xthine:
so far so good. have 2 psychia IVs and some IM IVs. Well, at least I think I have 2 for pschia hehehe. Nakakalito yung sa Texas eh. They sent me a letter with subject heading "INTERVIEW REQUEST - DOCUMENTS NEEDED" and nakalagay at the bottom of a looooong list of requirements..."Please remember, if you have all the following documents in hand and can bring
the original of each, we will be able to extend an interview to you"
So sinulatan ko yung PC to say I have all the documents. Got a reply saying that the PD now knows about it and is reviewing my application. hmnnnnn....mukhang IV or hindi IV? hahaha. Bahala na. Will just wait and see what happens next.
Going to UAB Montgomery though for Jan (sigurado na ito unlike sa Texas lol). Pero parang malayo sa Mobile....hope hindi siya tulad sa Cullman kaliit hehe.

still too early for a lot of programs to give IVs...majority of IVs came out in October before so konting tiis na lng!
If I may advise, better try for J1 programs din...the competition for H1b is just too high compared to J1 and easier to get a fellowship on J1 daw if that is what you want after your residency. Asa ka sa Davao? havent been there in years! Miss ko na yung Durian hehehe.

That's great to know, agr.
I applied na po sa inyo eh. Sana mapansin ang application ko. hehe I read at another thread na your program started to give out IVs na eh. So far, no word from Johns Hopkins/Sinai parin. Will patiently wait na lang muna.

hi agr: sayang di ako maka-apply sa program mo! i decided to just concentrate on the west coast. hirap kasi ng malayo sa pamilya eh!anyways, so far silent pa din ang programs dito. i am still waiting for LORs pa din to be scanned by ECFMG.
