akachan ... there will be four ivs .. there will be a small form u have to fill with some general questions.. like why psych etc
some ppl ask psych questions .. but mostly its why psych and your cv
lunch with chief res. very casual
akachan .. i know they have given out prematches, but dont know if all positions r filled
everyone i know denied it ... program is on probation ... i did not like the program at all
I just checked Freida and Westchester has not given out prematches in the last atleast 3 years. So I can only hope that Examusmle got one from some place else. I hate to be this way but the cutthroat competition has really gotten me.
Has anybody gotten prematch offer from Maimonides ?
P.S- sorry Examusmle, I did not mean to offend you or anything by saying that I hope you did not get a prematch from Westchester. It's just that I loved the program myself. The match has made me so selfish !!
@examusmle
Congrats on your prematch. I agree with you regarding keeping the program anonymous. It is not done to hide anything from people from the forum. It is just more of a self-preservation. Until the contract is signed, nothing is set in stone. I doubt programs are reading the forum religiously, but there are reasons to be cautious. Programs may not want the people they offered prematches to be announcing it all over the internet. Just imagine the flood of phone calls, the PC will get!
So, I hope other people from this forum can understand this.
Congrats again, examusmle!
congrats @ examusmle .. GL
@ Morris81,
Could you pls check your email and reply at your convenience. Thanks so much.
@ belle and examusmle,
I understand what you guys are saying, I was just a little desperate to find out. Well, in the end everything worked out okay, no hard feelings I hope.
@ abc1234567
Thank you so much , all the best to your residency.
By the way, is there anyway to know whether any program of interest has had already offered prematch or not FROM the NRMP website?
aka
can anyone tell about how many prematch offered from Albert Einstein Med Center at Philli?
they have 10 position, and NRMP shows quota = 4, does it mean that they already offered 6 prematch?? I am getting suicidal...
i had been on a vacation and I am back!! I have prematched as well and I plan on giving back a bit to this forum and in the days to come, I shall be offering solid advice to people seeking a psychiatry residency..so stay tuned..
@examusmle
congrats on your prematch! very clever to not reveal the name of the program, thereby protecting your identity! it should be next to impossible to guess you, given you are a 1996 grad, with a double 99, a uk psych residency+fellowship along with a prematch offer...way too little information for any meaningful conclusions to be drawn regarding your identity!!!!
