ALL IMGs MUST OPINE - letsfight - ArchivalUser - 09-17-2008
Dear friends
I have a question........If we request ERAS and AAMC by email that it should be made compulsory for the programs to mention the clearcut requirements on websites,so that 1.Burden on those programs to screen so many aplications will be reduced and
2.We can save a lots lots money on the applications..........Will it work atleast for the next year candidates?
Your valuable opinion is appreciated.........GL

wouldnt work here.......its all about money, none is bothered about u n me and rest.......why do we have a gun law here, for security???....
not sure about the money eras gets, does it all go to eras or is distributed.....
but their is no harm in doing that, atleast we tried....how should we go about it?

Great Idea,at least we can try.This will help many IMG in future if ERAS/AAMC listen to us.

I thought they have made this centralised process to help both programs and candidiates....not for money....Do you know who gets the 25$ we pay for each program?

nothing is charity in this part unless specified......eras is all about making money.....actuall i dont know where does the money go.........
every company tries to make lives easy and people happy and thats how they get money .....same with eras..
say if we write an email to eras support service, what should be the subject.....reason for asking is, they should receive many mails with same subject and content.......
lets write an email and post it..........and everone can copy paste it.....

I guess this is why they specifically say that we should contact programs and know their criteria before applying.
its a confusing process.
