Have hope folks. It's just one program that sent a rejection. Some programs have not downloaded my application yet. So there is plenty of time to get interviews. Stay hopeful and continue to move forward.

Hi

Mine yog 2011/226/237/cs-2nd attempt/1 month obsie in gastro/home country psych experience two months/need visa.two us im lors/2 psych indian lors. any chances for me?

@ surya, I think even with your good scores, you have rare chances of getting iv in psych with home country- indian lors. You need american lors from a reputed place supporting ur psych usce. Everyone knows that where and how these home country usce and lors are coming from, so it's like a zero value.

@psych4ever, i don't believe that home LOR is useless, they are inferior but they may work still. Last year one applicant with CS attempt and without any us experience got 4-5 IW and matched..
So there is no specific formula for this.

@suzi.. that's true, anyone can get matched, but sometimes we are not aware of people's inside connections. I heavily doubt that you get 5 ivs without single US lor.
