Hi everyone!smiling face

Congratulations! to all those who have matched...hec, kali, xthine, taz, calimd....and to those whom i havent mentioned that's out there. I hope u all got matched to ur favored residencies.

I hope that ull all continue to log/check this to give insights/experiences in ur residencies...and somehow, help us who will soon b applying for the match.
Sana kmi din next time mmatch din...

To all those on the scramble...Goodluck...hope u still get to have a residency spot...

To all those who didnt match, there's still next. You have a year to improve ur credentials by getting USCEs, observerships or research experiences.

Congratulations again to those who matched and God bless to all!smiling face

^^Rye..thank you but I didn't apply for the match this year. Just like you, I'll be going for the 2009 match.
How is your prep? Good luck to us next year =)

Any news on where our fellow Pinoys got matched this year?
Thank you for the continued support and guidance everybody smiling face

Alright, I know people are buzzing about the Match and the scramble over the next few hours. Our program Matched this year (yehey!), but I need to ask for help for a friend who is in the scramble process: would be happy to fill any position (although IM is preferred) at any location; has prior clinical US clinical experience; scores in the 90s. If you would be able to help this IMG out, pls give the person a call at (281) 236-3619.

Thanks for all the help. Appreciate it very much!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL WHO MATCHED!!!nodgrin

Kali, thanks a lot for the information you gave mesmiling face

  #566

You're welcome, apricot smiling face

Ok, today is match day - good luck, all! On one of my interviews, a department chair said to us, "Where you match is where you want to be."

But of course it doesn't hurt to gun for no. 1! Good luck! smiling face

Hi guys! I got my first choice! I'm going to Rush University in Chicago! Yehey!!! grin

Hec, kali, taz, everyone else...where are you headed?

  #568

Congrats ustmd for matching at Rush, you will love it there. Just be prepared for the biting chicago weather, hehehe. Matched at my first choice, and I'm moving to west virginia, whoohoo! Tri state area, here I come!

Aw...I thought you'd be at Rush too hec...but congratulations on getting your first choice!!!

I know what you mean about the weather...they don't call it the windy city for no reason! I was there when winter started...hehe! Well, at least I'm only a few hours drive from my family here in Michigan...that's the important thing!

Good luck with residency everyone!

Oh yeah, I'm just curious, what do we do now? Did anyone get a call from their PDs? Or are we supposed to call? Or do we just wait for the contracts in the mail?

  #570

hehehe, I'm sure we will cross paths one day. Besides, my girlfirend matched at Rockford so, I'll be paying her a visit every once in awhile. Im sure I'll be visiting Chicago more often than I would have planned.

Dropped a line to my program awhile ago, and they're also excited to have me there. They'll be sending out the packets with all the information and stuff that I need to accomplish, so I'll be expecting it in a week I guess. Maybe you can give them a short call, nothing will hurt from here onwards...we're already residents, yey!

Yes there's a girl who graduated from St. Luke's Hospital - Philippines that matched in OB-GYN at St. Luke's here in the East Coast. I know an Chinese IMG with previous OB-GYN residency and an old grad that matched this year at Kentucky for OB-GYN. This was her 2nd try for the match and she got lucky.

  #579
