*Pedo interviews 2007*

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Anyone else anxious? Pedo is the only specialty that hasn't started interviewing!

We should be hearing about interviews starting this week.... (based on when applicants heard the last few years).

Good luck everyone!

Congrats skibikegolf! My snail mail invitation came today too! I'm thinking of September, you? Maybe I'll see you there.

I'm glad that we are finally starting to hear back from the schools; I was starting to get jealous with all the other specialties' interviews already underway.
 
nice job guys. Let's keep make the list a running one, so people can look at the last post and see the most recent interview info.

Yeah...you'd hate to be shown up by the organizational prowess of the endo thread...

Congrats on the interviews guys. I'm sure there are many more to come for you. Good luck at your interviews!

Has anyone heard anything from Cincinnati?......I thought for sure someone would have heard something by now.

I am wondering the same thing. Looking at the past few years they are always one of the first to start calling people to interview.....
 
I haven't heard anything myself, but I know someone who received a rejection letter from Cincinnati last week.

Dental Pilot - Welcome to the Pedo Forums! Nice to have you. How's Dr. Wood these days? That guy is awesome! He taught our Pedo courses here at ASDOH. Good luck with the application process!

Does anyone know if there is rhyme or reason to the order the interview letters are sent out? Is it order of preference or maybe alphabetical? Also, when do they stop sending out interview letters?

Thanks for any info you have!

I think they just review the applications as they come in. From my experiences last year, most school send out invitations through October and perhaps the first week or so of November.

Just got off the phone with Cinn. and Lutheran (NYC/RI) called.

Program: Lutheran Med. Cntr.
Date invited: 9/26
Mode of Invite: Phone
Dates offered: Nov. 13
 
Call from Lutheran, except my interview is Nov 15th.
 
Nova: 9.22 via mail (my current school so was expected)
Lutheran Medical: 9.26 via phone for Nov 14th

My PASS just went out to the schools about 2 weeks ago (9.15). I've heard from 6 schools for supplementals so hope to add more, but am stoked to at least have a couple.
 
Would those of you who have received interviews thus far care to share board scores/gpa/class rank? Don't mean to be nosey, just want to see if I'm even in the ballpark of what programs are looking for. I'm not applying this year but might next year. Thanks in advance!

Also heard from Children's Chicago today.

2 questions:

When programs send interview invitations, do you think they typically send them all at once, or are there more later (if we don't hear from a program when others do, give up? or still hope?)

What do you think is appropriate attire for the "social" events of the interview, ie. day before or day after, "dinner with residents" or "tour of facilities" etc.?

1. Many send them all at once, some seem to send them out in 2 or 3 groups.

2. Dress nicely. Not a suit/tie, but a collared shirt and khakis is appropriate for the guys.
