What a total catastrophe. My program filled, so I was only following this peripherally.
Both ERAS and NRMP are going to be in the hot seat, by both programs and applicants.
Next year's SOAP won't really fix anything. Yes, getting your call in first won't be critical because decisions won't happen for the first 48 hours. But you can bet that everyone will still want to be first, hence the onslaught immediately upon the list release.
It will be interesting to see if there really was a DOS attack on the NRMP server today, rather than simply thousands of scrambling applicants endlessly refreshing their screens.
