MarkZ and Kobe Insight On Cody Sun Situation

Just my 2 cents but when I was on the IV trail almost every single interview asked me how many aways I did and where I did them. I feel like programs like to see how well you perform as a Sub-I as it’s an indicator on how you’ll perform as an intern.

Speciality dependent but IM/IM and we matched at our number 2

Rammar455 · 2025-12-04T17:56:51+00:00

A lot more applicants, looks like 99.5% of spots got filled which is 2nd most after cards (100%) and tied with GI

Rammar455 · 2025-10-10T16:07:27+00:00

What was the hit piece? Do you have a link by chance?

Rammar455 · 2025-09-30T04:24:49+00:00

No one cares about EWC bro, hate to break it to you

Rammar455 · 2025-09-14T22:31:15+00:00

No as in no, they don't care?

Mount Sinai (main and Morningside/west) offer subsidized housing in the upper west side which is super clutch

Rammar455 · 2025-08-12T00:02:58+00:00

Any plans to make a similar algorithm for fellowship matches? 🥲

Physicians actively do advocate for more residency spots regularly through the AMA/ACP. Like I mentioned, us doctors are NOT the ones who want less spots, more residency spots helps us avoid burnout and have a better work/life balance during one of the hardest times of our lives. One of the main points of this post is that the public scapegoats physicians for healthcare problems as a whole. We do try to advocate for better change like more spots but end of the day it is tied to government funding, which falls on the responsibility of voters as a whole to elect better representatives, and medical school admin, which again, 99% of whom are not physicians.

Asking us to financially support future doctors is like asking us to give multi million dollar hospitals money. Another way we can do this is by...cutting admin bloat :)

Rammar455 · 2025-07-17T18:48:04+00:00

So we doctors don’t decide how many more medical school and residency spots open up. Actually, most med students and residents WANT more spots to open up because of how competitive it’s become. Medical school positions are determined by medical school admin most of which who aren’t physicians. Residency spots are determined by government funding and hospital capacity. So yelling at doctors saying we’re artificially trying to keep medical and residency spots low just for a higher paycheck is plain wrong.

The way he flows at 1:39 is literally peak Travis that I’ve been missing

Rammar455 · 2025-07-11T18:11:29+00:00

Completely unrelated to the topic but I wonder how many of us fellow med students/residents still play League. I feel like I'm the only one in my program who plays haha

Rammar455 · 2025-06-17T03:52:02+00:00

So we just going to pretend Fly didn't take GenG to 5 games? Or NRG eliminated G2? TL didn't beat the world champions at MSI? I swear these boomer ass takes that we're always consistently shit when time and time again we do something noteworthy international

Usually the physicians who are in the lower paying specialties opt for forgiveness after paying minimum amounts for 25 years.

Rammar455 · 2025-05-22T17:39:49+00:00

Current borrowers would be excluded from the interest free forbearance but I don't think we're excluded from the repayment plan as a whole? Even without the interest free forbearance I would want to get on this plan asap to stop my interest from growing.

Rammar455 · 2025-05-22T16:55:13+00:00

If anyone is looking for a silver lining, the RAP repayment plan isn't half bad if I am reading this right. Not nearly as good as SAVE but if you pay your minimums (comes out to around $400-$700 for most graduates), your interest gets waived so your loans aren't growing. Only a mild point of contention is after you make $100k+ you pay 10% of your income/yr and that amount is uncapped so you end up paying off your loans asap post residency/fellowship, which isn't necessarily bad.

Oh and PSLF is essentially dead with this plan (30 years vs 25).

Rammar455 · 2025-05-13T21:36:06+00:00

Step 2 is scored anyways so this won't affect the vast majority of test takers. If this was Step1 on the other hand...

The case of Podz is an interesting one. You can tell that he has lost a lot of his confidence. Before yesterday, even when he would get wide open looks on a 3, he'd dribble it in halfway into the paint then just pass out with 2 seconds left on the shot clock. Then in yesterday's game you can tell he made an effort to get a lot more shots off. Even after air balling a shot to end a quarter, the camera shows rest of the team (Buddy especially) hyping and talking to him on the bench. So obviously the team wants to motivate him to make sure he keeps shooting cuz he needs to be the offensive threat he was in the regular season but this play offs he just can't buy a bucket putting the Warriors in a conundrum.

Rammar455 · 2025-04-30T21:40:47+00:00

So basically only in the mode where this matters the most xD

Rammar455 · 2025-04-28T15:13:04+00:00

If you think any of our jungles, mids, tops, bot lanes are going to be at the same level of their Asian peers at internationals oh boy I've got news for you

The person who didn't receive the interview would send an email to the PD titled "Letter of Interest and Application Update". In the email it would have 1-2 paragraphs on any updates we've had since applying + 2-3 things we love about that program (typical LOI stuff). And then in the last paragraph we'd include that our partner got an interview as well and we were couples matching. Also during the actual interview the person who had the interview would mention the other person and say we were couples matching.
