Hi. Maybe you should pin a thread strictly for IV experiences. It would be an extremely valuable resource if people contribute.

What do you guys think?

I think its a very good idea to start this thread so people who have given interviews can share thier experience like mph did in his post.

But surely I think people will ask Q, congratulate and add their thoughts on this thread as on any other thread.

Thanx and would look forward to this thread to start.

Yea, I agree it wld be a bit disorganized but i believe there needs to be a way to get experiences like mph's and the many others that I'm sure will follow in a central place. I still thinks its better than nothing.

An alternative to an actual IV thread could be a thread that merely contains the links to the various IV experience posts. The links could then be orgainized by place and time.

I'm just thinkin. Maybe someone has a better idea?

There can be an Interview thread
an members can extend on their experience and talk about it on a different one.

For example it could be posted:

Program Name:
Date of Interview:
How many interviewers:
How many applicants:
Tour included visits to:
Questions asked:
happy residents: yes / no / ?
research oriented: yes / no / ?
more ideas?

Hi new n lost!

can you open a new "sub forum" for Interview experiences in IM? It would be good by State to have programs in clusters.
I will start this monday with Connecticut.

Thanks.
