We are pleased to find your application for our Internal Medicine Residency
Program among our applicants. We believe we have an outstanding educational
program, and are glad that you are interested in learning more.

We are busy reviewing applications and trying to be as efficient as possible
when extending our invitations. Please do not interpret the silence from us
over the next month to be lack of interest.

****If your application "does not" have the USMLE transcripts for Steps 1, 2
(CS & CK), please make sure that you update the information to ERAS as soon as
possible, so your file can be reviewed in its entirety. Please note it can
take 3-4 days before your transcripts are downloaded. *****

For applicants who are waiting for their ECFMG certificate, as long as you
have your ECFMG certificate downloaded by rank day your application will still
be reviewed.

There is no need to follow up on your application.

Sincerely,
Karen Demarest
Residency Coordinator
Saint Peter's University Hospital

Hi Dr. Wrgturn,

Don't ever reply that way again, they might think you have a premature Alzeimer's that is common in Down's syndrome, and they think you would say the same thing to your patients which would be a disaster. And for patient safety, they will report you to all PDs where you applied, remember they have computereized record of all your ERAS activities.

They send that mail to you because they got your email from your application which they can access anytime,

It is possible that they are being honest by sending the application because, about 5 to 10 thousand candidates apply there, how would you feel if 1000 desperate people suddenly start calling you? They have so much going on already....

They send it to triple 99ers and triple 75ers, all
Please be considerate..

I got the same mail and I admired their honesty.
