well there is the whole "interview feedback" section of SDN that makes a specific thread pretty redundant.

The interview feedback section sucks. Everything is at least a year old. I'm all for having a thread for feedback.

Interview section "sucks" because people are too competitive to go and give their opinions regarding programs after their own interview for fear of worsening their chances. A database like that is only as good as those who contribute so the blame lies with the MS4s interviewing (including those new interns/residents who didn't add to it previously for the same reasons)

I think the section would be better served by having residents write reviews on their own programs because ultimately, that's the inside information that everyone wants - information that used to be contained in scutwork but unfortunately, is unavailable now.

Totally agree that info from residents would be much more useful.
They are the only ones who can really gauge a program.

I agree but it doesn't change the fact that the interview section is useless. And like you said scutwork.com should just be shut down, unless you want to know what programs were like almost a decade age...
