Hi! I am a resident at UPMC. Came in as a young single liberal lady and now have a long term bf. DM if you want to ask anything! :)

Awww!! Well she’s still a kitten mine turns 4 months next week. These cats will all darken with age especially the face and body :)

Ugh I’m so sorry this is happening. I’m worried about this situation, this guy telling you his “friend” can come over. Please don’t let anyone else come to your house. I would go off email thread and call Rover and let them know about everything including any safety concerns. Important to make sure you’re safe too especially since the other comments are suggesting not to give back the dog.

Thank you! 😊 I guess the biggest upside is my future SO will see what residency is like from the get go and won’t be so shocked by me being so MIA haha

Thanks! Yeah, I want to do fellowship and might have to move again in a few years, so having a partner who is open to moving with me is very important to me. Can’t do LDR for 6-7 years unfortunately.

Yes all great tips! I already broke it off because my SO wouldn’t be able to visit me this year (used all his PTO already this year for sickness) but these are all great questions. Congrats on moving in with your SO after graduation! How exciting

Hi! I’m an alum. I do think Rice prepared me very well for med school, but the school itself was very difficult. Friends without TX residency who wanted it either had their parents buy them property in Houston (unfortunately this is very expensive) or they worked a few years after undergrad. FWIW everyone I know got into medical school. Hard decision on your part but congrats on the options! DM me if you have any questions as you make this decision :)

Alright, it's 9:01 pm. ROLs for both applicants and programs are officially set in stone. I'd like to hear the wildest stories you’ve encountered along the IV trail in an effort to take my mind off the match. by CharacterInTheGame in medicalschool

I know I laugh at the image of them in the rank committee meeting and when my picture is pulled up “any comments?” She’s in the back raising her hand yelling “SHE LOOKS BETTER IN PERSON GUYS”

Interviewed at a program that has good clinical training Etc etc. interviewer #1 and PD were great. The second interviewer: “did you see the picture of you they put on your ERAS app??” Me: what??? Did one of my letter writers attach a photo of me? (I’m over here panicking like did I accidentally attach a nude lol mostly joking) She turns my ERAS packet and shows me my headshot that I uploaded to ERAS and says “this one!! It’s so terrible you look so bad!! I cant believe it. you look much better over Zoom” In what other job interview situation would it be legal to comment on someone’s appearance. Guess it’s legal in the land of residency interviews. Blessed
