I have an interview at GW on 9/17 but would like to trade to the other dates 9/11, 9/24, or 9/26 if anybody is interested.
 
Anyone interested in swapping 13th sep VCU Interview with 20th sep. I am currently scheduled for 13th. PM me asap. Thanks.

So nobody got from Vidant?
That's weird...all of us got trolled. LOL
 
any information about University of Nevada Las vegas ? Also, anyone heard from Cleveland Clinic Florida?
 
Anyone interested in switching interview dates at University of Maryland. I am currently scheduled for Sep 21 and willing to switch to Sep 18th or Sep 26th. Please PM asap. Thanks.
 
Why people care this IV so much?

To answer your question briefly, Vidant/ECU sent out an email to some of its applicants asking them to take a "personality" test called CASPER. It was around $50 to take the exam and took roughly 1.5-2 hours to complete. A few weeks ago, they sent out a letter saying that they will decide on interviews this week. If no one got interviews, then they made those who took the exam waste $50 and (more importantly) 2 hours of their time for nothing.

It’s a risk a lot of people are willing to take. We spend thousands of dollars on applications to eventually get interviews and match. I personally didn’t take that test but they will send (or have sent) interviews to a certain number of people.

It would be considerate in the future if they forewarned that applicants would have an additional test to take and pay for. Otherwise, if you have no intention of paying for the test, you wasted your application fee for nothing.

I reread their email. Seems pretty clear that only chosen interviewees would receive a communication from them, and that it would be this week. I must assume nobody reporting on this board was chosen.

Or the really goofed up

True but regardless, a lot of programs won’t respond with a rejection or an invitation. So i’ll just consider it as one of those.
 
I guess our personalities do not fit the program.
Anyways, What a waste
 
anyone heard from Aurora, Hennepin, St. Vincent Worcester, Sinai Miami ?
 
Anyone know how many interviews are generally sent out per slot? 20? A program with theee slots, for example, would interview how many candidates?

Each institutes are different. I have 1 interview where they are interviewing 30 people for 11 spots and another is interviewing 100 for 3 spots. There’s no rhyme and reason other than whatever the PD wants to do.

On average they interview 10-15 applicants per spot. Cardiology rank lists usually fill within 10.
 
Seems Vedant is playing really hard to get. Rejection letters are on rise. Some programs are yet to set invites or at least nobody has posted anything about them here: Temple, Aurora. Any idea if Maimonides already sent invites, heard their internal candidates got invites this week
 
Currently scheduled to interview at Maryland on 9/12. Anyone want to consider trading dates? Thanks!
 
What do you mean ? Have they sent some rejections now ?

What do

What do
i meant, overall rejections. I have no idea about Vedant in particluar. I meant they caught a lot of our attention.
 
Anybody interested in switching date for Jackson Memorial Hospital? Please PM me.
I am interviewing there on 14th September.
 
Anyone hear from South Alabama, St Joseph in Phoenix, Advocate Lutheran?
 
So Vidant apologizes for the delay, we will have final answers no later than this Thursday

For someone who wants to do IC:
Which one do you think is better ? Mount Sinai NY(Clinical Track) vs. Montefiore ?
What do you think about Mount Sinai Miami Beach?
Thanks
 
Any info on the FAU interview? no details, no info, no time.
Nope, I emailed them last week and have not gotten any response. Tried again today. My interview is on 9/13...I heard the program coordinator had a family emergency, but still. Will likely not rank this program.
