University of Kentucky Ob/Gyn

I see that many of you are getting geared up for the upcoming application/interview season. There are many programs out there even though it seems that there are only about 10 that are written about here (mostly in the northeast and west). Be sure and look at all the options in a particular region.

I want to invite you all to check out our program at the University of Kentucky. We have a new website with more information.

Pele#10,

Our program director and our residency review committee "screen" applicants according to board scores, grades, letters of rec., etc. They assign points to certain criteria. If you have enough points, you get invited for an interview. I'm not exactly sure of the algorithm. Once invited for an interview, the grades and scores take a back seat to overall personality and communication skills.

 

UCLAMAN,

The initial application screening takes into account the entire application. Points are applied to certain sections and then a total is calculated. Interview invitations are extended based on the total point count. Of course, a low Step1/2 score gets a low point for that section.

Kentucky is a nice place to live. Lexington is around 100-120,000 population. Nice people. Beautiful scenery (horse country, mountains, rivers, lakes). All 4 seasons..nice spring, hot summer, colorful fall, cold winter with snow/ice. Easy drive/fly to most surrounding major cities....Cincinnati, Chicago, Nashville, Indianapolis, Knoxville, etc. Reasonable cost of living.
