Did not match diagnostic radiology last cycle but had 15 interviews.
Potential red flags
Am a DO grad. Have a medical leave of absence I explain in PS which was due to mono-like illness, didn’t hold me back from invites last year. Also explain switch from radiology to path in my PS and my path letter writers describe my strong interest.
Application:
1 inperson and 1 virtual elective path rotations, 3 research positions 2 are path, 5 journal pubs 1 is path related and two others are first author. I have 2 strong path letters and a third from my PD in my intern year. Odd jobs like scribing and Uber.
Stats:
Steps 260/261 and levels 699/690
2H/2HP/2P clinical grades
Top 33% graduating class
Personal statement describes path experience reason for interest, shift from radiology, and describes my intern year.
Why am I missing out on invites? Even if my PD wrote lukewarm letter, would that be enough to explain it?
