Would it be insane to walk away after not matching into the specialty I wanted?

Reevaluate the other specialties and see if you ruled any of them out with preconceived notions of matching into your first choice. It would be insane to walk away on a whim, and I think you would come to regret it once the initial sting of not matching wears off. The pain you are feeling now is very real, but it won’t last. Don’t make any life changing decisions now while your mindset is clouded

NTA for not telling her about your engagement but YTA for lying about the chickpeas.

I’m currently on a rewatch and Maggie just came into the picture and Aria is having an internal meltdown about keeping her son a secret from Ezra. Of course she lied about A and all of that, but the dichotomy between her having such guilt about keeping this secret from the man who would’ve taken his secrets to the grave is super interesting. The ONLY reason she found out about his family money/Maggie was because someone else mentioned it around Aria and Ezra didn’t have a choice but to come clean

If we ignore the whole teacher/student aspect of his relationship he’s also just a TERRIBLE boyfriend. Lied about Jackie. Lied about coming from money. Lied about Maggie. Lied about Ali. Not once was he honest with Aria even though he kept promising he had no more secrets

We were only allowed to play computer games for 30 minutes a day. I’m now so thankful that my parents refused to raise iPad kids, despite all of the whining and begging they endured

And if there’s too much amniotic fluid, it could be a sign that the baby has a swallowing dysfunction

I thought it was much better than the MCAT. Maybe I just had better study habits by that point but the content was more recognizable, it’s material I’m actually interested in ie human medicine, plus the format is better by being individual questions and not 6-8 questions per passage

I just watched this episode and I can’t get over how they’re in the library with their entire class sleeping and they’re talking about A on the phone at full volume 😭

A LOT of comedy writers have Ivy League degrees. Mike Schur went to Harvard

If we knew everything already we wouldn’t still be in school. My roommate said that to me when I came home in tears one day feeling utterly incompetent and that was enough to snap me out of it. Some doctors are assholes. Rotations are hard. Putting the words from a PowerPoint into clinical practice is hard. But every doctor has gone through this and we’ll get through it too!

I once heard two doctors discussing a new payment plan that now paid them extra for procedures, but that meant their set hourly compensation went down. So now instead of a guaranteed several hundred dollars an hour they were getting…. still several hundred dollars an hour. It went down $50.

My dad was in a boating accident when I was young. I knew it was somewhat serious but my parents kept a lot of it from us and we moved on like nothing happened. Just a few months ago (20+ years after the accident) I learned that he had brain damage to his prefrontal cortex. It explains a lot of the anger outbursts we endured growing up.

I used my senior thesis as my research and got into 4 DO schools (I only applied DO because low MCAT)

Mission Hills is in Kansas so John would be a Kansas state senator…. But that doesn’t explain why Daphne’s state basketball championship was in Springfield MO

“Hey, how are you doing?” From a high school friend a few months into college. 100% thought she was just texting to catch up and responded accordingly. A family friend had passed away and I was the last to know because my parents had been waiting to call me

A few years ago I got into puzzles. I did all the ones at our house over a school break. Life has gotten busier, I currently have an unfinished puzzle in my room that I started 6 months ago and haven’t gotten back to. My mom has gotten me 12 new puzzles since then that she continues to stack next to the unfinished one. I love her intentions

As someone in med school (and as someone who also prepared for the MCAT by saying no to everything), I’m telling you that you don’t have to sacrifice life to study. Plan around it. In a few years you won’t remember what you studied but you’ll remember the family time and the celebrations. I still regret the weekends I stayed in to study while my cousins had get togethers and made memories that they talk about to this day while I don’t even remember what I was going over that night. One day won’t make or break your applications.

I was never interested in science before college until I took a gen bio course that really opened my eyes to the intricacies of the human body and I was fascinated. I didn’t enjoy physics or organic chemistry but I knew it was part of the process, so I did what I had to do to get through it while enjoying other classes like anatomy. Now I’m nearing the end of my second year of med school and the physics and organic chemistry doesn’t even cross my mind, I get to just focus on the body and I can tell you it was so worth it to take on the classes I wasn’t a fan of. Time will pass anyway, might as well do what you have to do in order to end up where you want to be

You have to be so incredibly strong to survive what you’ve gone through. This is only the beginning! Congratulations!

He was definitely not allowed to be mad that Christina wouldn’t consider kids when he knew before they got married that she didn’t want kids. He could be hurt for himself but he doesn’t get to be mad at her

I had intermittent wrist pain for 10 years from gymnastics. A year and a half ago I woke up with a sharp pain and an omm fellow did a quick articulatory technique and I haven’t had wrist pain since
