I'm curious how the MOTP surge works. Are applicants interested in the MOTP program only able to apply to the listed sites or are additional spots created through subsidization? I noticed McGill wasn't listed as an MOTP site despite the CAF listing it as a participating school.

I'm curious as well. How do they get the students spots? I assume they are providing the funding but how do schools find training capacity? Does the school get pressured to just accept these students?

Thanks - interesting.

Interesting. How many spots in total are they offering this year?

Out of curiosity, what happens to spots that are unfilled after the second iteration of the match?

CARMS is over and people/programs can directly contact each other. How or even if a program would approach that is very variable. In fact it is a mess - which is one of the major reasons systems like CARMS were created in the first place ha.

It’s a mess that’s for sure, but people do try and secure those positions. I’m not sure how exactly it plays out everywhere. I know of one person who matched after 1st and 2nd iteration rejections and is doing well now.

Maybe a dumb question, but are IMG positions fair game for CMGs after the second iteration? Or are all the streams still in place?
