Think you meant Pitt instead of Penn. Fixed.

Pitt - Phone call from Dr. Fu

Southern Illinois - phone call from PD

University of Kentucky - Phone call (late january) - "we are interested in you"

USF (U. of South Florida) phone call from PD

nothing was said about how many calls were made. I know of atleast three, there are likely more.

not sure, the email did not specify. This is all it said:

Our rank list has been sub-divided into three groups, highly competitive, competitive and less competitive candidates. Most of our matched residents will come from the highly competitive group (this is the group that has the greatest chance of matching at Washington University Orthopaedic Surgery). Some will come from the competitive group. It is anticipated that few candidates in the less competitive group will successfully match at Washington University.

I'm curious too about hss. I assume no news is bad news- my "unranked" letter is probably in the mail as I type- but has anyone heard?
