dont wanna depress any of u guys but it seems that most of the programs are done sending invites .. its proving to be a tough year! alot of the 'smaller' programs that i was expecting calls from have been overwhlemed with applications ... i think that neuro coming over to ERAS has made alot of ppl apply .. look at toledo for example .. 420 apps for 4 positions!!! thats 105 applicants for 1 position !!

  #427

So anybody's been to a Neuro IV yet or not? Any experiences would be helpful guys. Please keep us lesser mortals informed of your IVs as and when they happen....so that in case the god do smile upon us we might be at least ready in some measure....

Doc when are you goin for your IV at CCF?

I am still waiting for one.....disapproval

ur friend matched last year? from what i've heard from programs is that there are way more applicants this year than ever before .. atleast in neurology .. the reason for that could be that neurology used to go thru the SFmatch and only those who were really into neuro applied so the spots vs applicant ratio wasnt that bad also this year theres alot of influx of ppl from the UK ... they changed some of their employment laws and alot of ppl are coming here now ... if things go on as they are, it'll probably get worse in the coming years and scores will matter more and more (they already do!) i think my best chance is to get matched this year cuz the interviews i have are through contacts that might not be there next year .... crap, im sick of this shit !

Keppra,

are you talking someone who has average cred to get 10 IVs in this year? I know you have excellent cred? How many Ins have you got? It is a depressing year. It sounds like Neuro will be one of top specialties in the future. No kidding
