Hello Everyone,
I understand, all of us here know that where shall end up (if we do) finally depends upon where the program ranks us, and where the other applicants who are ranked higher than us, rank that program. its way more complex that it superficially appears. Though it is said that the Match Process works in favor of the applicant, in a way it does, but eventually, program has the final say.
We still have a few days to submit the ROL. Anyone willing to share some information on programs, and the criteria on which they are ranking the program. I dont think so, sharing this would hurt any of us, rather it might help us better figure out what should be our # 3, 4, 5....the most difficult positions to decide.
If anyone is willing to talk more about this, we can wither do it here, iam fine with it. or we can do on our emails.
Good luck to everyone for the Big day!!!
Peace

Hey doc

Nothing u can do at this time

Rank according to ur wish

If program likes u

u will be matched accordingly

  #3

Exactly what do you want to share?


  #4

rank them like how u like them not how u think they like u. u will get the best possible for u on your list. ranking someone who u think liked u doesnt increase your chances of matching there but it does mean that u wont match at other better programs u ranked below this one even if there was a position. read this

Motorola is correct - pretend that it's your birthday present list and put the program you want most first, then continue through the list.

When programs make their lists, they will be doing the same thing.

I hit the certify button on my lists this morning.
