unfilled spots

Hey bud, long time no talk... congrats on matching. Good thing you didn't have to scramble... you're too damn slow to have worked it out. Also, I haven't forgotten that I owe you a brew.

LOL, I gotta type faster, I got up to put my shoes on to go to the gym and look what happens....

My guess is that's MU's 6 year position....actually, if it says 0/1, then it has to be b/c they only offer one 6 year spot and 2 or 3 5 years (can't remember which). I'm sure somebody has scrambled into that spot by now.......it's a cool town to live in, and I think that program will be pretty solid in the next several years.......

The quota of 1 position for Missouri's open spot suggests that the unfilled spot is the 6yr research track, not the traditional 5yr track for anyone interested.

University of Missouri-Columbia was the program that didn't fill - 0/1
Puerto Rico was 0/4

Hmm... just left our medical affairs office and flipped through the list of unmatched programs. I can't believe I've already forgotten where the one US program was (I'm thinking somewhere in Michigan???), definitely not Wisconsin again. However, there were 4 unfilled spots in Puerto Rico, so if you like pina coladas... I'm being totally serious - there was one US program and 4 spots at 1 program in PR.

only folks that did not match have access to the list of unfilled programs at this point. i'm sure they are a little busy scrambling right now. this info will come to light in the very near future when those stats are released to the general public.

where was the one unmatched spot? anyone know?

I always thought there were about 850 positions.
