Just so everyone knows, Calvin N Hobbes is actually an ortho resident.

Been in a residency for awhile now. He gets a kick out of saying how many interviews "he has," and he enjoys making people feel nervous about interviews.

So you need to take everything with a grain of salt.

well, I failed to match.. and now I'm reapplying.. and I have less interviews this year than last..I applied to half the number of places you did..

I'm jealous.. I'll admit it.. mostly because it freaked me out. But last year, I had 23 interview offers, actually went on 17.. and I didn't match.. so the # really doesn't mean anything.. it only takes one place.

Well, the one thing i'm curious about.. where did you do your research fellowship, and maybe that's what I should do next year (when I don't match

CalvinNHobbes will be easily identified at the socials]

I must admit, I'm very confused why people are jealous/envious/player-hating on someone who already failed to match.

Perhaps it's realizing it could happen to you!

that's true, I guess it's hard to say whether you are a resident or not. you did post a couple of interview offers first on the board, so how would know the dates if you were a research resident?

probably not, i doubt an ortho resident would have the time to check this board 1000000000000000 times a day.
