i am just curious, what kind of information was given to you by this presentation that you did not already know? well, except the exact screenshot of the program that is being used (like it will make our application more competitive, or us more attractive)....what kind of doubts did it clear?
maybe i am missing something, please, help me understand

Hey kingsofke,
Good man. Good to see How the PD evaluate. Looking at this the PD or whoever, does'nt make a decision just like that inspite the numerous application they may recieve.I hope it is the case. We will wait and see the battle. Good luck to everbody

you are wellcome, i just found it out and like looking at it. it didnt mean much, hey babydoc4usmle, i warned you about the free time right. For me somethings which got cleared or better understood were like they do download the pic but cannot see the photo until they change the status to invited for the interview, and they do have options of using filters and they can even create own custom filters.

This is just a generic slide show of what is visible in ERAS and shows you how we see an application. No magic here.

Seeing the photo has changed this year. It's visible automatically. It doesn't mean a thing. When we had paper applications, we saw the photos all the time.
