Hi everyone - great forum, have been reading for a while and finally got around to registering
Had a couple of questions about the residency match process (that were also posed on prior threads but not answered)...was wondering if anyone had any thoughts - thanks in advance!
1. If you're waitlisted, do you write the program a note to say you're interested, etc, like you'd do when applying to med school? Wouldn't they already assume you're interested if you applied...?
2. If I haven't received a confirmation cover sheet from a program by now (batch 5), is it OK to call the program and ask?
3. Does the "you may expect a decision about interviews by ___" date mean anything, i.e., if the date's already past, do I call or assume it's a no?
