Is the list available only to those in NRMP? Is there any way for public to access it?

I would call and/or email. If you call and speak with someone, follow up with an email. As far as documentation/MyERAS goes maybe an attending or PD can answer this question since they will need to view the LOR's in the system. Or someone who has matched post SOAP.Hi, Can you clarify little bit of confusion I have. Are you saying we both call and send out emails along with supporting documents downloaded from myeras. Or we pay the eras application fee and then email and call the program to notify that we also submitted an eras application for them. Would you please clarify this for me. thanks
Looks like it is public tomorrowI would also like to know this. If someone can please tell if people who did not participate in the nrmp match this year can still access the list of unfilled programs from now until June?
Thanks
No, you have to have registered in nrmp and submitted a ROL (even if you had no choices) to get access to the unfilled list and participate in soapI would also like to know this. If someone can please tell if people who did not participate in the nrmp match this year can still access the list of unfilled programs from now until June?

That would be a match violation.Can anyone please leak the R3 list lol?

Guys, I can't apply to programs I applied to during the SOAP as there is no icon to save the program and apply. Does that mean I just need to notify them via email because I can't reach them via phone.
Did you interview at those places and they went unfilled? That means they didn’t rank you if you ranked them...doubt that would be a good use of your applicationGuys, I can't apply to programs I applied to during the SOAP as there is no icon to save the program and apply.

got a prelim surgery spot, but 7 degrees kevin bacon know the owner of a hospital with an advanced spot of a very competitive specialty
should i try to finagle something here ?
Yes, we have to pay again to apply to each program; but I couldn't apply to some either because I applied to them already during SOAP/regular season or they've stopped accepting applications. Although, I have sent an email to them since I couldn't reach them via phone.
Regarding the cost of each program for the ones I had to pay, the first two cost 26 USD precisely but the third (a university program) cost 99 USD. I don't know if the latter was some form of glitch but I know after refreshing the page, the price didn't change. The same thing occurred when I tried applying to another university program in another specialty.
Oh sorry, I didn't read your post properly.I applied and contacted the ones I could. No more money at this juncture.
OMG I am so sorry, this process is mind-blowingly unfair, I hope you find something!American DO resident that didn't match last year to ortho, scrambled into a TY, improved my app a lot got a bunch of anesthesia interviews and didn't match that either. How ridiculous to be in this mess twice. Got 8 calls last year and not a single one this year. I have good board scores, good evals, MPH, and multiple research experiences. VP of my class.

@Maxultimate look...$26 for each additional app in the same field after 31
$99 for a new field. Would include 9 more apps in that same field.

Damn man, I really feel this. Sorry this happened to you.this is a totally rip off. One program told me they sill have one spot and I had to apply thru eras in order to apply. 2 mins later, I emailed her that I paid the fee and I was told the spot was taken already. Spent another 300 on eras with nothing coming out of it.
For those who are able to secure positions post SOAP, could you please walk us through what your strategy was and how you were able to secure a spot so fast? I'm sure it would help me and other candidates a lot if we have to face this situation again. Thank you!
I definitely think MPH/and other kind of Masters much more useful. Working as a scribe or assistant may give you some cash, wouldn't count as experience at all.Will having an MPH/Masters in Health Care Administration help though for next cycle? I was leaning towards finding a scribe or assistant physician position because I was thinking clinical experience is better than a masters.
Sorry to those who haven't matched yet and good luck in the next match cycle.
Things you may do:
1- Check for any newly accredited programs on ACGME website (you could filter the programs based on the specialty, and see who does have initial accreditation, or whatsoever ). Contact those programs and see if they are welling to accept residents now instead of waiting till next match cycle.
2- Apply for non-ACGME accredited fellowships. You can do some of those even without residency back home. Some fellowships have spots remains unfilled. The programs would rather have the spots being filled with someone that can do the work instead of having the job done by the attendings themselves. I am aware about certain sub-specialties that offer that. It counts as a great clinical experience and you can prove yourself while doing it. Please be advised that doing this fellowship wouldn't count as a PGY-1 position of residency. Yes, you will be sponsored by the GME office, and you will be having training medical license for that kind of fellowship, but you will not be set for transferring to PGY-2 position, nor count as prelim year, nor be eligible for primary boards. Those fellowships (pre-residency) would still count as normal fellowship training, and you don't have to repeat fellowship after residency if you have interest in the same sub-specialty. However, some of the sub-specialty boards requires an ACGME accredited fellowship, so in that case you would need to repeat the fellowship.
3- Look for research fellowship positions (could be paid or unpaid).
4- Look for a degree program (MPH/MBA/Master Science ...etc). Those would be great addition to have in your gap year if you can afford paying the tuition fees.
Don't waste your time doing other kind of things like observerships or working for private practice as an assistant. If you are working to support yourself then its different story. Those things don't count as clinical experience, and you can't prove yourself and your abilities with doing observership (except if you showed great personality, and have already great USMLE scores).
HI thank you so much for the detailed information. I am not sure how to check for the newly accredited programs in ACGME could you break it into step by step process if you dont mind please.
thank youACGME - Accreditation Data System (ADS)

Hmm really? I read some articles online that were saying programs will be wary of you not having any clinical experience for a year though. How can you get clinical experience if you didn't do scribing or assistant physician in Missouri?
If you haven't graduated yet, delaying graduation would be the only way to still get clinical experience.
Grats @theosteoblasts - I was rooting for you. Let us know if you matched IM or FM.
-Electives during your medical school.
-Sub-Internships/Externships after graduation (limited positions in the country, mainly in Washington DC). There was a program named Providence hospital in DC which closed it's residency program last year. Not sure if its still functional. Another psychiatry program in DC is known to offer externships in Psychiatry and hire the externs as residents.
-Non-ACGME accredited clinical fellowships (look for Geriatric medicine fellowships, sub-specialties in Neurology (Epilepsy/Neurophysiology/Neuroimmunology/Autonomic disorders/Headache).
-Courses and workshops will be good add
-Research fellowships and making 1-2 publication per year at the field of your interest will be influential towards the residency program of your choice.
Other things like assistant, medical billing or type the medical notes really not that helpful. Infact, some clinics would take advantage of the applicant's situation to have them work as cheap labor.
Anyone getting calls from unfilled programs?
Nada =/
Did any of the UN MATCHED had Referees call for them supporting their application? Please reply with yes or no. If unmatched had no referees called for them than we can rule in that it is one of the factors! Thanks!
Thanks for this. I finished all my M4 requirements so don't think I have the option to extend graduation, maybe if I do an online MHA/MPH. The issue is that my Step attempts are what prevented my match so I feel that graduating and taking Step 3 and passing would be the most beneficial. Theoretically, I'm thinking of graduating in May, taking Step 3, and doing an online Masters in Health Care Administration through my school while volunteering/working at a local clinic to keep up my clinical experience. I looked at externships but most seem geared towards US-IMGs and require 5-6 months commitment. I feel like if I do no clinic then programs would question that,

It will depend on the program. In general, yes. But some Primary care residencies have much less time on critical care or inpatient services. And often the leadership of the program will want you to go into PC, so if you arrive and in your first 2 months say "So I want to be a cardiologist..." you may not get great support.Hello guys, I am currently researching programs with spots in IM. Would like to know: are the chances for fellowship the same for those doing the primary care track as those doing the categorical track?
Thank you for your response.
Dude, after the interview, they can. I don’t think you have credentials to be so sure.

It also depends on the field. If you want one of the "outpatient" fellowships - Endo, Rheum, etc -- some PC tracts will be perfectly fine with that.
Honestly, probably not. You would need the USMLE exams, which you might not have taken. You'd need significant research. And you probably need a visa. And you're coming from what I'm sure is a good medical school, but not one that many in the states have ever heard of. And if you were not competitive enough to get a spot in Canada, you may not be competitive in the US.Hello
I am a 2020 graduate from Saskatchewan medical school in Canada. So, I am a Canadian graduate.
I did not match in CaRMS 2020 in Vascular surgery. I am really interested in Vasc Surg. Before immigration to Canada in 2012, I did undergrad medicine before in EGYPT and graduated in 2002 and trained as a vascular surgeon in a 3 years residency training program in Egypt.
the reason I did undergrad medicine again in Canada is to make myself a Canadian medical Graduate.
do I have a chance to match in Vasc surg residency program in the states???
Thanks
I agree with the previous comment about the research and USMLEs.Hello

If you didn't finish USMLEs, then this is the first thing to do.
If you have it handy, then find the vascular program of your interest and ask them for research position. This way they will get to know you better.
Residency is competitive in USA. Many factors being considered here including scores, experience , year of graduation and age. I have heard it from some attendings involve in the selection process, they said they don't like to get older applicants because they would feel harsh in bossing them around (especially if the attending is younger than the applicant). It is not impossible, though, since I have seen residents in late 30s and early 40s before.
