SOAP without ranking - suzidilara

1)I got 2 interview this year but I didn't rank them. Am I eligible for SOAP still?

2)If we apply via SOAP, will we send our documents (ps, ref letter vs) to programs again?

[ArchivalUser]

I've already registered to NRMP

[ArchivalUser]

yes you are eligible for SOAP as long as your are also ECFMG certified.
(why didn't you rank those 2...... never mind, i'm being nosy, good luck)

I didn't rank because of familial reasons.

thank you

[ArchivalUser]

you are welcome
(sorry for not minding my biz.)

And no, you do not have to send documents to programs during SOAP.
The programs will download them again.

Thanks @mdsurg

One more question,

I applied just for psychiatry programs for match so I have only psychiatry PS or letters.
Is it possible for me to apply both psychiatry and neurology programs at SOAP?

[ArchivalUser]

you can apply to any program, obviously it helps your case to have specialty-related LORs, but not an absolute requirement because SOAP is compressed over a few days.
