Many students devote a significant portion of their AMCAS essays to describing a universal experience that may have piqued their initial interest in medicine. An admissions committee member does look for evidence of how your fundamental connection to humanity will make you an empathetic physician. The problem comes when an applicant starts to make the reader feel like s/he is providing counseling to the applicant, that is, when the candidate uses language that could strike the wrong reader as inappropriate for a professional application. The admissions committee can handle empathetic writing; however, if they suspect you mistook your essay for the journal under your pillow, they may not be forgiving.

Think carefully about the topics you choose. With all due respect to each of us who has had a family medical catastrophe, you can estimate the prevalence of cancer among the elderly and conclude that starting an essay with the description of a grandparent’s battle with cancer is not going to catch the reader’s attention Unfortunately, just because it is genuine, it may not be compelling reading or a useful means to distinguish you from the thousands of applicants whose essays share similar themes.

There are exceptions. You can be forgiven for including a common topic if it directly ties into highlighting a unique personal accomplishment Perhaps grandpa’s prostate cancer diagnosis led you to seek out a research position with a faculty member at your local university lab where you were directly involved in sequencing a promising new molecular marker for prostate cancer. Give the generic topic a brief mention and transition rapidly into how it demonstrated that you are a mover and shaker who took a universal experience and, by virtue of your work ethic and intellectual curiosity, turned it into a contribution to science.

You get a pass on writing about universal experiences if you can pull off a convincing reason to keep the midnight reader going; otherwise, keep your essay distinctive and befitting the professional you hope to become.

Organizing team building games, seminars, outdoor events help to promote team spirit, unity, and reduce stress.

Recognition of Performance
Recognition of performance of employees is an effective method of employee retention.

But if you think it’ll be a walk in the park, think again. Many a banker comes home late – like late, late – to be with his wife and family, solely because the work pressure on him in office kept him working till 10 at night – and maybe longer.

Insurance and accounting jobs are no better. High-pressure work loads make the jobs stressful and largely draining.

While it looks good on your resume to have these kind of jobs listed as work experience, you should count the cost before you step in to fill such a role.

Finance jobs can be quite exciting although, and looking on the bright side of it – at least it pays well. Jobs in Bank Industries have been known to pay over 6 digits per month and sometimes even more than that. But this need not always be the case. Jobs in Banking can be as diversified as there are types and categories of jobs in the market – well maybe not that many, but you get the point…

Helps In Future Planning
Proper documentation done in record keeping provides information about all transactions done in last several years towards filing tax returns, expenses, purchases etc. Through record keeping one can get information on all activities of business. The owner can judge whether the business is earning profits or going into losses. This information helps in future planning as the owner can decide where the funds need to be diverted, policy of business regarding expenses and purchases, product pricing etc. Useful insights into various aspects of business can help in formulating future course of business by means of expansion of current facility, establishing new enterprises, tie-ups, taking loans etc.

Helps Evaluate Performance of Business
Records maintain information about all the transactions done by the business in the past several years. Information about purchases made and expenses done can give the current financial status of the business. Records pertaining to financial, legal aspects of business provide access to old information which the owner can compare with present status. This helps the owner to judge the performance of business as to whether it is in profit or loss. This information can help to take key policy decisions which can take the business out from losses. The records provide owner with information on which products to include and products that are selling. This information helps in business performance evaluation.

Helps To Forecast Future of Business
A complete financial history of the business can be received through effective record keeping. As the owner can get detailed information about transactions done in past, he can know about present profit and can even forecast future of business. Record keeping helps to correlate information on income, expenses, and other financial data which gives picture of how the business is going to perform in future.

Helps In Effective Cash Flow Management
Good record keeping ensures that all the transactions pertaining to finances of business, expenses, and purchases made are readily available at one place. The owner can effectively check the inflow and outflow of cash in the business. Cash inflows and outflows are important factors in business management. The owner can prepare cash flow statement as information about how cash is received and spend is available through records. Thus record keeping allows good cash flow management by making owner aware when and where the cash needs will arise and arranging bankers and creditors to meet cash needs.

Shaping an affordable price for products and services is crucial for any business. Effective record keeping also helps to know whether the product is priced appropriately. Good record keeping helps to save time and money of businesses, improves productivity as employees and owner can engage in productive work, and focus on serving customers.

First of all, realize that residency admissions have become increasingly competitive of late. This is especially true for “lifestyle” specialties like Radiology, Opthalmology, Anesthesia and Dermatology (often termed the “ROAD”). The number of applicants in those fields and others is generally increasing, as the number of medical students continues to increase. Thus, the lack of an invite may just represent overloaded admissions offices.

However, there are a few things you can do to determine your status:

1. Through ERAS, you can ensure your application is complete. I have had several clients who believed they submitted their applications in full, but noted that one or more programs listed their applications as incomplete.
2. If the institution does not expressly forbid it, you can call. Be polite when asking about your status. I have had an occasional client who is invited for an interview upon calling.
3. Send a letter of intent. Let the program(s) know of your continued interest and your new accomplishments. Ensure the letter is well written, streamlined and brief.

One would never take the USMLE Boards without practicing first and yet, countless applicants go to their medical school interviews without preparing. Once you receive your first invitation, consider working with a professional: Because applicants can unknowingly undermine their chances of success with poor interview skills, a qualified, personalized residency admissions consultant provides a great advantage.

Medical residency admissions consulting companies come in a variety of forms. Some are bigger businesses that focus on admissions to several types of graduate programs – not just medicine. Others are smaller and provide a medical focus, but have a pool of consultants of varying quality. Finally, elite companies offer both the medical focus and a highly experienced consultant who works one-on-one with clients. These professionals are ex-admissions officers from highly respected medical institutions. They have the inside knowledge of how residency admissions work, providing individualized guidance to optimize applicants’ personal statements, applications and interview skills.

When choosing a residency admissions consulting company, a candidate should verify the company’s references and research its consultants. Elite companies that offer both the medical focus and a highly experienced consultant who works one-on-one with clients offer a large advantage for pre-residency applicants, especially during these competitive times.

Thank you notes can be good ways to alert institutions of your interest. They can also serve as reminders to your candidacy.

The thank you note should follow these rules:

1.It should be sent immediately after your interview. Because you don’t know when your medical school application will be considered, the sooner the better.
2.It should be hand written. An emailed thank you note looks lazy and may be deleted. The reader should not need to take the extra step to print out your note to place it into your file. One that is written by hand shows consideration and interest.
3.It should be short. Keep it to four or five lines. Otherwise it will be skimmed – not read.
4.It should be written in a formal format. Even if someone tells you to call her by her first name, the thank you note should include the person’s title, e.g. Dr. Smith.
5.It should be sent to everyone with whom you interviewed.
6.It can be personalized. If you spoke about your mutual interest in ballet, it’s smart to include that to distinguish yourself.

The Scramble calendar (for 2010) is as follows:

On Monday, March 15 applicant matched and unmatched information is posted to the NRMP website at noon EST. Residency candidates can log in with their AAMC ID number and password to find out if they have matched but not where. (The list of residencies that have not filled is not yet available.)

On Tuesday, March 16 at noon EST the Scramble starts when the list of residency programs with unfilled positions is posted onto the NRMP website. This means that unmatched applicants (who submitted a certified rank order list for the Match) will be given access to the NRMP’s “Dynamic List of Unfilled Programs.” The list is dynamic because it is updated by the NRMP every hour to demonstrate the number of remaining positions at each residency program. During the Scramble, an applicant may apply to a maximum of thirty new programs in addition to fifteen “old” programs (residencies to which s/he applied during the regular ERAS season). There is no charge for applying to programs during the Scramble.

On Thursday, March 18 the Scramble ends at noon EST and the Match results are available at 1pm EST.

Please see my article entitled, “How to Plan for the Scramble” for tips on how to best organize your time and application materials in case you are forced to scramble.

The best plan for the Scramble, of course, is to avoid it altogether. To improve your residency candidacy fully and thus improve your chances of matching, consider working with a professional. Because applicants can unknowingly undermine their chances of success with poorly compiled application materials and underdeveloped residency personal statements, a qualified, personalized residency admissions consultant provides a great advantage.
