No reason to hold on to interview spots as they continue to come in... never thought i'd be in this situation so early, though. I know I'm not the only one who could slash a couple at this point [ahem, ahem Hamlicar and Emrocks!]

Good idea to start this! I didn't think I would be in this situation either but I am very very grateful 🙂 Hoping everyone has an awesome interview season!

Went ahead and withdrew my app from 7 programs today - no use waiting to see if I would get an interview if there's no intention to go...

I encourage others with full interview schedules to consider doing the same... save the program directors and coordinators some unnecessary work!

Hi y'all. MS4 from Texas here. I haven't used SDN much since this point in med school app's, but I figure I get so much help on here, the least I can do is introduce myself. I'm going to go add my name to the Official Interview Invite thread in a minute, but first I thought I'd ask a favor on this thread: if you're willing, will you please post why you cancelled a particular interview? I mean, I know we all have reasons that some places are better for us than others, but when several schools (ie, Palmetto) get dropped over others, it makes me think I'm missing something. Feel free to PM if you prefer!
My schedule is thankfully filling up quickly to the point where I'll need to start declining/cancelling soon, so any input is great!

This is a great idea. This process is bad enough as it is without making more work for the poor coordinator. Ours looks so stressed! =(

I followed suit this morning and withdrew from some programs. Never thought I'd be in the position to do that!

if you do this keep in mind you do need to email them in addition to checking the box on eras. I was fortunate enough to be able to withdraw from a bunch of programs 2 weeks ago...but yesterday i got an interview from one of them. As apd noted in another thread... eras doesnt really notify them.
 
Sad, since they're great programs (and I LOVE the PD and residency coordinator at GT- they're so nice!)

That's a very good point. 🙂

This morning I emailed them first to cancel then clicked the box on ERAS tonight. Didn't realize it didn't notify them at all but wanted them to have a personal note from me before the any automated message from ERAS. Seemed a little rude the other way around.

I hate the thought of missing out on great programs, but time and loans are limited...sigh. I feel VERY fortunate and grateful to be in this position though.

10? Is that the (average) magic number?

Yes. 99% of US medical grads who rank 10 programs match somewhere (but like 75% get their top 3). So you are supposed to go on 10-12 interviews so you can rank 10 (12 in case a couple rub you the wrong way so you don't want to go there)

A PD I recently spoke to said that it actually has been 92% match rate for the past 2 years. I also confirmed that EM applications are up 25-30% this year, and the applicants are reportedly much stronger than in years past. They think this year is a "spike" year. Reportedly, students are applying to many more programs as well. Also, there are reportedly an increased number of people couples matching in EM this year, which of course means more applications each for those individuals. I guess what I'm saying is, I don't know if 10 will still be the magic number this year...

Don't know where that PD got their data: according to the 2009 charting outcomes: http://www.nrmp.org/data/chartingoutcomes2009v3.pdf the number of US medical grads who ranked 10 or more programs clearly approaches 1. They don't give exact numbers but it's no where near 92. Maybe the PD meant overall instead of US medical grads who ranked 10 or more programs?

I agree there is a bit of a spike this year but there are also a bunch of new programs. Probably 30-50 new spots. The data someone posted in another thread said that as of 10/15 there were 2100 applicants up from 1800 last year.

All things considered it's just not THAT significant. It will probably be harder on FMGs and weak applicants but for the average or above average US medical grad 10 is still the magic number and the PDs I've chatted with agree - none feel that it's significantly more competetive this year. Slighly more competitive yes, more overall apps leading to a change in interview invites yes... but a significantly more difficult match? Unlikely.

And people applying to more programs cannot change the match. It can change interview invites but in the end everyone can only go one place so all that matters is the total number of applicants vs spots.

Rules on how many programs to rank for those couples matching, DOs and FMGs has always been different so that's irrelevant.

I was just sharing news that I had heard that others may have been interested in.

There are clearly a greater increase in applicants than in number of new spots available. And on top of that, board scores, # of applicants who are AOA, and other indicators of "strength of application" are reportedly up this year, which could all contribute to a more difficult match. Clearly that is not what I want since I am applying this year, but I'm glad that I know so I can be sure to make my interview schedule/rank list appropriately.

And in terms of couples matching being "irrelevant," if as suggested there is a significantly increased number of couples-matching applicants this year, that could actually increase the average number of programs ranked simply due to statistics.

I definitely agree that it will be more difficult for IMGs and weaker applicants, but the PD I spoke to seemed to think it could affect stronger applicants as well. While it is true that each applicant can only go to one spot, the PD I spoke with thought that the overall number of unmatched AMGs would be unchanged but many students would go further down their rank list than in the past (and that programs may go further down their lists, too, because of the increased number of applications/student).

Again, just sharing what I have heard since I thought others might be interested! I appreciate your feedback on this, Alwaysaangel- it's good to hear what info other people have gotten from PDs. I certainly hope for the best, and that everyone ends up where they will be happy.

Both are programs I was SUPER excited about, but my husband isn't getting any action at all in terms of chicago area jobs, and I wanted to cancel several weeks in advance to allow plenty of time for other interviewees to be able to take the spots. No chicago for me 🙁 but I hope it works out really well for someone else!

Side note for my own curiosity- what's up with the UVA cancellations? I'd heard that was an awesome program and have it scheduled for after the holidays. Is it just because of the location? thanks!

Unless by job you mean residency, if your hubby has a hard time finding a job in Chicago... Charlottesville will be nearly impossible.

UVA interview day was great.... its a great program.... it may just be an easy one for people to axe b/c its not as easy to get to in terms of travel expense.
 
I canceled UVA because it wasn't somewhere I really was interested in living.
