@vaccine, phenomenal scores. Your hard work will pay off! Its up to you but I would start contacting a few programs. Of course its up to you. I wish you the best!

vaccine call the programs prob they didnt see your application because of the YOG but you have great credentials, you deserve IV!!
0 - ArchivalUser - 10-23-2014
I applied to 100 programs because my YOG so ignored ones with low YOG filters
All my USCE was hands on in hospitals with LOR from US doctors. They were not PDs though.
I sent a few emails to programs but they didnt answer. Is it that easy to call PDs? I wouldnt think they answer calls as too busy!
thanks for your words and support guys

@vaccine, you should apply to more programs. Some programs send iv to old graduates even tho they mention YOG cut-off on their website. My YOG is 10 years, but I applied regardless YOG cut/off, and got some iv from those programs.

Also, it's almost impossible to call PD. Just send sincere email. You will get answer including rejections from 1 out of 10 email.

To applicants who received IVs from Bronx-Lebanon; how long does it take the program to confirm an applicant's preferred IV dates? Thanks.

thanks elly I applied to a few like that ignoring the cut off like bronx leb etc and heard nothing! i will try emailing PDs and see what happens.
I never knew YOG could be so hurtful despite me being clinically active always
