Senior Resident at Top Program.

There is zero way to quantify or prove this statement.  The Match is often the luck of the draw, a perfect storm of opportunity, luck, and sometimes, nepotism.

I can think of multiple examples over the years of stellar applicants slipping through the cracks and eventually going to a program the next year and having a great residency career.  Don't give up hope if this happens to you.

FWIW, I haven't heard of any new openings or vacancies. Last I heard one of the UIC programs may have had a vacancy and maybe OHSU, but I think that was a while ago and they've since been filled or they're not looking to fill them anymore.

Sorry :/

Dude don’t be so bitter

Nepotism will always be present in any competitive arena. It’s not bad to point it out. It just is.

Who benefitted from nepotism?

Are you kidding? The guy was one of, if not the most, qualified applicants on the entire trail. Stop with the nonsense

Not when you consider that  the entire family just lists each other on their papers to pump their individual pub count.
