What's the routine for interview thank-you letters? Typed vs. handwritten, all interviewers vs. program director, etc.

That's a very good question(s) that I've wondered about as well....

I have been sending hand-written notecards to all interviewers (if I liked the program) or to the chairman only (if I wasn't too hot on the program. However, I have exceptional handwriting--take that into account when making a decision.

Iserson's book Getting into a Residency suggests typed letters with a handwritten note at the bottom. They reccomend sending them to the program director and chairman, with additional copies to the other interviewers.
As my handwriting and spelling are terrible, I've decided to type them and scrawl something short at the bottom.


Hope it helps
