Hi harry 99.

Your creds are awesome. To be even better, you maybe get more USLORs.

not just ur credentials but ur attitude.

Don't lose your battle before you've fought it. Put in your all for this match, and if not match then post-match before you start thinking about next time.

hey harry, on what speciallities did u apply?

  #10

I find nothing wrong with the man's wish to improve his application. also I advice you harry to enroll in an externship ( http://tips4match.blogspot.com/2006/01/hospitals-... ) or send some mails to some professors asking to accept you in doing some research. you got one year in which you could also volunteer maybe in an US hospital, just to get some more papers stating you've entered the hospitals and did well... good luck!

Yes and no... It never is a bad thing to improve your creds, actually it's awsome for you to do it, but not because you think you won't match, come on! That creds and # of IV's are quite and achievement and U should be proud of that... Relax for now, consider it as a challenge for your patience and determination.

ManuNastai is right, if you have some free time now, try to increase your experience with rotations and/or research, it will help you during your residency and help you when applying for a fellowship.

The only thing you can improve is your interview performance. Because you have already got invites, interivew now is also the most important thing to get a position (Match or Prematch)

  #17

I'd like to appologise to all the romanians (even if I'm one of them) for the 15th post on this thread. it was ofensive, pre..judictive (:eyebrowsmiling face, malicious, but it was the truth.

so, sorry for making such bad publicity to my nationality.

PS: it was meant to be a joke... obviously, not understood by a lot of people, that's why I got all those pms

Punjabis r so very different from other indians and hence people sometimes take punjab as country.
