tmp,
I'm going to UPMC Mercy. I hope that is a good choice. Doesn't seem to be the best program I IVed at but I like Pittsburgh and my wife may find more opportunity there (she is a class mate who is taking a year off before applying to residency and did not score well on her USMLEs). I think I will post a question if anyone knows anything about UPMC Mercy.

is prematch only going to those visa requiring candidates who have successfully taken step 3?

I took the prematch offer, but I was emailed the offer letter with the PDs signature....the program says I will get the contract in March...is this how pre-matches are done?
