Thanks for asking. I fully matched. Hopefully, in Anesthesiology.

My ROL was about 18 programs deep, and I know it was a bit of an overkill, but just wanted to be sure I match. I had 7 anesthesia interviews and the rest were IMs and TYs.

Other than that, I am an 2014 US IMG graduate, with high step1/CK scores and had my CS pass result in December of the interview season. I think many people (IMGs) did well this season, even though, at times, it seemed like an impossible endeavor. Will let you guys know what region and speciality I matched in come Friday. I sincerely wish the best outcome for everyone in this residency journey.

@fordp : excellent job!

Thank you @shore
I failed to match it's devastating especially when I was almost 100% sure I would ..interviews went very well too but it is what it is.
Hope we all match next year

@dond: if you don't mind me asking you where did you apply and how many interviews did you get? Basically could you post your credentials (sorry I know you probably already did before)

@donb : don't worry about it. You have the right mindset. This process is very taxing mentally since it only takes place once a year (unlike a traditional job market). In the grand scheme of things, 10 years from now, when people are practicing medicine, it will not make a difference if one matched in 2014 or 2015.
