If you go to your profile in the NRMP you can change your AAMC ID.
You know what would be great I know It’s rare in psych in general and even rarer in child but has anyone heard about programs to avoid? Ones with malignant or worrisome reputations.
Yeah thanks to virtual interviews I am almost done with interview season as well and really considering cancelling almost all of the last few interviews. All of the remaining programs but 2 will be below my home program which was offering me a spot outside of the match if I wanted it so what's the point of going on them?
Honestly you just have to laugh at that. They seem salty I suppose 😂
I’ll be honest I am super jealous of my IM friends who match December 1st.So uh... rank lists open tomorrow at noon.
Yall done interviewing yet? Jeez. Hurry the F up!
Especially when there is no robust SOAP or anything for them prepare for which is their excuse with general residency.
We should revisit this idea. My number 1 is very clear but like 2-7 is really jumbled up. I loved all my interviews no program really gave me bad vibes and they all seem to have everything I am looking for. Virtual has made it much harder to really get that gut feeling about places. Maybe a separate thread where we could ask about program A vs B or so forth would be helpful.
Yea I feel the same. There is like one program I interviewed at that I was like OH HELL NOPE like they were WAAAY too call heavy and didn't seem to do a great job supporting residents. I'm not even ranking them. like I would rather just not match and stay in adult than go there for child. otherwise I'm like....?? every other place seemed good.
Yeah exactly and I get what RTC is saying but for me some of these programs both where they are located, even research and clinics available are all about the same. For me I am relocating unless something terribly goes wrong and all the programs I have ranked in my top 8 are close various families and friends. Well anyway I am interested in a separate thread where maybe some of the more experienced/attendings out there might have specific insights into programs or even what we may have heard ourselves.
I think I know what CAP program is this! I canceled my interview w them after the dinner w the fellows heheh
Was this in NY?
I didn't actually end up applying in NY: while I've heard great things about the NY programs, I think for me NYC living would be too much (cost, lifestyle)
I agree with a new thread!
I think it's program specific if they do or don't respond. I am pretty sure some programs have a strict no communication trying to abide by the rules type of thing so I wouldn't sweat it too much.
It's not expected or even needed but my PD told me that the only thing that may help a little with your rankings at some programs is if you tell your number one that they are you number 1 and why. For some programs it may change nothing for others it matters that you really want to be there just depends. And be clear to your number they are in fact that no vague top of my list type of thing.
Maybe that's it but like... A simple form letter that even states that they've received the message would have been nice!
Yikes. What was this program’s call schedule? And what made the fellows seem unsupported?
Mind sharing the name? Probably can't hurt you if you are not even going to rank them lol. Might help other applicants out!
I’ve been certifying and editing and then certifying again lol too paranoid I might forget if I don't.
Any updates on this? Last year a few programs hid their toxic aspects well on the zoom interview trail so I definitely encourage y’all to name and shame (and am grateful to the fellows who helped me dodge a couple bullets last cycle with their openness🙏)
