4th year student 234 USMLE no failures, decent clerkships, decent LORs, applying 54+Obgyn progs in NE+random Midwest places. 2 offer interviews Rest declines and some interview offers later rescinded after I called 20mins after getting the email (guess I was on the waitlist- how else would they not give you more than 20mins to reply?)... totally screwed.... didn’t think I’d be a failure.... what are my options?


Replaying Obgyn would look bad (they’d see id already been in the prev cycle).... going back to my old job? No pay.... I applied TRIs and prelims (but used same app and LORs, rejigged my Ps) late....

... very depressed. Didn’t think it would be this difficult... please help

This sounds really odd. There must be a red flag or something more we don't know?

I agree. That is odd. 234 is an above average Step 1 score for OB/GYN. Did you apply broadly to both academic and community programs? Are there any red flags in your application that you can identify? Did you do any audition rotations, and if so, did you get invitations from those programs?

I think you must have a terrible letters or something glaringly wrong. Are you a USMD?

They’re a DO but still. There is something else in the app we don’t know about.

I already mentioned this in their other thread in the DO forums, but there appears to be the possibility of academic dishonesty in their application based on prior post history.

From a 2015 thread by the OP "Getting kicked out?":

No, I haven't received any notice yet, but am receiving messages that foreshadow academic dishonesty. Best case scenario, does AD get put on my record and PDs give a serious side eye? Like, did I just F myself? F.

@fluoropHore what ended up happening with this situation?
