My great friend, and first year general surgery resident, joins to discuss the whirlwind of emotions and stress we felt exactly a year ago before MATCH week. Match week is when 4th year medical students find out where they will be starting their medical residency in various specialities. Each year, there are more medical school graduates than residency spots available. 4th year medical students have spent nearly a decade towards this goal of placing into their chosen specialty. The process of matching is profoundly emotional, both positive and negative. We share our experiences last year with the hope of making your prematch palpitations chill out as well.
