Hey Delusion,
Hang in there Buddy! 
You have great credential especially prevoius training in neuro!! (Even if it was only a few months!!! I wish I had some training.... )
Programs I think are still focusing on AMGs, your/our time will come soon!!! According to AMA ~30% of the neuro-spots are taken by IMGs! There must be a spot for us somewhere ... out there....

Hey Guys I am sorry.
My previous post was meant for Gulliermo not for Delusion even though Delusion got great credentials, too!!
Ooooppssss. I am sorry... I guess this nerve-racking agony and the lack of sleep started to take its toll on me....

I've gotten only n only rejections for neurology- univ texas- south western, arkansas-little rock, univ wisconsin, vanderbilt, tennessee- memphis. I know the programs from which i got rejects r all good ones, but i'm surprised i havent got even 1 iv.
I applied late in september.
Thank god i applied the others too, so i have 3 ivs from im.

I am really worried about the preliminary programs now. I haven't gotten a single invite for a prelminary program interview. I have gotten 5 invites now mostly advanced neurology programs.
My anxiety levels are rising and I don't really know whatelse to do as the deadline for application for most programs is approaching.
Any ideas?

Hey Guys,
I have the same problem so far I got 5 IV for neuro (4 in the last 3 days Fri and Monday) only one is Cat, rest is advanced and only 1 invitation for prelim (Johns Hopkins... go figure.... )
I applied to 27-27 neuro and intern but I guess it is more difficult to secure a PGY-1 position than getting into advanced training...
Where did you guys applied to prelim? I applied on the East Coast, but so far I only heard from North-East programs in NY and MA...
Good Luck to Everyone!!

hey mufurc, thanks for the encouragement... but i have not heard from any neuro programs for 13 days already. the last letter i got was oct 11 a rejection from drexel.. well after no rejects no invites.. only 1 invite 3 rejects as of now...
can i ask which hospitals gave you invites? so i would know my standing with those hospitals at least.
thanks

Got an interview IV from U of Cinncinati today. And then again my first preliminary medicine IV from MSSM(Bronx) program.
Hang in there guys. I pray we all get more IVs in the coming weeks

Hi,
I really don't know how to answer that since I don't know what the programs look out for in these applications. However, I did some research work and obtained some clinical experience working in a neurology unit this summer.That experience gave me some US Lors. But that notwithstanding, I think God is just helping me out since most candidates have more stellar qualities than I do.
Again remember that most neurology residency programs are univesity-based programs and these programs send out their IVs late november and december. So I assume that we all will receive our own fair share of invitations soon.
All the best
