@egyusmler

i had LORs from US psychiatrists and US exp in psych.

@mukeshman

lets support each other...being critical never helps anyone. dstar is playing the game the way its supposed to be played, just like the old quote: "aim for the stars and maybe you'll reach the sky"

thanks goredskins. I dont care what other people think about me. I only care what program director thinks about my application and me.

Thank U goredskins...I just wonder if ppl can still get IVs without any psych experience!! How to show my interest in the field then?!

@egyusmler i think your personal statement will demonstrate your interest in the field. Did you mention any psych patients you saw during medical school in your PS? Also, maybe you start a research project and then have an attending who is guiding your research write an email to the PDs at the programs to which you applied. I know its tough to get research projects but its always worth a try!
