Match day kit arrived in the mail. My last interview is tomorrow. I'm not excited for a computer to decide my fate for the next three years but I'm ready to know where I'm going and start planning.

The Number One Mistake Med Students Make During Residency Interviews

To be clear, there is surely more than one way to totally blow your medical residency interview but, according to Dr. Brian Radvansky, there is one mistake that seems to top them all. The trouble is most med students don't even know they're making it, but you don't have to.

Prepping for residency interview season? Here’s a friendly reminder. #TBT

Residency Interview Practice

Interview ready N95 lines and all. Virtual interview season is weird. The interviews last anywhere from 2-7 hours and you only get an itinerary a day or two before if you're lucky enough to get one at all. And rotations are just winging how much time off they allow med students for them. This rotation offered me a room to interview in so I wouldn't have to miss any days of learning. Sweet but now I'm worried about finishing up my notes once this is over. 2020 is weird and I'm not upset that it's almost over.

one week past ERAS submission

It has been WAY too long since I posted on tumblr, but I wanted to resurface since ERAS has finally been submitted and I made it to the 4th year of medical school partly because of the encouraging community that supported my application to medical school. You deserve to see how this theoretical journey ends and finally becomes reality. 

Took a WHOLE LOTTA magic. But we here. Thanks friends!
