Pediatric Gastroenterology Fellowship 2016-2017 application cycle

[chikudi]

I've submitted my Peds GI fellowship application, and wanted to create this thread for other applicants to discuss interviews, programs, etc.
Has anyone received interview invitations yet?

Any idea if programs that ask for a CV on their website want us to upload an additional CV to the ERAS application? Seems redundant, and I can't figure out how to upload one anyway.

I think they mean the CV that you already have to fill out for ERAS...

So far:
- University of Michigan (7/18)
- Northwestern (7/20)
- Children's Mercy Kansas City (7/22)
- Wash U St. Louis (7/22)
- Indiana University (7/22)
- Nationwide (7/25)
- Mayo (7/25)

Have not heard from any other programs either way. Congrats to everyone who received interviews so far!

Also, has anyone had a program ask them to send ITE scores? One of the programs asked me to send scores from the last two years, but also said my program can't release the scores, so I'm not really sure what they want me to do lol.

That's great. I thought I don't get invites because programs haven't sent out invitations. Well that's not the case then. Congrats to you too. Can I know your statistics pls if you don't mind like publication, amg or img etc. thanks

Thanks. I am a US allopathic med grad, Step 1: 243, Step 2: 256. Currently in a mid-size residency program (in the midwest, if my username is any giveaway ). Some research and presentations in med school (not related to peds anything, much less peds GI, and no journal publications), and currently working on a peds GI project but no publications or presentations from that yet.

Not sure where that puts me in the grand scheme of fellowship applicants. I find this whole process very nebulous-- much more so than the residency application process.

UCLA has sent out an invite as well.

 

[PoopyDiaper]

Besides those mentiones above, other programs which have started sending out invitations include: UCSD, CHLA, Cincinnati, Rainbow Babies, UT Southwestern Dallas, Mass General, St. Louis SOM, Iowa city, Oklohoma city, Vanderbilt, U of Tennessee.

These places are based on mine plus other residents invitations. Please continue adding to the list to give an idea about which other places are actively looking at applications.

. Heard from both maybe about a month ago. You should email them if you're interested and haven't heard.

 

[Helpertcell21]

Hey, 2nd year peds resident here. I will be applying to Peds GI this upcoming cycle. Any insight like how many programs to apply to, how much research you should have, how competitive, how do interviews go, etc? would be super helpful! I have no guidance at my program because it is a smaller program with only one peds GI supspecialist and he is quite far removed from the whole process.

I am a US allopathic med grad and have just below average to average board scores. Passed everything with no red flags. I am working on a peds GI related research project now, but have research from med school that is on global health.

Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
