@ladyknife,
first i like your nickname
2nd: i haven't applied to swedish, i did apply to bronx-leb but i haven't heard a word.
3rd: my creds are decent but not great. the problem is that we are fighting an uphill battle
99/87/cs all 1st attempt. 2007 grad, us citizen, 2 months OBS,reserch 1 year, 3 us LOR, 2 publications.
4th: i wish you the best of luck.
@All
i haven't applied to Inova Fairfax. also i haven't applied to Swedish which keeps me wondering!!!
so guys the question is did you buy list for the general surgery programs or you searched programs yourself?
hopefully we gonna have a nice day today...crossing my fingers

@fera83:
I did my own research, calling and emailing programs. But a lot of us applied to several programs (80,100, 100+), and there are not so many to choose from, so I think that's why we have so many coincidences.
