residency lists - mercygrace - ArchivalUser - 07-17-2014
has any one heard about 'MATCH A RESIDENT' .it is a website that generates a list of programme one is likely to match into using ones credentials like scores, usce, visa status, YOG.
I just want to know if anyone has used this before? is it worth it? cos you have to pay.

I would not trust a list generated by a company, when even the residency programs websites aren't always up to date.

thanks everyone, the reason is im old grad 2006 have not so good scores with attempts. just thinking if there is a way to generate a list of programmes that i have chance of getting interview in. But i guess i ll have to do it my self.

I believe they are running a good service at Matcharesident. I called them last week..They dont use program websites. They communicate with programs by phone. If you are planning to use any service it is best to call and investigate rather than having other make decisions for you. They advertise heavy I suggest you to look at their youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/user/MatchAResidentTV

It's still information that might be outdated or might be false depending on the person that they talked to.

You need to put in a little effort & make your own list if you want your desired outcome.
There is no guarantee that the list is updated to the current year. This is your life at stake, so do NOT try an easy way out!
