WHat the survey doesnt brush upon is drug use ,treachery ,treason ,infidelity ,HIV/aids , hepatitis tirtres ,cat scratch (disease) ,,presence or absence of rabies .I saw the eras application for fellowhsip and in it one can actually fill in dog bite history and anti rabies titres

How the pds look upon great history of dog bites and no history of dog bites is only known to them ..What i gathered from a felloship director is that for cardiology fellowship a candidate should try to sustain as many dog bites as possible before applying ..and bites should be from wild rabid dogs ...at least for university programs its true ..the director even had proof to his testimony ..he had 9 bites each on his right hamstring ,lateral thigh and gluteal region .BItes are more important than published papers ..SO all the cards prospects start provoking dogs . .

Laptop - this information is for everyone but you. You, my friend will just have to show up, throw yourself on the mercy of the program director, pledge the souls of your next three children, and the life of the bat.

Then you are in - like Flynn.
