Only 11% successfully match in the scramble and those 11% are AMGs with their dean's office securing their place while we're busy refreshing their 'internal server error' for the bones they throw.
I have received 2 rejections, Mount sinai and Marshal probably the only two who respond the rest like to give the silent treatment.
Programs have ERAS filters and that is how you end up with a rejection or the silent treatment. Since many applications don't make it past the filter you end up with an automated response. like the automated message you get when you place a low bid on ebay for a best price offer.. the seller isn't sitting there reviewing your bid and rejecting it. It gets rejected automatically.. So I wouldn't be too thrilled about a rejection vs. silent treatment.. unless your brand of pain includes getting your attention before ignoring you..
This is my second year trying for this by the way.. if anyone had anything for you, you'd have heard from them by now..
the only question that remains is what now?
tried it all? research, sub-i's externships, plublications.. gets harder every year and there are no areas left to tweak except for sucking up to someone which for some the only semblance of dignity left in this miserable path!
