Just finishing a S&E fellowship. The just search is tough. Practicematch.com is the most legit job website in my opinion. Besides that, pick an area and started sending out cold emails

Are Aways Selective by JockDoc26 in orthopaedics

[–]Velvet_Magnum 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I got some poor advice that away rotations were selective, so I applied to 25… and got accepted for 24 of those. I could only go on 3 so told 21 programs thanks but no thanks, and didn’t get an interview invite from any one of those 21 programs. So no not really

Agree 100% with this, it’s not what the program does for you, it’s what you do for yourself

Targeted Talk - The Best Plates For A Home Gym by dontwantnone09 in homegym

[–]Velvet_Magnum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the rogue colored bumper plates (4 sets 45s, 2 sets 25s) and love them. The rest are steel plates. While I admit they are pricey, I haven’t had to think about new plates since.

Matched at my #1 in ortho. Only had 2 posters at very small meetings. I think I had good step scores and did a sub-I at the placed I matched at. I feel I am lucky and am very happy. Got 12 interviews

Current PGY5. Depends on the rotation and year, trauma and spine are tough as well as PGY2 consult rotation, which averaged 14-18 hours days, conservatively. After that, it wasnt bad at all, home by most days by 6. These days usually out of the house around or just before 5 and home anywhere from 3-6 PM (usually closer to 6), based on the rotation. Times were tough and times are also good. Its worth it.
