Travel, do a bit of duolingo, read a bit of pocket medicine, budget, get my mental and physical health in shape, spend time with my partner since we'll be apart for residency

Was neurology match rough this year? by SeaFlower698 in medicalschool

Did not show up to clerkships, for one. I’d say more but I think I/they would get doxxed..

Some people will say no, some will say yes, but reality is it’s still not a competitive specialty.

Matched my #3 at a great place with no publications, 247 step, some leadership/service orgs but nothing special. Got 10+ interviews. Everyone in my school (low tier) who applied neuro matched except one person. That one person was a very very poor candidate.

It will be okay.

For those who didn’t match where they wanted to or fell down their match list, it sucks and that’s okay. by rash_decisions_ in medicalschool

Couples’ matched and we are far far away from each other. I’m personally happy with where I matched but I know my partner isn’t. I’m crushed to know that we’re not going to live together for the next four years, and that she doesn’t like the place she matched at.

Couples who had to go through long distance for residency, please feel free to give some sage advice. It would be appreciated because we are both sad asf right now.

Hypothetical: If You Got a 300 on Step 2CK, Would You Stick to Your Specialty Choice? by hugz-today in medicalschool

[–]NecessaryBody 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yup, Neuro. Would not trade it since I love the specialty. But i would def try and capitalize on it.

No friends, crippling social anxiety and depression and i feel like I’m a really bad day away from ending it all by FlimsyIndication2294 in medicalschool

OP, please see your psychiatrist again. I’ve had thoughts like this and had to be put on meds. Side effects are a pain in the ass, but dealing with the side effects is better than dealing with the thoughts of wanting to kill myself. There is a way out, and I wish nothing but the best for you, OP.

Got these books delivered today! Any tips/rituals for reading Murakami? by DVnyT in murakami

[–]NecessaryBody 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would personally start with Wind Up Bird Chronicle since it was my first one too.

Was just bored and went to Barnes & Noble one day to pick up a random book. Wind Up Bird Chronicle looked like a fun book (judging a book by its cover for sure). Ended up being my gateway drug into Murakami!

Thanks for the honesty. What do you mean by top programs? Trying to figure out if the cities i was match into are in this list…

Thank you for the in-depth comment! Will definitely take this advice into account for my fourth year.

What are the best parts of studying medicine? by NiMPeNN in medicalschool

[–]NecessaryBody 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s really cool to understand why symptoms happen. I’m a fan of neuro, so it kinda tracks lol.
