Applying During Scramble

[Ropa]

Here's a question that has been Bugging me. Can anyone help?

During the scramble, Do I call the program directors first prior to faxing them my info...or do I just start faxing my applications to all the unfilled programs like crazy??? :?

if you will call the program, they will tell you to send the application. I think, don't waste time on calling the program, just send the application by all possible means.

What's the consensus....???

Other people are saying that I should call the PDs first because they may request my application via other means eg. e-mail etc....

What do you guys think???
