dear all,

i am an img, step1 score 89, step 2 score 97, step 2 cs passed, ecfmg certified. grad dec 2001. i applied to 26 programs on 22nd sptember. i have received 6 rejections and no interviews. i am so worried that i don't know what to do? not even one interview....i don't know what should be my next step....i have applied to paeds and internal medicine.

Call up the hospital closest to you and tell them you want to do your residency from there as you live close by......and have no interest in any other residency program(which is the truth!).If they understand your situation they may extend an invitation to you......you do have good credentials!

thankyou....i will definititely call and be pushy and annoying ...sticking out tongue if that is what it takes. thanks a ton for your responses. i feel slightly hopeful now.


  #9

until when can we hope for interview invitations. seem like the programs r not responding as quickly as we thought. i m not getting much interviews nor rejections. confused
