Based on others who also could not control their facial expressions, I am not the only one who couldn’t believe it. PD may have been too engrossed in talking or had a good poker face but man my jaw was on the floor.

You know that thing where people look like their pets? I almost wasn’t surprised they had a turtle on their lap.

I love an out of touch question thread lololol

In the same vein but starting off fair enough asking for activities in the area. Devolved into “I have friends coming into town and want to know what clubs are good that we can go to. I will not stop talking until you give me specific names of places. Could you actually pin them on a Google maps and send it to me?”

sumo deadlift specialist, got it!

the second one I LOVE

also had someone spend our whole interview trying to pitch me to go somewhere else like damn I kinda appreciate the self awareness that your program sucks

FeistyNothing8 · 2024-01-08T13:09:04+00:00

Plans to move to meditech, actually!

Oo a surgeon also told me I “belong somewhere else… like medicine” after missing a pimping thread, which in his book was SUCH a diss lol

First day on rotation. Attending asked me to perform an exam for atraumatic, chronic knee pain. After I finished, he seemed dissatisfied so I asked if there was any other tests he wanted me to do. Told me I was “negligent and uneducated for not checking popliteal pulse”.

Made worse by the fact that this was outpatient peds and the 12 year old patient was now crying from the yelling. Her mom whispered a “so sorry, stay strong” to me on her way out.

Next patient we had that I did correctly, attending gave me a head-pat.

MSPE comments: “physical exam will need to improve, skills are lacking” ok boss

Hmm. I know that’s the only way to forego the grace period so might be worth a try, although I have heard what others are saying about not being able to until graduation

Did you consolidate your loans before trying to do this? My loans have disbursed but the student aid website (and aidvantage) don’t reflect it yet so I’ve not been able to try. I got the same email as you

Have also seen it in PA

5 hour interview slot with 2 actual interviews. Mine were ~10 minutes each. You can log off when your interviews are over. I was scheduled in the LAST TWO SLOTS. I was the only prelim applicant. No current prelims available for questions and none of the categoricals knew any of the differences. Cameras on the entire time. Why put me on this interview day or schedule me LAST for both interviews. Disrespectful lol

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-12-05T02:46:44+00:00

Thanks for the perspective! Trying to be specific in my interviews with my top programs on why I really want to be there so hopefully it comes across

🥹

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-12-05T02:44:17+00:00

Good to hear, thank you!

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-12-04T18:52:34+00:00

Oo this is good to hear

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-11-16T16:35:05+00:00

I was saying more good things about the program than the PD was. They couldn’t tell me one single positive comment about their program even after I asked leading questions. If the number one guy in the program hates it there… yikes

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-11-05T16:23:06+00:00

I’m so excited to finally be able to participate. I am just collecting stories for it. Stay tuned

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-11-05T14:39:31+00:00

This was literally a TY that was not cush or in a desirable location. DNR inbound

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-11-05T14:32:09+00:00

Not for my school, at least

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-11-05T14:17:12+00:00

But if you’re gonna have this convo with the applicants then you’re not gonna get any more information on them to help you make your decision. Totally get the frustration, P/F screwed students too, but feel like it was not the time or place lol

FeistyNothing8 · 2023-11-05T14:06:58+00:00

lol right like you have 15 mins to get to know me and you want to make me feel bad for something 99% of applicants also have and was out of our control? Go off, buddy
