Does anyone know much about this program? Specifically how do they cover the hospital call with one resident on research and another in Utah? It sounds brutal and curious what their case volume and diversity is like?

Which programs have you guys seen / heard of that have good amounts of resident autonomy / opportunities to actually operate as opposed to watching the attending operate?
A lot of the “top tier” programs seem to be more about academics and less about the surgically experience

| Step 2 CK for Interviews |

Hey everyone,
I am still confused about how Step 2 CK is used in the application process. My PD seems to think that ~15-20 programs require a score to send you an interview (ie. there is an algorithm in place that will screen out applications that lack a score). However, it seems like many on these forums, if not most, are getting lots of interviews without having a score available.
That said, would people mind listing the schools they've received interviews from without having a Step 2 CK score in their application? I'll start by listing a few schools I'm interested in following the order of the list on the Interview Invites thread.
Indiana
University of Florida
Houston Methodist
University of Virginia
Baylor
Tulane
UAB
Duke
Arkansas
LSU New Orleans
Kentucky
LSU Shreveport
Oklahoma
Wake Forest
UNC
University of Miami
University of Mississippi
Carolinas Med Center
WashU
Vanderbilt
UT Southwestern
University of South Florida
Mayo Clinic Jacksonville
Thanks everyone!

| Past October 15th, Time to Panic? |

Well, it's October 16th. How many interviews should one theoretically be at to feel comfortable now and not be panicking? What the threshold to start talking to your PD or chairman about other options?
If my counting is correct about 70% of programs have now invited.

It seems like there have been a lot of changes lately at Brown with faculty coming up from Hopkins. Did anyone do a sub-I there this year?

Now that this will be an MD program, has anyone rotated through here? Or heard anything about it?
