Hey guys,
Just wanted to share a HOT TIP for anyone who is applying for Surgery this year....
Program: Research Medical Center/Menorah Medical Center Program
ERAS ID: 4401900388
411:
- This is a brand spanking new surgery program
- Was just approved be ACGME today, 1/25/18
- I was told they doubt they will get any applicants for their surgery program since they JUST started accepting applications today and are so late in the game
- My source said verbatim "I will interview who ever applies" (I do not know how true this is)
- All interviews will be conducted Feb 9 & 10
- She said they doubt they will get enough applicants to interview to fill their quota on match day, but they will still go thru the match so they can pick up surgery applicants from SOAP who didn't match.
- They can do J1 visas
- Bottom line: IF you apply and actually get an interview, there is a high likelihood that you will match into surgery.
GOOD LUCK!!!
