Dear bbb, Could you please clear some of my doubts re:time of application for the match. 1. I heard that incomplete applications(such as when scores are pending) will be put in a 'review' file by the program directors to be looked at a later date when the application becomes complete. Is it true that when they have recieved enough no of applications or when they keep receiving complete applications,they may ignore the ones in 'review' files? 2. I will have all my scores ready by the last week of september. Someone suggested to me that rather than applying on the 1st of September with incomplete scores it would be better to apply later with all the scores to avoid my application being put into 'review file'. What do you suggest BBB?

1. Every PD in the country is going to look at applications in a different way. I can't answer this although it sounds logical - especially when you consider that a program such as mine received almost 4000 applications last year. 2. I've answered this about 8 times and will continue to say the same thing: apply as early as you can with as complete of an application as you can. Define "later" - is that late September, mid October or November? There are so many variables that I will stick with my above statement.
