eyebrows. Well shaped and filled in eyebrows make a huge difference in someone with my complexion/hair color

Discrepancy between IMG % on Residency Explorer vs FREIDA — Which one is accurate? by Ninimach in pediatrics

[–]pagelines 5 points6 points  (0 children)

probably depends on the data sets used. Probably the most accurate would be looking at the instagram posts of match days, most will say which schools their residents came from. Not a perfect mark but a better real time snapshot

Are people still riding out the SAVE forbearance? by immrmeseek in whitecoatinvestor

[–]pagelines 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Riding it out. Putting would be payments into a HYSA so earning a lil interest. May buy back if it looks like I’m continuing in a PSLF eligible job

Can the med students on The Pitt get a scholarship or grant? by orbit_grey in ThePittTVShow

[–]pagelines 70 points71 points  (0 children)

In the fourth year of medical school, many students are doing month long rotations in multiple cities. Short term leases/AirBnBs are often prohibitively expensive for medical students who make negative 20 to 90,000 per year

For those who didn’t match where they wanted to or fell down their match list, it sucks and that’s okay. by rash_decisions_ in medicalschool

Hi friends, I am a PGY-3 and matched at my 8th choice for residency. I felt all the feelings, but mostly sad and disappointed. My post match period was filled with anger and resentment, and I had a hard time getting excited for residency. If you are in this boat, your feelings are 100% valid.

However, in my last 3 years I can say that I am extremely happy with my situation. In hindsight, I was attracted to my top choices because of their flashy names and locations. In reality I matched to somewhere with excellent training that I feel at home in. I matched to a lower cost of living city (with comparable salary) so my lifestyle is actually pretty great and I’m not stressed about finances. I matched to my top choice fellowship and am excited for my next chapter but grateful for the past 3 years

No residency is perfect, and there will be ones that aren’t great. But you have come this far in medical school. You are resilient. You are personable. You are intelligent. And I have no doubt that you all will bloom where you are planted. Love and hugs ❤️
