@DuyChung_MD @Inside_TheMatch @ECFMG_IMG @IMG_Advocate @ProjectImg @ACPIMPhysicians I don’t necessarily think it’s fair to throw them under the bus. Everybody is human, has certain limitations, and has a different comfort level with taking risks and they might have felt its riskier encouraging you to proceed at that time. I don’t see malicious intent.
