There were 522 more students enrolled in MD and DO schools in 2006. Those
are the people for this year's match.
In 2009, more than 13,000 people competed for the 1087 unfilled spots, about
half of these were PGY-1 only positions in preliminary surgery and
preliminary medicine. There were 1072 unmatched AMGs (MD). Even if every AMG
would get these spots, half of them could end up in a one-year only
position.

一位大龄CMG宝妈两年完成儿科的经历
力刀
我做住院时,一位校友学妹(88年毕业)也开始准备MATCH,经历多次艰辛,终于进入
NY 一家儿科,用两年时间完成住院医生训练,现以开始在GROUP行医。
我跟她电话聊了一下,希望她能介绍了一些信息给正在摸索挣扎的门外CMG,她很支
持。她告诉了我不少有用信息。大致如下:
她是88年毕业CMG,俩宝妈。USMLE: 76/80/CS(一次)/83,一直在我们病理系做科
研,得到系主任的支持和帮助电话联系介绍,进入NY一家教学医院住院。她在国内
>8年儿科医生经历。所以,进去后减免一年,从PGY-2开始的。完成住院,就进入一
个GROUP行医。
据她说,US儿科协会有规定,如果已往有儿科行医经历(>3~5年),可以减免一年,
也即两年住院就可以毕业申请执照。但这是由各单位自己认证决定的,并非一定可

Sorry, some occupational health residency programs will participate in ERAS in 2010. (We didn't see it in 2009 under ERAS.)
These are advanced programs (start in PGY-2). Due to it's good life-style, small number of programs offered, and decent pay, it's a competitive specialty.
Looks like some are not M.D. residency programs, for example, U. Iowa offers an M.P.H. degree for the programs.

我去年帮一位朋友SCRAMBLE的几点体会(我们总共有4位朋友帮一个人):
1。8-9AM,所有帮忙的人都到齐,主人分配任务,有负责打印SCRAMBLE LIST,有
专司电话联系的(要事前想好说什么,怎样说),有专管ONLINE APPLY,有负责联系内
线的。
2。所有认识的PGY-1及以上的DOCTOR的电话LIST要提前准备好。
3。PACKAGE要提前打印出来人手一份,解释清楚。
4。以上是9AM前的准备工作,我们已经做的很好了,但9AM 一到,大家还是慌了,
主人自己也还是有些手忙脚乱。
5。我自己的体会是所有的PG都只接受ERAS,NO FAX,NO EMAIL,SOME EVEN NO PHONE
CALL,ONLY ANSWER MACHINE。SO DO NOT TRUST ANY COMMERCIAL ADS。
6。密切关注MITBBS,有些同学会把INSIDE NEWS 帖出来,时间最重要。

大进的住院?53岁以后!为什么要做住院?他当年的生活已经很安逸了,孩子都长大

还有,我一师姐--叫人家师姐我都不好意思,人家是我老师辈的。79级的(入学),

我笨,我算不出来。。她的故事和LZ讲的如出一辙。
还有,我一同事,85级的现在是PGY-2,进住院的时候也不小了吧。。
上面是CMG,我还认识一中东国家的FMG,他的名气实在太大(LOCAL),也是AFTER 5

今天凌晨五点半,刚到病房,正有一位护士MM从花瓶里拔出一束玫瑰,略有些凋谢的样
子,显然是昨天插的。她一转身间险的和我撞个满怀。我便指着她手里的玫瑰笑说:“
Is this for me?”她也笑道:“No. It should be FROM you!”。我不知怎么回答,
唯有笑,心里也笑的。如果是以前,我可能会遐想,但现在不了,知道这只是纯净而聪
明的示好,也许暗含一分嗔怪,认为我本应该对她更好些。因为我对Valentine's Day
的理解更确切了,Valentine's Day 不止是情人的专利。
昨天下夜班,交班的时候,是和总住院,一个拉丁帅小伙。这时一个PGY-2印度MM走过
来,和拉丁帅哥的总住院打招呼,然后问他:“What Valentine’s gift did you
bring us?” 总住院嘿嘿的笑,有点不知说什么好。印度MM一耸肩,冲我们做失落状“
See!Now he kept everything for Carmen!”众皆大笑。 Carmen是本院产科的住院医,
总住院未婚先孕的女友,小肚子刚刚现形。

Preliminary surgery is tougher than preliminary medicine. Many AMGs try to
avoid it if they can. Some of those programs are purposely left unfilled, so
people matched to advanced positions only have a chance to scramble for a
PGY-1 spot. Last year more than 1000 AMGs participated in the scramble.

1. Brooklyn, 2,5号地铁直接到。Pg里印度人居多,也有不少黑人。这是我面的唯一的一个fm,10月份接到一个电话,安排在之后的一周。
2. 每年收6个,算是fm里average水平。一半时间在downstate,另一半时间在kings county。 Kings county非常新,颇有五星级宾馆的架势。
3. 听他们pc说一共要发75个interview,感觉match比例还比较高。
4. 当天面试有两三个amg,剩下的除了我都是老印,两个面试官,pd每个人都见,会让present case还有medical questions。其他他们比较在意为什么选择family medicine,这个问题要回答好,convincing并不是很容易,因为我们那边没有fm这科。
5. 一个pgy-1带着tour的,他很喜欢这里,在他认为他们所涉及IM部分的培训和IM program没有什么差异,另外这里只走match,pd不会跟你透半点口风,所以如果喜欢他们就直接rank好了。

OB/GYN
In 2009, 1,185 positions offered, and there were 965 US seniors applicants;
In 2010, 1,187 positions offered, and there were 1,035 US seniors applicants.
OB/GYN residency is “categorical” so no separate PGY-1 internship is
required. A preliminary surgery training could be a positive factor only if
the OB/GYN program can figure out one additional year funding, otherwise it
could be a negative.
For this reason, I'd suggest using IM as backup.

Yes preliminary surgery training can open the door for some opportunities,
it's an invaluable experience, especially for people don't have much USCE.
For the unmatched AMGs, some took a preliminary surgery position if they
like surgical specialties. Others will stay in school for research or
clinical work, and reapply next year.

One big difference.
You get paid by doing surgical internship, and you received one year ACGME-
credited residency training, and you can apply medical license in some
states (most sates need 2 years of PGY training for IMG). Some people can get a
decent job doing primary care with only medical license and experience.
By doing externship, you get no payment and no credits.

The majority of residency funding comes from the government Medicare program
. The total available funding is tied to the resident's terminal specialty.
Here are three examples.
Resident A matched to an IM program, which is 3 years in training. No
problem here, because the maximum Medicare funding for an IM spot is 3 years.
Resident B matched to a 1-year preliminary surgery program. He later matched
to a PGY-2 categorical general surgery program, which requires another 4
