Question:

I didnt match this year and was wondering if people knew which programs out there refuse to give reapplicants interviews, regardless of their application? I heard alot of programs screen out reapplicants. My scores and grades were all excellent(>250 step 1 and 2, AOA), and I'm planning on applying to like 80 programs anyways. I just dont want to waste my time at places that wont even give me a chance. I have a new perspective on all the matching stuff, I dont have high hopes for "top" programs, I just want to end up ANYWHERE.

I remember running into reapplicants on the interview trail at Wright State (Dayton, OH) and Indiana University.

Doesn't really answer your question, but any little bit helps, right?

Best of Luck

Replied by on topic I was a reapplicant last
I was a reapplicant last year, here are the places that I hear will offer interviews:
Albany Medical Center
Alleghany Hospital in Pittsburgh
Wright State
UMKC - the program director actually prefers those who have done prelim years
St. Joe's in New Jersey
Marshall
Detroit Medical Center
Monmouth
Grand Rapids

And I know for a fact that UT Southwestern in Dallas does not offer interviews to re-applicants.

Hope that helps

p.s. this is in no way a complete list. With the numbers you have, I would apply everywhere. There is no way to predict the game that is the Match.
