| When to plan on SOAPing? |

My application has now been in over a week now. I have 0 interviews. I know why, it is my Step score, but I obviously can't make up for that now. The rest of my application is at a very high level; however, I imagine my application may not get read or may get a perfunctory glance because I don't have a nsg type score.
-What should I be doing to prepare for soaping?
-What specialties are usually amenable to soaping?
I feel destroyed inside.

What do you use for the letter typically from your home chairman if you don't have one? We have neither a residency nor a neurosurgery chairman/faculty member affiliated with our school. Closest I can get from my school M4 neurosurgery rotation is a non-academic neurosurgeon who is not technically faculty our school, just an affiliated hospital.

| Best way to take consults |

Curious about how other programs take consults. Does an intern or junior hold the consult pager? What kind of rotation are they on, only consults, floor and consults, OR time? They doing night float or a rotating pool?
If there is a big enough compliment then a call pool doing 24s doesn't sound too bad, going q4 or q5. Night float seems like it would really mess you up for a month.
What's the best way to do it?
