Hey Mosaic,
My wife got a call from one of the residents as a "prescreen interview" but nothing since and that was early last week. I applied to UI at Peoria FMP and have gotten nothing.

tran6996: yes, I was just as surprised to get it. Maybe the GC and 1 yr USCE helped.
tim: my wife is an OD (optics) and is thinking of doing medicine in the caribbean, what school would u recommend there?
hope this is a good week for everyone .

Mosaic: No, my wife is from Washington state and has 83/pass and still waiting to take CK with USCE of 72 weeks. I was born in Galesburg,IL about 45 miles from Peoria and graduated from Peoria Richwoods so that is our link to central illinois.
BilliardKing: That is a loaded question on this site with some other caribbean grads maybe reading. I will tell you the ones that I think have a good reputation and in no order: MUA (my school 6 years old with NY approval and working on Calif), SABA, AUC, St. Matthew's, Ross, St. George (which is probably the Harvard of the caribbean) and St. Eustatius. There is also St. Christopher but I do not really no much about them and not really sure. I know graduates from St. Christopher and they seemed to be very competent, professional people. All the Caribbean schools have their problems and hurdles to get over when practicing in the US. Some more than others simply because some of the schools above have been in existence for decades and have a reputation. So, take your pick.

I too have reasonable scores, and applied only to FM. Maybe i just applied to the wrong pgms? How can PDs tell? There are just too many ppl applying to it as backups, and I truelly believe this is the reason that SOOOO many FM pgms did not fill last season (the ppl interviewed got into other specialties, and the ppl who wanted to get in did not get interview).
