For those who didn't match, please share info about open spots outside the match.

You can PM me with that info if you don't want to post publicly.

Potentially important, early in the game... So, I thought I'd bump this up.

Just curious, why would people who did not match want to post this information and make everybody on this board their competitors? Would they not want to keep this info private to maximize their chances of matching.

Hint: The best way to find out if a program potentially has a spot or two to give away outside the match is to compare the program's pre-Jan 31st quota to matched quota. If they reduced their quota with NRMP, they will most likely offer this position outside the match!

I guess this post is for people who DID match and have some inside info or for those who didn't and want to be very sporting.
