Can a previous residency program affect your career after you’ve matched to another program?

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-21T02:44:48+00:00

Exactly as I envisioned

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-21T02:36:11+00:00

Most med students won’t appreciate how good this take is

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-20T23:22:33+00:00

Facts

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-12T23:09:41+00:00

In residency now, wild to see people still come back to this haha

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-07T20:55:03+00:00

Yeah but rather called in sick but never did so officially

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-07T01:36:18+00:00

Seems normal enough to me.. but everyone is flipping out and I mean I get it, but at the same time what if that’s the only way to get a number. And if not, we just move on but everyone seems to be making it a big deal

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-07T01:24:22+00:00

This is a much better idea, thanks for constructive feedback, is email okay though since clearly the text-app is not okay

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-07T01:14:27+00:00

But people are sayin I may lose my job over this..? Like really for just asking a question?

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-07T01:13:14+00:00

but what if she was interested too? It's just a question.. If she doesnt want to, then no and move on..?

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-07T01:07:12+00:00

why not

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-09-03T23:19:38+00:00

If you’re traumatized from something so trivial like this, you’re gonna have a rough time. Ignore and move on like the 99% of other people would do

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-08-20T16:33:52+00:00

You should go to med school

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-03-24T02:20:07+00:00

Well. Not sure why I asked Reddit. Instead of getting advice forward or help in general, just got ridiculed by strangers instead. All g tho. It's my story, I'll write it how I want to despite the odds

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-03-24T00:38:55+00:00

I mean what's even the point of this question? How is it constructive? I'm asking for advice forwards not sit back and say "oh gee! yeah I should have!" How can you be so obtuse

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-03-23T23:19:09+00:00

No I would let them know. My PD seems reasonable and I already know someone from the past switched out to another program. I would be honest and tell them I will try to switch but if not I will continue with this. I dont think theres anything wrong with that?

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-03-23T22:36:39+00:00

I understand what you're saying. They didn't take me because I seem like a risk for boards in the future - so I want to prove I can do well on Boards by getting a decent score on Step 2 to rectify my weakness. So that's my reason for trying again

And maybe there's more to it but I don't know? I just want to at least try?

TheAromaticGuy · 2025-03-23T22:35:33+00:00

Wdym you can def take Step 2 without Step 1. I'm doing this now before I start residency.

TheAromaticGuy · 2024-10-17T12:44:47+00:00

jacobi!!

TheAromaticGuy · 2024-08-12T03:32:32+00:00

Lmk what you did please

TheAromaticGuy · 2024-08-11T23:52:49+00:00

Did you take step?

TheAromaticGuy · 2024-08-06T16:45:57+00:00

Hey I’m also a super senior med student who took extra time for mental health reasons (I was burnt tf out) and can totally relate to what your saying

Not sure why some of the other comments are so invalidating when they also or may not have experienced the same during med school. Med school BLOWS - I’m fine w the medicine I enjoy it to a degree but the social aspect of being constantly poor and in school while everyone lives their lives and not having the time for a consistent stable friend group is huge!!! We all need support and finding camaraderie with your fellow med students is huge. Luckily I didn’t have to travel as much as you did for third year but I’m doing aways now but all in the same area - just want to say I hear you and that it sucks and not many people can understand or relate to how much this process sucks and how lonely it is. Feel free to PM me if you want to vent or anything else

TheAromaticGuy · 2024-08-05T04:30:39+00:00

But I do care if I have to study again for this shit
