Probably took a wrong turn at the Gathertown and got lost

I hated my interview with them. I hope there was a way to let them know that they shouldn't run their interviews that way again!

Same!!! I guess now they know Big Grin

Agreed. Emory interview format itself was horrendous. 5 attendings to a single applicant is way too many and the themes for the rooms felt unnecessarily forced, was not a fan.

Didn't interview at Emory but Utah had 4+ interviewers for 1 applicant and it worked out fine

Didn't the chairman (who's still the current chairman) pull a gun on one of the residents?

LMAO no fucking way

According to the interviews, Cornell the junior residents operate a ton. PA coverage allows interns and PGY2s to scrub at least a case a day, opening/closing cases with chiefs, etc. Best operate experience in NYC.

Volume is good at Cornell, but they get a lot of VIP patients where you get low autonomy in the OR. NYU and Sinai are both higher volume and higher autonomy. Cornell is much more balanced, which is great if that's what you want, I just wouldn't call it the best operative experience in NYC. I don't think anyone outside Cornell would either.

Sinai had malignant vibes
