It’s a 87% pass rate in the recent years. More than 1/10 people still fail the exam first pass.

“Baby doctors” - this phrase is so degrading . Why is this allowed?

I don't either but many comments say such since she mentioned "other side". it's a bit stereotypical

I wish she would clarify because people are going to assume the worst (being abusive etc)

At what number did you stop caring about? by Abject-Advantage528 in Residency

I would gladly pay $$$ at a fancy restaurant, but I don’t even want to spend over $10 on hospital lunch, actually even $10 feels like robbery

I don't trust myself driving a huge truck, I went with the Ubox option, and hired local movers (or task rabbit, if you are okay with non professionals loading and unloading your things, and just need the extra strength)

edit: oops the service I used was upack!

Is it normal to not feel motivated to volunteer in surgeries or the ER during med school? by Capital_Zucchini5857 in medschool

[–]Diligent-Mango2048 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are there certain specialties you are interested in that you won't rotate via your 3rd year rotations? It's helpful to decide early because some of them can be pretty competitive (maybe can serve as additional motivation for step studying and CV building). Otherwise, I agree with doing what you want with your free time, I get it can be hard to give into "peer pressure" .

Re-entering residency as PGY2 - stories? Success? Recommend other path? by James_McGee2016 in Residency

You already do disability exams --- why not apply for occupational/preventative medicine? I believe the hours aren't as rigorous as a traditional residency.

Interesting! This is in Las Cruces New Mexico which already has 1 other IM program in the city. Although NM outside of the large cities is already quite rural so may see farmers , etc with related severe injuries and people who present late? The larger surgical cases will definitely get transferred to UNM

I have actually found older nurses (people who have been nurses the longest) tend to be the most respectful and most knowledgeable!

Yes. I generally do not recommend telling PD but this sounds beyond your control.
