I check (refresh) my ERAS every 3-5 minutes,

This match makes me crazy.

Anyone here who experiences same problem?

Me ....this has been going on for the past 27 days!

You better find something else to do. That will not help but hurt your options...our mind must be free from ERAS/IVs stuff so then it can take better decisions later.


I am going to the gym...I had the same problem that you gays some weeks ago

I understand you Priya and all of you guys!! Last night I had a dream about getting a great IV jajaja and then when I woke up and noticed that it was all just a dream felt disappointed... Is checking 3 times a day classified as OCD? I don't think so but I guess having to study for step 3 has kept my mind a little (just a little) busy and away from obsessing about this too much, but I totally understand you guys if I hadn't been studying I would check my mail every hour. Feels good to know that there is other people experiencing the exact same feeling...nod

I'm wondering why you check your ERAS. Aren't we supposed to get rejections and interviews by email??

Hey -Let alone ERAS/my email- I have become an obessive compulsive forum addict- I am reading threads that are 4-5 years old and already feel like I been through the whole thing even before my 1st interview- or maybe I am missing my medications ;-)
