Reapplicants need extra support as they can feel isolated and overwhelmed when applying and interviewing. Applicants and advisors need more guidance on how to support applicants who are reapplying into OBGYN.
Methods: Interactive workshop and panel discussion
Results: Participants will gain awareness of challenges particular to reapplying to OB/GYN residency and will discuss strategies for supporting reapplicants.
Conclusion/ Discussion: Reapplicants in OB/GYN can benefit from increased, more structured support from their medical schools.
