Confused about post-match

[lazyindy]

I have applied to residencies throughout the new york city area (bk, bronx, queens) but have only gotten one interview (woodhull). If I dont get any additional interviews, people told me post match usually works out for students. How does post match work exactly?

thanks.

Hi, I have a couple of questions about the post match:
1-How does a candidate apply to the a program after match? Calling to the program or sending an e- mail? How does it work?
2- Can a candidate apply to a program having an open position, which he/she was denied before?
Thank you so much

Following the Match, there may be programs that have unfilled spots and applicants who did not successfully match.

Around 12:00PM of Match Day, a list of programs that have unfilled spots are sent to applicants who did not successfully match. It is up to those candidates to complete a scramble in which those applicants call up the places on that list in order to secure a spot on the phone or secure an interview that may lead to a residency spot. Only programs on that list have positions available to offer.

My advice is to read the tea-leaves prior to Match Day. If you aren't interviewing at a lot of places, chances are you aren't going to be matching. It's purely a numbers game and you have to err on the side of caution (i.e. you didn't wow the program enough to be ranked high enough on their list). So if this is you, my advice would be have packets ready to send/fax on the day of Match when you are calling around. (e.g. statement of purpose/personal statement, letters of recommendation, CV, etc).

I don’t imagine there is any harm in doing so.

I took an applicant I didn’t rank last year. Had two open spots. She was a good candidate, just didn’t fit into my initial plan. After match she contacted me and I took her. Also took a guy who was top 10 but not matched by the one program he was promised and ranked. Amazing hands and skills. Post match can work.
