I feel so empty. Got my only IV on a Tuesday afternoon and had my interview the following Thursday. So, I feel as if I did not received any IV so far because it all happened so fast. Anyone with same feeling?

Hang in there...It only takes one interview to match. It's still very early and there is still a good chance for more.

@Docgm... How do you think your interview went in your opinion. Not asking you to divulge any specifics ... Just wanted to know your over all feeling about your performance and level of comfort during the iv.

@tmpsmx, I felt great after the interview and my chances as I knew I did my best. But, last year I had the same feelings and it didn't work out. So, until I see the words "M.A.T.C.H.E.D", I won't give into that too much. The PD of a program where I thought I did great last year told me that I was rank 15th out of 30 in their choices, but all first 4 people accepted the match there. So,I am holding my breath and praying.

@docgm thx for letting us be a part of your experience. Appreciate it. Good luck, I hope they rank you high.

I guess then someone with no interviews would feel even more empty, no?

@cluey, exactly what I was thinking! If I had one interview I would be jumping for joy and never feel a tad bit empty

Well, no reason to be bitter here. Even with 5 or 10 IVs, some will still feel empty. The point is until you read the words "match", whether you have 0, 1, or 100 IVs, there is still that feeling. Anyhow, GL to you 2 and hopefully you will have IVs soon if not yet.

Not being bitter at all! Lol... I think feeling empty is the wrong term? Maybe if ur feeling worried about how U did or the outcome of the match, that's a better way to put it... I totally get that feeling will be there until March, no matter how many interviews U have!
