I am a U of C student. Although U of C has a nice community, I'd NOT recommend going to U of C medical school! U of A is a much better alternative.

You will get one very soon- it's probably just taking time to send to everyone on list. I got an invite with 1 week of FM electives. If you are FM oriented person you have very high chances of getting an interview. Good luck!

I did this morning!

I have similar feeling and I always feel inadequate - I am going through CaRMS right now and I genuinely hope I match after all effort I put in. I always feel that I try my best, yet sometimes I am not able to perform up to my expectations. Medicine is very humbling. I can't be outstanding in every area, despite really wanting to be outstanding in all areas. I hope people understand that you cant be good at everything in medicine.

When is lsat day for interview invites to be sent out?? is it March 3 rd?

Hi everyone, I am in my last year of med school and I applied to one of the ROAD specialties and FM in CaRMS. Over medical school, I have worked so hard to have a solid CV to be competitive for that specialty. Now, at the end of med school, I am currently feeling so drained.. and the thought of finishing a FM to be done in 2 years is quite appealing. I would love to become a specialist and I really love subject matter of speciality that I am applying to, but sometimes I feel that I wont be successful in it or that even if i get in I am not sure if I can finish it successfully and I have

Ok, that's frustrating! I have not submitted any application yet.

It keep saying loading

What are red flags in applications.. what exactly is that? how do i know if i have a red flag or not?

Bad PS = list your CV, does not answer question, lack insight into speciality you are applying to, grammar errors, arrogance, difficult to read.... I can keep going lol

Lolll... I read few so far, and i have not seen that one yet!!

That's what I thought as well!

I think it may be valued more for FM/IM but from my understanding not as much for competitive specialties. In these specialities, your performance is valued much more!

I was talking to a resident in a competitive speciality and I was told that PS are just for red flags, and that the LoR is what makes you or break you. Is that true?
