Well. Long time observer, first time poster.

My name is "Mud", and I am an.............


Anyway, here goes.

Applied to 42 programs.

Invites 10
Interviews 8 (Couldn't schedule TWO due to scheduling conflicts!) This is frustrating to me, as I realistically have no idea which of the programs would be a better "fit" for me, so within reason, it is first-come first served. Anyone else running into this problem this "early" in the game?

Also, another gripe, anyone else curious about how late the Ortho programs seem to be relative to other specialties?

Still haven't gotten an invite from the HOME SCHOOL. WOW! (Yes, they have sent out invites!!)

Applied to 30, interviews at 6, rejected from 6 so far.

As for late interviews, I did a search for "interview invitations" and looked at the threads from last year. You can get an idea about which programs invite later from that. Granted anything can change, but if a program offered interviews last year in December, I would bet they would do the same this year. Check it out for some piece of mind.

Good luck to everyone.

just wanna to remind to let programs know if u can't make it (scheduling conflicts, loss interest, too many interviews,etc).

sadly giving up thomas jefferson and allegheny b/c of scheduling conflicts. i've heard both are great programs.

good luck to next guy who might get the spots
