LOR:
* 93% of PDs feel LORs from a foreign coutry were useless.
* The # of LORs you need may vary from program to program. In general, I advise applicants NOT to submit more letters than are requested.
* A steliar letter written byy a junior faculty member with whom you've had significant interaction is much bettern than a lukewarm letter written by a senior faculty member of high stature.

PS:
At some programs, the PS is used minimally, if at all, during the screening
phase. In others, the PS is considered very important.
43% of PDs agreed that the most important aspect of a PS is to learn more
about the candidate's personal interests and backgrounds.
Consider addressing the following Qs in your PS:
- why did I choose this specialty? Give specific reasons why your are interested in the specialty.we emphaized that you should be writing about the factors that led u to pursue the specialty, with the emphasis on YOU.
- what am I looking for in a residency program? be specific.
- what are my professional goals in the field i have chosen?
- what are my strenghts?
- why would i be a great fit for this particular residency program?
- what are my outside interests?

CV:
Every line, word, and number on your CV is important.
Don't add the words "curriculum vitae" to the top of the page, as many students tend to do. The reader recognizes a CV. Why waste valuable space stating the obvious?

IV:
IV is the most critical step of the residency application process.
Contrary to common belief, the purpose of the IV is not to dertermine if you
have the qualifications needed to be a resident at the institution. By
granting you an IV, the program has already made that determination. Rather,
the purpose of the IV is to assess fit. Are you the right fit for the
program? Is the program the right fit for you?
Rules:
# Research the individual programs.
# Evaluate your experience in order to emphasize your unique, individual qualities.
# Formulate your msg, make sure that each component of your application reinforces this msg.
# Your msg doesn't mean much w/o the evidence to back it up.
