This guy is like everyone else trying to stick their hands in the pockets of IMGs.
His story:
He was all over this forum, prep-4-usmle and SDN during the last match.
He made many claims about:
...the amount of USCE he had
...the large number of interviews that he received
...how much money he had and therefore could afford to attend 42???? interviews all over the country.
This guy mention dozens of times that he was from a wealthy family and could afford to take 5 months to attend these interviews, including the air fare and hotel rooms, yet soon after the match he started to advertise for folks to pay him $15-20 for his list and has added $15-20 for telling you what to wear at an interview.
It was all hogwash! All propaganda.
It was all part of a well scripted fantasy to form the basis for starting his Blogspot to earn money.
Is there anyone here stupid enough to believe that a person with as much USCE as he claimed to have and with that many interviews would match at number 21 on his rank list??????
He didn't match anywhere, because he was writing his script for the next rip-off of IMGs.
I matched at Jefferson, IN PSYCH!!!!!
I had USCE, but not in psychiatry and I matched and he supposedly match at #21 in KC?? What a joke!
All the info that he claims he got from interviews is on SDN.
The AMGs review just about every program.
It's there to learn from, but this pig decides to turn it into the latest money-making scheme.
Psychguru, you are the scum of the earth.

for someone who has benefitted from the forum , to sell info to desperate peole and info whose value is highly suspect is indeed a terrible thing to do...but there will always be suckers and we cant stop them...
i always believe that if u are smart to become a doctor then u should be smart enough to research information....
google helps so does old fashioned practice of calling someone! |

congrats on matching at jefferson. it is a great program. i interviewed there.
anyhow i dont believe i am scum. my blog is free to all to check out. yes i do make some google adsense money but what is ur problem. i believe my img friendly list is better than those imgs pay hundgreds to. u live in a capitalist world and i doubt u r donating you salary at jeff to the amazon forest.
in order to help others i have to be honest. i have to mention that i went to 44 interviews yet also have to mention that many cant afford that many. however i know imgs who r less competitve than i who only apply to 30-40 programs and dont match. i dont expect everyone to apply to as many programs as me but i feel it would be in their self interest to apply to more than they did. it is cheaper to go thru the match once properly and get matched then redo the process half-assed. plus u would be working earlier.
btw i did match into a good university program in a decent city. i should have ranked my program higher and was lucky to get in where i got especially since many did not match this year.
btw what are your stats? u must have a good score to get into jeff. not every1 had your scores. |

btw i am not charging 15$ for telling people what to wear. my list is free. i may in the future charge for phone consults if people want them. i have advised many of my friends and i feel i do have some experience after interviewing at 49 places. do u think i should do phone consults for free? however otherwise my blog is free.
btw what is your problem. if u have advice to help others then help them out. if u see any factual errors in my blog point them out. u r lucky to get into jeff with a thin cv. i bet you have above 90 scores or something else that stands out on ur application. also the match is random. yet i believe usce helps. u may gotten into u penn with it. jeff is good but i wont say it is top tier. |

The guy (aka sga430) applied to more than a 140 programs for crying out loud, being a US Citizen with USCE and average scores, I am not surprised he landed up with 40+ interviews. So I dont think he's faking it.
Having said that I do have an issue with his sense of entitlement and with his belief that he deserves better than a residency with the "IMG Sweatshops" or living in "One-horse towns" (I am quoting him verbatim here). Of course he had no issue with interviewing at those places bcoz he evidently didn't land interviews at the so-called AMG Friendly programs.
While I can understand ambitiousness but thinking that he is some ways better than an IMG causes me some pain. For all his bravado he was not able to secure a position in a US Medical School and had to pretty much buy his way into Medical School.
And using the open forum for the sake of making money is just a despicable act of avarice. |

psychguru
I do not attempt to make myself more than I am.
I have opinions nothing more, you on the other hand try to portray yourself as an expert.
A few days ago there was an individual that had questions about "an interview", you replied that you would coach the person for a fee!!! That's disgusting.
My objection is when you start asking people for money. In my opinion it degrades you to the level of a prostitute.
You are now using this forum to generate visits (hits) to your site, the objective being that the more hits you generate, the more you will earn from sponsorship ads.
It's no accident that you suddenly reappear here, furthermore I seriously suspect that most of the posts addressed TO you ARE written BY you to afford you a chance to further publicize your blog.
In essence, your phoney posts are another avenue to line your pocket by using IMGs.
