Pathmatch, thanks for the reminder. But I do like path and I have lots of experience in path too. I can handle some slides for diagnosis now and I don't want to give up research. I don't need to worry about job offer after residency.As a citizen, I should have the same job offter as other AMGs after training.

that's my reason to stick to path.

I didn't hear from Cornell yet, not sure if it's because I applied too late, or because my application is still not complete.

Thank you for your interest in our Anatomic and Clinical Pathology Residency Program here at the University of Florida College of Medicine - Jacksonville . However, at this time we will not be considering your application for interview due to you not meeting our graduation year cut off, which is five years.

I got 2 rejections today, what a bad day. It looks like some Path programs don't like PhD, Since applicants holding PhD is more likely graduation >5 years.
It is bad that they don't tell you in details about these criteria in their website.
