   So recently there was a report that came out that said Radiology Dr's get together to create test file (not the exact term) for those coming up to use to prepare for Boards. These Dr's would go immediately after they took their Boards to write down ...

   Jbrock718 posted a topic in SRNA

   How did you find out? Did you get a letter? An email? Was it helpful as to WHY you did not get in? Or was it just a standard rejection letter? I would think that if a school has you for an interview they would have the courtesy to send you some...

   My wife got her letter too. She did not get an interview for Huntsville. The letter said that there were only 8 granted interviews...so maybe 4 slots? GRE scores were probably the only thing she wasn't competive on... Good Luck to all!

10. Please look at my stats & concerns.

    Jbrock718 replied to cak1219's topic in SRNA
