Guys
What is considered safe number of interviews
Or save percentage of interviews to match ?
Does any body know based on last couple of years ?
 
Feeling restless/anxious and procrastinating on other work. Made a spreadsheet of programs for everyone to share their thoughts on programs if you'd like to contribute. Hopefully it can be a resource for furture yrs too.

I think anywhere above 10? But 8 gives even >90 percent chance of matching.

Previous applicant here - can’t help myself! My first cycle applying I had 15 interviews, ranked them all and didn’t match. I applied again (much much stronger), only got 5 interviews, ranked 3 and matched! It only takes 1. Y’all are lucky to get ANY interviews and yearly stats are **** so for those of you reading this who only have a few invites… you got this.

NRMP data agrees with this. Off hand, I recall ~46% matching to top rank, ~70% matching within top 3 ranks. It will probably vary year-to-year.

I agree with ~10 being a safe number to match (although nothing is certain).

Is post-call rounding a common expectation for fellows in most PICU programs? I find this structure to be messed up- how tf do you function to stay after a 24-hour PICU call? Imagine doing such 28-30 hour shifts q3/q4.

15 interviews and not matching? That is pretty wild. And yes, post-call rounds sounds terrible.

It is wild but definitely not unheard of. I know a handful of people who had a similar experience to me

Be confident. Don’t psych yourself out and question your clinical skills or research interests if someone challenges you on them. Be yourself - personality goes a long way. Answer questions succinctly. Believe that you are the best thing since sliced bread and make them believe it too!

Most fellowships have a night shift schedule these days.

You’ll have to wait to be an attending to go back to the 24+ hour days.

Just curious, how much are the programs' call schedules factoring into everyone's decisions on ranking? My residency program does 28h call q4 on certain rotations, and while I naively believe I could survive a fellowship with this schedule, I've never had to do it for 6-8mo/year. That being said, the switches from nights to days and vice versa are no joke either.

I think so. Last I heard from was Stanford yesterday and I think it was the last one. Best of luck to everyone and future colleagues on the interview trial and match.
 
Hi all - what is everyone’s thoughts on Thank You notes? I’ve heard mixed things from my own faculty, but only one program has outright said don’t waste time on it.

Haven't been sending them, unless there was some specific item I actually needed to follow up on. My personal take on it is that I have enough emails to read as is, and I imagine they do too.

Anyone else lose all sense of clarity when it comes to what matters when starting to generate your rank list? Feeling more confused than when I started:rofl:

Are any of the programs sending goodies to applicants close to ranking?

You can do whatever you want of course. In the decade plus I’ve been doing this, I’ve never heard them be either mentioned, or if they were, seriously considered in a rank list meeting.

I can confidently say that the PD of our program this year brought up the issue of "interest". It did not help the person in the rank list. Like at all. Just FYI.
 
Best of luck to you all if you believe in luck. I hope you all match in the best fit for you and your future.

I was informed by a current fellow that the 'love letter' emails were brought up during the rank meeting, but they didn't elaborate on whether it helped, hurt, or neutral.

I'm also wondering if it would be beneficial to do a second tracking in this thread, but this time for program 'love letter' communications (i.e., 'We ranked you in our top X').
 
You cannot game the match with your rank order. Don't let the presence or absence of "love letter" communication influence your rank order.

Some programs by policy will not send this type of postinterview communication, and really it should just be banned across the board.

3 non generic personalized yes but also some told me during interviews even if we love you, we won't send one and we don't expect one from you per Match rules.
