Ouch!!! Looks like UCI was practing the rejections but I just got the real thing from UCSD. I have gotten some pretty good programs, but my number one is out. Is begging allowed?

Cric4U said:Hey all,
Davis and Irvine today via email...still no word from UCSD, Stanford or OHSU...or what am I saying... many other programs for that matter.....ARRRRGGGHHHHH
patience young grasshopper...I have got to stop checking my email, numbness, tingling in my pinky and ring finger...that's strange. Maybe I'll wait 3-4 months and then go to the ED at 3AM.

Oh well! Can't win 'em all...unless you're EMapplicant or Noreinger, that is congrats guys-seriously, it must be tough picking through the pile of great programs.
FREIDA will tell you how many students they normally interview, but only if the program has filled out the survey you can find it at:joaquin13 said:Just curious--does anyone know a site where we can check how many applications each program normally receives and how many people they usually invite to interview?
Thanks!

WakeMedHeel... I'll swap GW for Bellevue. Too bad there's no fantasy Match!
WakeMedHeel said:I don't know if I'd trade Bellevue for GW but I really want a GW spot!!!
Think I'm dropping Long Island Jewish and VCU. Don't know for sure yet.
waterski232002 said:This is great... me, you and AMBinNC have nothing better to do besides post on student doctor network... This is why I love EM!
AMBinNC said:anesthesia here... "you can take off if you want to" --> gone!
gwu is reviewing alphabetically and the person w/ my part of the alphabet is out of town - no offers from hers yet.
i'm about to have to do some cancellations myself... dang it's tough to do this sight unseen.

To how many do you think I should cut back -- and which (still waiting on NC programs, SLR, UMass and a few others...)? Suggestions? Gotta start doing this tommorow... off to spend money on my flight to Oregon... (time for an emergency loan..)..
wakemed -
have you re-met w/ the chairman of our dept? there are 1 or 2 in there i bet he'd discourage unless you have a compelling reason to go there.

And I actually did my first interview yesterday (Orlando) - so do we start a new thread for that? Went pretty well, I think. It's hard to compare programs when you've only done one.
