Fellowship interview chances
Hi Everyone,
I want to see if I can get some advice on this sub. My spouse is PGY-2, and applying for the upcoming GI fellowship cycle.
Below are some relevant details:
H1B IMG at a good community program (very competitive for fellowships)
Step 1: Pass
Step 2: 260+
Step 3: 270+
5 publications
15 posters (5 DDW, 5 ACG)
Annual Training scores: both above 90 percentiles
Chief resident for PGY-3
Below are some of my questions:
- What are the chances of getting some interview calls?
- I have some spare time that I would love to help with my spouse's application cycle. I would like to get some context that should be followed for these applications (resume and LORs)
- Any personal anecdotes that someone can share to harmonize the application cycle?
I understand good professional relationships help and go a long way during the application process, and my spouse is trying to do as much networking physically possible already. I also understand that the home program is always the best bet.
I just wanted to see if I can get some reality check and then decide how can I help them navigate the stress they are in all the time.
Thank you very much for your time!
