@@alimanski7941 so residency matching refers to applying for the extra training you need to be a pediatrician, opthamologist, surgeon, etc. It is basically a super-glorified and complicated job interview. You can apply to more than one speciality when you apply and can apply anywhere in the country that you'd like to be possibly work.
“nOoOoOoOoO it’s against the laaaaaaaw,” i lowkey kinda laughed at that lol, your skits are always so funny Dr. G :D Have a fantastic day (or night) everybody!! God bless :) 💗
Yeah but it's a little confusing that they can't tell the matchers where they're going. Like, soapers will know where they're going by Wednesday evening
I just matched, and while I don't know where I am going until Friday, I'm okay with it because it gives my peers who are SOAPing enough time to find a new residency. This way they can get their results published with ours, and celebrate with us together on Friday, instead of having to watch us everything during the worst week of their lives.
@@t.j.maresca8845 in short, people who didn't match on round one have to go and beg programs that have open spots left for a seat. Quite often it means you don't get the specialty that you wanted either
@@lynnthomas8457 Some of the best physicians I’ve known had to “beg for their spot” in residency. Unbeknownst to the public, residency rotations/interviews can be more popularity contests than actual interviews. I’m sure the patients you have the privilege to care during would be happy to know your were the most popular option for their care.
The more of these videos I see, the happier I am that I sucked at chemistry and decided med school wasn’t for me. How do they expect this much dysfunction to produce functional doctors?
They expect it to weed out the ones that can’t handle the bullshit of being a doctor. It really is a thankful job controlled by greedy CEOs that have no idea what they’re doing
Ugh same here. Sucked at chem and math. I only liked biology and I couldn't even get that right lol. I wanted to be a forensic pathologist, now I'm thinking of being a full time author and filmmaker or linguist
This is so true. I'm an occupational therapist, and our national board exam is online/computer-based and proctored, so the system does know your score right away. There is no reason it can't tell you right away if you passed, like it does for nursing. But no. It makes you wait TEN DAYS. Passed thank God, but even though it was 6 years ago, I still remember that it was a very stressful 10 days haha
As the eldest brother in my family, I can safely say that's what my siblings said when I tried forcing them to tell me what I got for Christmas. Lol "Noooooooooo, that's illegal!!"
That's what got me with the nursing boards too - the moment the test finishes, the computer system knows if you passed or failed. But of course, you have to wait six weeks to get your results, or you can pay extra to wait only two days for "unofficial results" which are identical to the actual results. Would it kill these bodies to just tell us when they have the results?
To everyone not in med school, the reason for waiting until the end of the week to reveal match results is because the people who don't match at the beginning of the week still have a chance to "scramble" for an unfilled residency spot by the end of the week. When all the results get released at the end of the week, the people who scrambled get to open their letters along with everyone else.
This happened to a friend of mine last year. She didn't match and had to do the scramble. She found a spot but I don't think it was through SOAP. Also each year seems to be different as to how competitive each specialty is.
I love the insight into medicine/medical careers. Doctors go through so much 💩💩 and abuse to achieve their career goal. I understand their arrogance better because of the Dr RUclips videos.😂😂😍😍
Yeah it does, but once you get there I think it would be pretty good. Sure, still a lot of BS to wade through and high work load, but you get big bucks and amazing job security so I think it's a win over all - in addition to the obvious, improving people's lives stuff and studying really interesting phenomena.
Honestly as someone who knows nothing about the medical field these videos still manage to crack me up, while also educating me about the medical field.
I wanna go into the medical field, but I'm genuinely scared because of how bad I am at simply everything. What would you recommend for me ? I just wanna help people.
Go into something lower stakes. If you genuinely think that you're bad at everything being a doctor may not be for you, and that's okay. There are lots of other ways that you can help people.
I had a friend who’s dad applied for a residency program that he THOUGHT was in Columbus, OH (attention to detail GP’s) buuuut to his surprise the program he got matched for was…. Columbus, GA… no where near where he was from… haha. Long story short, he’s still there and has been seeing patients in the Cordele, Moultrie, etc. area ever since… met his wife in Columbus and the rest is rock and roll history. He does great work and attends the migrant workers in the Moultrie, GA area at the farms down there, making a sincere difference in lives. Happy Accidents
They keep it a secret to maintain superiority & in hopes that those with bad/undesired matches will cool off & *not* hunt anyone down if they have the weekend to cope.
It gives you four days for that panic disorder you developed during school to REALLY flare. Which makes the crippling nausea really sing once your friends and family arrive to watch you match bc what if it’s someplace horrid and they’re all let down 😅. And grocery store cake.
I had a colposcopy done the other day and my gynecologist had a resident and he actually held my hand when I got snipped. It sucks that I have cancer but I’m glad I know now so ladies if you’re reading this and you get an abnormal Pap smear deal with the pain because it’s better to know than to get super sick
This is an exciting day for me since my application/interviewing history, examination of my rank order list, and my match email findings are most consistent with matching into internal medicine.
idk how it is like in other countries, but in Singapore, teachers experience the exact same feeling when the school board don’t inform us which class we are taking next year till the VERYYY last moment. so when parents ask us which teacher will be with their children i can only say “idk, but i wish i know too 😭”
Hi. I was the person on 24/7 call for match day watching all the servers and database go from 0% to 100% load/usage for a good solid hour I also wondered about the whole weird shenanigans about how match actually works
I just went through residency match for clinical psych (PhD not MD) and I am so thankful they've dropped this part of the wait! Psych borrowed the whole medical residency matching process to the letter and now they are slowly realizing the process is much more efficient than advertised and the waiting is just torture. We still have to wait the 2 weeks for them to press the red algorithm button though 😅

It's honestly just becoming a physician that is this tortured. Every other degree is not this regimented and abused.

That's why so many people are quitting medicine, though they should have known the risks before they finished med school.
