredible. The last 1.5 years you can tailor the program to your specifications, they have "tracks on tracks on tracks..." for everything. Pretty impressive website, best one yet. But, and I know this doesn't mean much, reading the last few years threads, there is so much hype about CCF, everyone talking about it, and then I look at the fellows and about 90% are IMGs. If you take offense to that, grow up. Just the implications being...impressive people interviewed (based on the threads) and seemed to have chosen to go elsewhere. Why?

UNC - great hype again on previous threads. Great match list of fellows. Website weak. Nothing stands out, but seems to have great word of mouth.


MUSC vs. UCLA
I'm choosing UCLA because I want to try interviewing west coast (applied everywhere, only gotten 1 from west). But I am sad to not be able to go interview at MUSC as the program looks awesome, great fellow match list, and lots of SDN hype in previous threads.
FYI, MUSC only gave me 2 interview dates.

Welcome any constructive thoughts on these 4 programs to help a fellow interviewer make smart decisions...

CCF - first year fellows are glorified interns; they have their own pulm service, apparently IM does not admit pulmonary issues (can you believe that!). The training is awesome because you work so hard and see so much pathology but if you're looking for heavy research/scholarship emphasis, not the place for you.
UNC - I wish I'd heard from them; awesome program, good pathology, can't beat the location for research, best MPH program out there for what it's worth to anyone.

So what's the deal with Cedars-Sinai not even downloading documents yet!? I mean I'm sure if they have any internal folks, they might want to stay there what with Nobel/Tapson both there now.... a waste of $26?

Did anyone hear back from Penn State after ranking different interview dates? It's been a little more than a week since my invitation but no confirmation of my interview date yet. Getting mildly nervous.
 
Yale re rejection. Programs really need to keep track of their rejections. Still no IV. Geisinger did not get back to me after the inquiry email. Did anyone hear back from GEisinger?
