Members don't see this ad.
 
Hi guys, do programs know how many times you applied?

I ask in hope that when I apply next year, programs will recognize my dedication.
They will!! Keep applying until you get in.

For candidates that interviewed in July with Boston U, when did u hear back if you got accepted and if you weren’t, did they tell you that u were declined. PM me if you don’t want to post it.
Thank you

I interviewed on July 20th and have not gotten any word from them since.

Curious as well when folks heard back. Seems like they Make the decisions in batches? Is the class full yet?
 
From an instagram post from "predoc_endo_tips" it seems UofP is having interviews today
 
Members don't see this ad :)
Buffalo admission said they began to send invites! I don’t know details!! Anyone knows ?
 
Sorry, I have to clarify, UofP is University of Pacific?
I have no idea. Instagram said UofP. I'm not American so you would probably know better than I do tbh. Unsure if that's Penn or Pacific
 
I'm looking to apply next cycle. I have a 3.56 GPA and was ranked in the bottom half of my class (35%--I'll be honest, I didn't try because I didn't have any plans to specialize). In the last year alone I've done just shy of 400 RCTs as most of the endo's in my area don't accept medicaid (other offices refer them to my office because of that), I also do retreats, and am awaiting my first straightforward and indicated case for an apico. I've kind of heard that most of the programs do not like GPs bragging about the endo they do or think they know how to do, so I'm not sure if this is even helpful at all.

I understand that it will probably be a long shot for me, but what are some things I can do to increase my odds? Should I take the ADAT? What are the best ways to network with the programs? I'm willing to apply for 5+ years until I get in.
 
I heard Columbia exclusively admits students with Asian nationality. 2/3 of its residents alway are Asian same as program director.
2/3 ≠ "exclusive"...
Also, how many schools are 100% white?
The discrimination against Asian applicants literally went to the Supreme Court a couple weeks ago. Come on…

I also did a lot of molar endo prior to residency, but you're correct, don't brag during the interview process. If they ask you then you can answer but stay humble, no PD wants a someone in their residency who thinks they're too good to learn. But it will definitely help you later, because after I was accepted, my PD did ask each of us how many we'd done in the past and it feels to me like he's given me a longer leash than my co-residents (fewer check-ins and not a ton of basic questions like "what clamp are you going to use?" or "what anesthetic and how are you going to administer it?")

Things to do to improve your applications: join AAE and go to the conference, listen to the webinars (a lot of them are given by program directors), if there's a program you really like then reach out and see if you can do a day visit (preferably closer to application time so they remember your face/name). Take ADAT if you have low GPA/rank and get a decent score so they know you can handle the rigor of residency.

I'm going to intervene and remind everyone that this thread is to help with the process and give guidance. Please direct all questions about race and gender to the PD if you feel some type of way. If you're unwilling to do that, you probably shouldn't talk about it here. I know emotions are high, but let's keep this professional. Thank you. The school list has been updated.

I see, though I highly doubt this - offers were made in August last year
They said the class will be complete by October. I’m thinking that’s different than offers being made by October. Offers made— accept or decline— class filled.

So hopefully offers will be made a lot sooner

I can't believe we haven't gotten word from UPenn... On their website they say they invite 40 people to interview! Have none of us been invited to interview!? Have none of us heard of someone getting an invite? ENDO TEAM UNITE!!!

They had Symposium in Thailand at the end July. Also, new residents came in at the same time. Maybe they just started to review the apps. So, hopefully we hear something this week.

Just fyi, for University of Pacific, offers have been sent out
 
There were a lot of people who were waiting for an interview invitation from Penn.
Have you all been invited?:cryi: losing my hope.

I haven’t. I’m hoping the invites are still going out since there are 40 interviewees usually. I would suspect it being a few days of interviews too?
