usmle9989,

dont be depressed and try your best.. psych is much better than other resdiencies in terms of IMG matching rate so u have a good chance. 5 ivs are very good

I think you still are in good condition than me usmle.

I interviewed at 6 places till now. All prematch programs like Richmond..... I had no prematch offer. ( dose not go in match )
Bergen... no 2nd IV to me ): another chance gone... out of my list.
Bronx Lebonan... No Prematch... out from my list of match as don't go in match.
Seton Hall some seats go in match but mostly for Carebeans.
Creedmore already gave 1 in prematch.
UDNMJ... Will mostly take it's own medical student. Will go in match.

So out of 6, only I can put 2 in match list. This is horrible. I feel so bad right now. Therefore I believe you surely are in good shape than me. I have high chance to get unmatch ( God forbid ). You have programs like Suny Brookly tking 8 in match. Nassau 6 in match and others.

hey rd768876 and jph, they gave us an exam, 50 multiple choice questions if i remember it right, pretty easy, kinda like step2 ck and step3 questions. make sure you do well in that because im thinking it plays a big part in getting a 2nd interview. by now im pretty sure they have offered some of their positions already for prematch. its a pretty good program, lots of IMGS, so do your best. good luck!

@Psyched: Saw your post in another thread. I have an interview with RF Psych in January. Which hotel did you stay at for your interview? Do you have an email, YM, or Skype? I'd love to hear more about your IV. Smile
