Thanks! I was just about to pull the trigger and apply to Honor health, as I found that it was unfilled in the Main Match last year (9 position, 8 matched), then I read that 3 people here had been rejected... so, no, thank you! You guys have just saved me $26, LOL...

Anyway, here is my credentials:
YoG 2004/226/236/Pass (all 1st attempt); 3 US LORs (Some Obs, but no hands-on); Green card; Asian school.

My Interviews/Rejections (I/R) ratio: 0/4. So sad...
4 rejects were: 2 x Mayo Clinic (La Crosse/Wisconsin & Rochester/Minnesota), Univ of Minnesota (Duluth), and Univ of Florida.

Have you all read these requirements from Honor Health? It basically says "We only take US AMG"

"Applications only accepted through ERAS (Electronic Residency Application Service), aamc.org.
Participation with the National Resident Matching Program.
Current enrollment in a medical school or a residency program, or active engagement in the clinical practice of medicine within the past 12 months (research and/or observerships do not qualify).
Passing of board examinations (no more than two attempts on any USMLE or COMLEX exam).
We do not sponsor visas of any type."

Honor health: Out of 253 residents that have gone Through only 2 IMGs and a few Caribbean US FMGs

looks like the lucky few who got interviews up till now are all US-IMGs ( Caribbean and other neighboring countries) ??
