Saska2 Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 Am I the only one who only got one interview for family medicine and it’s from my home school? I’m CMG, I don’t think I have any red flags or issues with my application, but.. wtf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toki Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 Are you applying to FM as a backup? My friend got a couple rejections. We attributed it to the fact that he has a lot of electives in another specialty and FM programs probably realized he's backing up with them.

Saska2 Posted December 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 No, it’s not a backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2019CaRMS Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 Happened to me last year. Any outstanding investigations or delays that haven't been officially resolved can flag you badly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2019CaRMS Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 Just now, Bookmark311 said: What do u mean by outstanding investigations I had a outstanding professionalism complaint that needed to be investigated. Unfortunately it took months and resulted in a few weeks off clinical duty before they realized the complaint was made with "malicious intent". Gotta be vague here as I could doxx myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winginit Posted December 18, 2018 Report Share Posted December 18, 2018 A lot of programs haven’t finished sending out invites yet for FM so there’s still time. Definitely stressful though! toki 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omgoi Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Any FM programs in particular that are known to favour their own for interviews and not consider you if haven't done an on-site elective? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least last cycle it seemed that the southern Ontario schools, Manitoba, and Sask focused on their own and people who did electives there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
