Some commenters raised concerns about mentorship and support within the department, while others referenced a leadership transition and an internal review tied to resident survey feedback. A few posts also noted lower-than-expected match numbers in a recent cycle.

From where?

Mar 23

Also curious as most programs have said they do not do this x2 \| RTM calls x2 (from a top 10 program) - previous spreadsheets show what programs have done RTM calls in the past (., ., ., Henry Ford, BU, etc) - Was it ., . or .?

WashU or Iowa?

I didn't interview at Iowa, but my friend said he got a call from them. Didnt seem like a RTM, just a hey, we think you would be a great fit, any questions? kind of call.

Mar 23

So you think Iowa called all of their interviewees and said "we think you'd be a great fit"? Or what exactly constitutes a RTM call? Do they have to explicitly say you are ranked to match?

. will make calls This year but as far as I can tell they haven't started

Wash U rejection x4|short and to the point, like it| honestly i'd kinda love it if a program rejected me with a simple e-mail of "No."|Nowhere in your disjointed, rambling application did you come across as a competent applicant. The one person that "skimmed" your application is now dumber for having read it, we award you no interview and may god have mercy on your soul
