hi guys my second invitation to interview at a neuro program. good luck to all!

  #52

hi chaf! which hospital invited you for interview? i have one from st. louis, but i got that invites 2 weeks ago. then no rejects no invites up to now.

  #53

Hey Delusion and other Neuro-fans,

here is my first-week review:

1 interview (Univ of Buffalo) :-) I heard great things about them so I am very excited about this!!

1 rejection ( Medical Coll. of Georgia: did not even read LORs or checked USMLE scores... I guess it might not be the most IMG friendly neuro-program...)

1 Pseudo invitation by Vanderbilt. ... I was also in the bunch who got the "you are invited... oh wait... not at this time" emails...
Well, that was not fun, but I understand, these things can happen...


23 responses to go...

How many of the programs you applied to downloaded your application? For me it's 23/25. Programs in DC won't take a look at my application... Maybe they can't take IMGs...

Well, good luck to everyone!!!

hey guys,

If u get an invitation email from a program saying "you are selected for an interview and we will contact you soon with the dates" should you reply to that email saying thanx or how excited you are about getting an interviw. OR should you just wait for them to email u again with interview dates and then contact them.

I really like to know if anyonne has experience with this. thanx


  #59

Thank you so much.

  #60

allegheny sponsors j1

  #61

wat is vanderbilts score requirements. Is it an integrated program and r they past their deadlines?

please inform


  #62

Hi Vijay,
Vanderbilt is not an intergrated program. It starts from PGY2. there is nothing on their website about minimum score requirements and deadline for application. U should call the program coordinator on 615 936 1567 to find out more about that.

  #63

but the application includes a pgy1

its so confusing.


  #64

Heads-up:
(I just got the info)

Hopkins starts reviewing applications tomorrow (10/13) , Emory and Yale will start the selection process 11/1 ... That means that ( most likely) programs are just "collecting data" right now and not even evaluating candidates yet...

hey did anyone got a letter from uchicago?
they have an integrated program already.

  #66

Yeah, I got the letter, too. I think it's great! I would love to do the prelim year at the same place! Any news from other programs?

  #67

Hello IMG-neuro-loving fellows!

I visited an other site for neuro interview updates, experience, etc... (not very friendly one, not very helpful either, THIS IS THE BEST SITE by far!!! ) anyways, that site is for AMGs, or at least they are the ones sharing info there... Well, it seems to me that programs are inviting AMG already and we are only on their backup list.... Which is understandable, (that's what I would do if I were a PD) it just broke my heart and I needed to vent a bit.... disapproval

Well, I hope programs will give us a chance, too!! nod

GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!

  #68

well yeah, thats quite expected. but from my review of their sites. a lot of programs have a significant number of imgs. i dont know exactly know how interpret that hehe. but its mid october already.. i really hope more interviews will come

got a reject from drexel already

  #69

Second week review :

Zero invitation
Zero rejections nod

Few questions, and notes that my application will be reviewed after Nov.1....

I guess after they can't find better (or just any more) AMGs...

I really feel DOWN and OUT.... disapproval
