After applying, the next step will be the interviews this will be held between October and February. Soon after the interview is over, students submit a “rank-order list” to a centralized matching service. <br> You should submit it by the second month of February. Residency programs will also submit a list of their preferred applicants to the same service as same as you are. The process is hidden from both parties, so neither you nor the program will see each other’s list. <br> To follow what I am using watch this videos so you can learn more and get the right information to able for you to know what to do when applying for residency.<br>
