Housewannabe Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Good lord I haven't had a good night's sleep since this round began. Did they tell you when they're planning on making a final decision? How r they going to rank students without interviewing them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrouchoMarx Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I wonder if the ortho and radiology programs are going to lapse their second round spots in light of the employment situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they tell you when they're planning on making a final decision? How r they going to rank students without interviewing them? No. I don't think the program was prepared to go to 2nd round. I guess they'll just rank based on a point system with the presentation letter, references letters, CV and grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, that would explain their last minute decision. Oh well I guess we pray and hope for the best. Thanx for the update, at least in this case no news is good news.

What I'm saying is call the program if you want the real answers. Every program is different on their way of handling this 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2014MD Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Some of the programs are skipping interviews in 2nd round it seems. Just got an email from Memorial Gen Surg that I am in the shortlist but there will be no interviews in this cycle. So the ranking will be just based on the application. So if you haven't gotten an actual rejection from some of these programs you might still be in the running, don't lose hope just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just can't overtly say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigars53 Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Has anyone heard anything from dal ortho? Called them yesterday. They already sent their interview invites. If you didn't get anything yet, that means they will not take you. Sorry buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexafellow Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Just have a simple question: how am I supposed to rank the programs that have given me no interview, but no rejection either...Any advice? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A-Stark Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Sorry to say it, but you can rank them however you wish - the prospect of matching to any program at which you haven't interviewed is very poor. Best of luck all the same. It's a barbaric process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck all the same. It's a barbaric process. Thanks for your response! What about those programs that decided to rank based on the applications only without interviewing applicants? From your experience, has anybody matched to such programs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigars53 Posted March 27, 2014 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 Just have a simple question: how am I supposed to rank the programs that have given me no interview, but no rejection either...Any advice? :confused: Rank them anyway, it can't hurt. Just in case they do the ranking without doing any interviews. But rank the ones you've interviewed first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
