- Interview Experience:
Very nice faculty and very nice interviewers. 2 of them were residents.
- Program Advantages:
They ranked me - that was a HUGE advantage for me! Very friendly atmosphere. Extremely impressive residents. Tons of equipment, huge department, really nice facilities. NIH director was old rads department chair at Hopkins.
- Program Disadvantages:
They say Baltimore is, but have lived in Philly and Saint Louis which are supposed to be horrible dangerous cities and had a great time in both. Plan on living in Federal Hill, Canton, or some other interesting Inner Harbor neighborhood.

Match Experience
Applied to 45, received invites from 18, only went on 14. Matched at #1 so it makes me think I didn't have to interview at all 14, but I have heard stories of those that interviewed at 14 and didn't match. Please note that my interviews roughly obeyed the Rule of 1/3's. Make sure yours do as well or you might find yourself unmatched in March.
