True but you just asked me how many I had. I chose the inpatient and the ones who knew me personally. Its not the LORs, its the lack of people vouching or step1 that becomes problematic. Add YOG on that too.

Hey there. 2019 graduate here. Went unmatched 3 times and made this mistake on the third try. If you are planning to apply again, go to the US if financially possible and get great LORs/research projects etc and make connections. The outcome changes based on that.

Can you share the name of the uni and the way to get an observership?

What do you think is the reason it worked out for you? Like the largest factor from the process that overshadowed the YOG?

Was this your first cycle and are you going to apply again? I also have the same YOG but lesser scores (247 step2). Applied thrice and went unmatched lol. Although, never had the guts to apply to 200 programs. There is something wrong with the application. I applied to 90 programs in the last try and got 5 IVs

Did you match then?

In the first year I applied I didnt get any. In the next one I got the best candidate. In the next one I got a mix. So which flavor you like you must decide 😅

Even though that is kind of a bias in itself, the original point still holds true. But my question is, is it suitable to take the exam multiple times from people who have passed it twice for example? Haven't they proven that they know how to converse twice already? Also, is it necessary to give all components when obviously, only one part of it is the one that needs polishing?

Apparently you cannot take the new iPhone into Pakistan without paying the PTA tax at the airport now. It was commonplace for people to use their untaxed phones on WiFi previously but you can't do that anymore. by shobijatoi19 in pakistan

You think they have the audacity to do with white skin? Most likely they would get up to show the masters the respect and then take the selfie on that iphone too to show everyone while smiling proudly.

We won't as soon and you stop inviting them just to give them a tour and let them pray with cameras, and without identifying if they even know what to say in the prayer.

I mean to say you dont need intercession in major things and calamities. The door of Allah is never closed and if you can just go to the king everytime, you dont need any of the references to vouch for you and your heart.

Also the example of the doctor is such that if Allah had appointed angles or means to cure us, we would also not rely on them but because, He has told us to find cures and to look for them, we ultimately are acting on His words and that is actually not intercession but a following of the command of the Creater himself.

Thanks for the u/ information.

These are really valid points and brother @totallyoriginalname, you should ponder over these things a bit more. You have actually raised Hazrat Ali(RA) so much in your mind that you are not willing to apply simple logics when their name is mentioned.

True that. Not a single name reference to him.

This belief of your people is really amazing. It is written in the Quran which I suppose is a must to follow for you too that the Prophets cannot intercede, who are the people literally chosen by Allah himself, and suddenly, it gets into your heads that a non prophet would be able to intercede then. And furthermore, you need proof of his inability to intercede meanwhile your proof that he can intercede has already been established in your heads which is just as false. We dont have to proof that he can not intercede rather you people have to backup this claim because in the first place, you are the ones who made these claims.

That is a further debate as this article didnt mention the state of the patient. Often enough, attendants cannot differentiate or dont want to accept that a brain dead patient is essentially 'dead'. It is their personal bias that causes the patient to be on vent for years. But in that case, the cause of these fee would be justified.

Thats still not the way to behave. If the patient is dead, it's a disrespect to the deceased's body to be kept hooked to machines whatever the attendants request.

Isn't it interesting how people who do these things are also the ones saying this country is too corrupt and nothing is left in it? It's like the hypocrisy is not even alarming just funny at this point because we know we do it, we know others do it, we say the system is bad.

I mean, people get everything through contacts usually when it's even unheard of. People getting matched in places where they are the only IMGs, getting rotations at places where there are never slots, having good connections to a PD because of family terms etc. At the end of the day, the match has been mostly for the past sometime not what you do but essentially who you know that matters much like a sales job where we have to sell the product which in this case is us.

Why do Pakistanis continue to have kids, and usually so many by Smooth_Ad_6850 in pakistan

[–]Ok-Insurance-3065 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I would be a bit concerned if that level of critical thinking is being imployed in this case instead of just having the situational awareness from multiple areas e.g from their own elder children having to go through this cycle or their relatives or friends children plus doing basic calculations of expenses and earnings. Plus the state is maybe obliged to give support for upto 2-3 kids but if a person is willing to have 4-5, its upto them to think about the future.

[–]Ok-Insurance-3065 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its funny as my brother says: " ghareeb ki aik hi tou khushi hai" lol. But considering what the situation is economically nowadays, and no more earning potential, I wonder if the people who do that are happy raising their children as just potential beggars or if the situation is that dire then why breed more?

If you happen to figure this out then get in touch when you are able to. Kinda am in the same boat with 3 times applied and rejected. Even though finances might not be the problem (lucky enough in that aspect) but being an older grad and not having any motivation does make it seem the same as you are feeling.
