Former APD at a big program told me "Text books are ok, but use more for reference. Read the ATS reading list" and then she also gave me a big list of topics to review and understand.

I met quite a few attendings who took this route. Noted that the CCM years really helped. A few 3 year PCCM programs will actually give you a year of credit and allow you to graduate after 2 years. Not sure which ones have that as a "interview and match" offer but several will have that if they...

As @rockstar88 said - There are people on this very thread who would kill to have your current spot. You shouldn't have ranked if you didn't want to go. In theory you could try doing residencyswap.com but that in of itself is a huge risk. Be thankful and become a great doctor

Either happy or sad crying

Lead time, I am not sure but the sooner the better since they could give that spot to a waitlist/other potential applicant. As for timing of interviews, it shouldn't matter since a lot of programs try to standardize how they select applicants. That said the advice I've been given is "Pick the...

To those accepted, Congratulations! To those on the waitlist, don't forget to send updates (Positive Updates) and later on (Like Spring) a letter of interest/intent. Also, don't give up hope, I got off the waitlist in June. As a side note, be sure to be kind to yourselves. Its that time of...

Hey just to comment on the large class size. Yes the first days, you won't know many of your classmates outside the group you form. But they do break us up into smaller groups for workshops and labs. For the ICM workshops, you work with a different group each time and get to know quite a few...

Be careful. I'm going based on hear say. Plus it changes year to year based on the competitiveness of candidates. Agreed. You don't know who is reading.

As far as post acceptance rate, I don't have a number but the stat thrown around is 75%. I do know that a lot of the people who interviewed earlier were accepted and I didn't interview until March and got off the waitlist in July Actually, most of my group was accepted. Though I will say they...
