  UNC Chapel Hill?

Has anybody who's done a sub-I with UNC Chapel Hill, has interviewed there, or is currently there speak to either the sub-I experience or the feel of the residency there?

  Gap year
Posted by: Guest - 11-25-2021, 03:05 PM - Forum: How to prep for applications - Replies (11)

Hey guys,

MS3 here. I’m planning on taking a gap year to do some research but I don’t have a home program. Are there research programs in place at high powered academic centers I can apply into? Any advice on how to get started?

  Does this mean anything?
Posted by: Guest - 11-24-2021, 08:43 PM - Forum: General interest - Replies (2)

Hello. MS1 here. 

I hope to do research with a NS. He told me to do a presentation for him. However, they keep on putting back the date. They never offer an explanation, only tell me a later date. So it got pushed back like 3 times already. 

Is this a bad sign? Does it mean that they don't want to work with me? Or is this the usual thing? He said he was impressed by my resume, but I don't know if that was to be polite or not. 

Thank you all so much

  Anil Nanda put on leave at Rutgers
Posted by: Guest - 11-24-2021, 04:23 PM - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (47)

It sounds like he’s being reprimanded for similar stuff that forced him to leave Louisiana. Thoughts? Also curious - I’ve seen several times on this forum that Nanda has lots of “political power”. How and why? Why is he more “powerful” than other Dept Chairs if he isn’t at a big name institution?

  “Persuasion” Violations or Nah
Posted by: Guest - 11-21-2021, 12:52 PM - Forum: On the trail - Replies (37)

Reading the NRMP match rules and realizing a lot of what I thought was pretty normal questions seem to be violations of the “Restrictions on Persuasion” part of the rules. 

Examples. I’ve had programs ask 
- how many interviews completed/how far into the interview season I am… seems benign
- how many interviews I received… ehh questionable 
- what geographic regions of programs applied/received interviews… benign to me, but apparently not allowed per rules
- what places have I interviewed, I clarified “name them?” Response “yes, what programs” definitely seems inappropriate and is actually a violation apparently

Anyone else getting these sort of questions?

  UW
Posted by: Guest - 11-20-2021, 05:28 PM - Forum: General interest - Replies (19)

Absolutely loved my UW interview, but there wasn't a ton of talk about the call schedule/lifestyle which sounds like the only draw back from this program.

Would anyone be able to give some input about what the typical days/weeks of the junior residents looks like?

Thanks
