first rejection - Wayne State in Michigan

scores mid 80's including step 3, recent grad, need visa, 4 US LOR (3 psych).......

they don't offer prematch and maybe they lean more toward AMG's, or an extraordinary IMG who doesn't need visa!!?....waist of 25$.

mlemom, colorado in general is not an IMG friendly state for all the specialties....here's a link that will give you some ideas...

they might even offer you interview too (like a friend of mine in IM last year), but they won't rank you....it's good u didn't get the interview, u won't waist so much money to travel there....G.L.

Hi harry
it seems we should not be sad about Colorado program, these jerks just filtered us without reviewing anything.

Hi rezrez,

According to the last year data, following programs gave quick rejections in first 2 weeks of Sep:
- Univ. of Colorado
- Wayne State University/Detroit Medical Center
- Caritas St Elizabeth's Medical Center of Boston

Let's keep our hopes high on other good programs.

Good Luck.
