Hello Delusion,
Don't feel so downcast. Prelim invitations are rather few as the postions are competitive. What I suggest u do is call up some of the prelim programs u applied to. In addition, get your friends who are already in categorical IM or prelim in instituitions where u applied for prelim to talk to the PCs and PD. U will get some invitations that way.

Hey Delusion,
Have you tried IM programs at the hospitals where you got invitated for neuro? If you tell them that you are a potential resident in their hospital they might consider you for iv. This is what happened to me at most places, except in DC. After I got invited for neuro I got iv for prelim as well. Some prelim program said they iv me if their neuro program invites me, too otherwise they aren't interested. So I think it's worth the try!
Good Luck!

unfortunately, this year neurology is in regular match (not san francisco). it means that number of applications multiplies 4-5 times (mostly img but amg are trying too). so neurology is no more back-up program (like FM or peds). and if you want to get an interview you have to have top scores and other good creds (or wait for a miracle). it is right for this year at least. I believe that after a few year in regular match the most of programs will do very well with huge amount of applications and they will check ALL creds not only scores.

well i think more applicants are using it as a back up program since it is more "accessible" to apply to neuro now its under nrmp. i would think that other imgs would try their luck just to get a visa though they don't really like neuro. no offense meant. but this was a comment from someone I know in a neuro program. she told me they are being swamped with applications. i notice that people got fewer interviews compared to last year.
Good luck to all of us.
