congrats eida and sarika!

hey guys lets all hang in there... this process is a rollercoaster... many highs and lows... we just gotta hang on and master each bump along the way... in the end, no matter the outcome, we will be wiser for it...

hi all...
One quick doubt, to access the situation!
How many IMG who need visa match every year?? This will give me a rough idea of my chances. With most programs receiving around 3500 applications, I'm worried how many positions are available in whole USA?
Also got one more rejection from Good Samaritan Hospital of Maryland.

Rejection Good Sam Maryland

"This has been the most competitive year that I
have experienced in my 20 years of reviewing applications. We have received
over 3500 applications for a total of 16 positions.

I know its funny but at least they were very nice the way the language of the whole email is...

I just got an invite from Jacobi/albert Einstein... the only date they gave me conflicts with my Rariton NJ interview... dont think i could change my raritan interview - however will try...
if it comes down to choosing what do you guys think?
i know the ultimate choice is mine but i just want some feedback about how these two programs stand up against one another.
