SOAP requires applicants to be fully or partially unmatched. So what if I don't submit a rank list due to zero interviews, does that make me an "unmatched" applicant?

Dear forum, Just a quick question. If you do not match this season by March, how do you go through the soap process? How do you get the list of the unfilled seats and go through the soap process?

I wonder, do we need letters of recomendation for unfilled spots during soap? I mean if someone does not match into plastic surgery and decides to try to get into psychiatry instead. Thanks

The NRMP released some SOAP data here http://www.nrmp.org/pressreleasepostmatch2013.pdf One thing I noticed is that lots of DO's got matched through the SOAP, yeah, good for them :rolleyes:

I checked the 2013 NRMP tables and read up in google a lot of match articles that the ballpark figure is 1500-2000 AMGs unmatched before SOAP? If your an AMG unmatched can you post your story? Specifically what happened during soap?

This is for all the people who are pulling for the SOAP. Please dont feel alone, we are all here to support you. GOOD LUCK. BEST WISHES. Please tell us when the call comes in, what you going for, what you went for , creds, etc.....
