another funny one,
forum friends,
i applied to 48 programs in IM, and got 36 interviews so far. Did not hear anything from rest 12 programs.
I know you guys do not believe me, I score 99/291 in step 1 and 99/289 in step 2. I just passed step 3 with 97.
I am 2006 grad.
Do you think i will get rest 12 interviews ?
good luck to you all.
some1's response
It's not too late dude
apply more right now
we need at least 100 interview calls to match in this crazy year
I love the response

A guy, ID in USMLEforum.com is genesismd
He instructs people how to prepare for step step 3
But he did not know CS is a must for step 3 (ECFMG certificate is a must for step 3)
He insulted people about bad English and said that people would fail step 2 CS if they were going to sit for it although they have passed or taken step 3.

He is a Premier Course agent.
He always blames Dr Conrad Fisher for anything Dr Fisher does, then recommends using premier course.
You will see that he did not participate in any USMLE question discussion because he does not know, he just gives advise, blame, fun..

Another funny question
I have already passed step 1 and step 2 cs. I am scheduled to take step 2 ck in early December.
But right now, I want to apply to some residency programs, and in my profile when I am applying online, it asked "DO YOU HAVE A ECFMG CERTIFICATE?"
Should I answer YES? Or NO?
Thanks!

How many interviews so far?
Just wondering b/c average seems to be less this year than what I heard last year.
I have 15 scheduled , how abt you guys?
* Re:how many Interviews you have?
#990867
I have 30 so far. Yes, it seems this year we are not getting as many interviews. Hopefully in the coming months we will get some luck.
#990868
I am one short of luckydonkey's score.Really depressed why this year the average is so less that I cannot even catch up with a luckyD.
#990871
I too have 30 till now.
Last year, with only step 1 score with me I had 40 ivs by this time.
#990872
Those who have less than 20 till now will not get matched this time.
better, dont waste yr money and go back.
#990876
good advice diamond although ERAS will not refund them still they will save lot of money and their cancelled interveiws may raise the average and allow some more to cross the magic figure of 20 intvs.
#990891
yes, u r very right.
they wont waste money on travelling and lodging.
and otherwise also, there will be no tension, so no high BP, and no stress so decreasing the chance of MI.
So actually, if they see, they r bound to save alot of money now and even when they get old.
#990900
I have scheduled 23.I am so worried.God help me get matched this year.
#990924
why worry fingil you have crossed the thresh hold figure (20) relax man.
#990926
none so far...................ha ha ha
#990929
you will surely match after getting interveiws as you can keep your cool very essential for a Doc.

A friend of mine got 21 and he cancell after he was in his 9 interview and got a prematch, and till today that is the highest I have heard of anyone getting interviews.
Most of the people that I know have had 5-9 interviews.
So 40 interviews he must be the son of George Lucas or a Kenedy

This is total crap, if last year xyz had 40 and this year he has applied again means he didnt match with 40. Y m i even wasting time analyzing this.
