Creating for UT Southwestern 2025 Summer Residency
I applied for L&D and mom&baby and haven't heard back from either for an interview. I haven't heard of anyone else hearing back from them either. I also signed up for the acute medical and got an interview for that. I heard you either get an interview from a specialty track or the acute care tack not both. This has me wondering if they are not taking anyone for L&D this cycle and that's why I got the acute care interview maybe.
KGA25 said:a manager from UTSW told me that they rank applicants based on a point system which includes GPA so if u don't have a 3.5 or higher you basically get weeded out and don't get offered an interview.
I think you are right, and the people who got specialty units had ICU or their preferred unit for their capstone possibly?
