O God! Can't really believe it, but Matched!
It has been such a long, tiresome, painful journey. I have been disheartened more often than I care to remember. Help from family and good friends was vital in going forward in difficult times.
Congratulations to everyone who matched today! It is really great that your hard work is rewarded and your dreams are coming true as are mine.
To everyone who didn't match, don't lose hope. I didn't match last year as was the case with several others who matched this year (i.e., they didn't match last year but matched this year).
If you haven't given a few exams, work to get good scores in them. try to get good clinical experience (univ setting with inpatients would be perfect) and good lors from us doctors. keep fighting - hope you all match next year! GL for everything.
Thanks to all the kind people of this forum who answered my questions whenever I needed help. I know kindness is rare these days as some of my own acquaintances didn't help in spite of being able to. Thank you so much.
