God, yes. And the PD's office should strong-arm GME to get you a copy of the contract ASAP. You're not making an unusual request asking for a copy of a contract someone co-signs with you.

This is interesting to see alive >1 yr after I posted it.
I am happy as a clam at my program. In the end I did not pre-match, I went the standard match because I held out for the program I wanted; who wanted to put me in the general match. They said that I would match if I ranked them. So I went with it. Like whopper, I am glad I didn't take the pre-match offer I got.
The best piece of advice I received overall was to rotate at the program you want to match at if at all possible. You will know if you like it and they will get to see how you are.
A one day meet and greet on the interview trail is like watching a preview to a movie you have some insight into what is going on but you don't have the big picture. I have talked to residents who matched at other places I interviewed at and their experiences do differ alot from the first impression we had on the interview.
This past year has been the best year I have had since my senior year of highschool ha ha. I work hard, but I love what I do and I feel it shows.
Hope everyone is enjoying the new residency year.

Glad things worked out so well, countryboy. It's always nice when someone takes a reach for the brass ring and comes back with it. Delighted you seem to have found your niche so well...
