@GamerEMDoc What a weird rant

There is no such thing as a “rising MS4”. MS4s don’t call themselves rising residents and PGY3 residents don’t call themselves rising attendings. You are either an MS3 or MS4. MS3 and MS4 have start and end dates. There is no middle ascension time.

@losing_dawg Haha interestingly enough, I think you’re missing quite a bit too. But I digress. Also, she’s not a student

And no that doesn’t mean you have to like her but just understand there’s more interesting things going on with her character and her relationship to those around her than just boo cocky mean student

Langdon and Santos are literally written as mirrors meant to expose the medical world and the audience’s bias against women and yet some of you people still don’t get it!

@DoctaRolle @jmhmedpeds That is my boy Quincy!

Can we talk about this historic med-peds class at @jmhmedpeds 🥹 I’m so happy for yall!

@GamerEMDoc @gracebunemann This idea would foster a very toxic environment and take away the “team first” aspect of EM that is so desperately needed.

What if: - Everyone matches into a 4 yr program where year four is largely extra EM (you’ve done all your icu, peds, etc to meet all those) - In April of 3rd year, residents take ABEM - anyone who passes the ABEM exam and meets all of the procedural requirements of the key index procedures graduates a year early because they have demonstrated procedure competence as well as board cert competence - Anyone who doesn’t meet all of the minimum procedures or does not pass their board exam stays for a fourth year You let the people who are high achievers be done in 3, you keep those that need extra time back for a 4th.

EMRA supports continuation of BOTH 3 & 4 year programs. We can increase standards without increasing training length. Let us know what you think below

@arielleerdz I’m the red flag.

my application red flag that seemed so devastating as an M1 has only been mentioned ONE time during interview season, and only as a “it seems like you grew from it” type of vibe. is this real life am i actually gonna match

@GamerEMDoc You’re an absolute saint for this gesture.

The number of applicants that submit an application with no picture, no PS, no letters, and no board transcript is wild. You have to assign these to programs. It’s not automatic. I message every applicant I see so they know and its corrected immediately but, you’d think a service that costs what it does would warn applicants with a pop up message applying with a “blank app”. If I can get a BPA about sepsis on every patient, surely a BPA that could seriously harm a candidates chances could be designed.

@ShahzebAliM Such a defeatist attitude. That’s why the World will never know your name. 😂

another day, another unrealistic step 2 score expectation 😔 #match2025

@FernanMarmol I was a 38 year old applicant last year. Currently in the middle of my intern year in Rochester, MN. Don’t sell yourself short.

I know that I am an old Medical Graduate, I recognize my own weaknesses and strengths, more than anyone. But I don’t know if I will get any interview. I wish the best from the bottom of my heart for everyone who is receiving interviews. Do your best! 💪🏻👏🏻

@DrCasteelEM C-spine protocol anyone?

I think we just need to accept that some things in medicine we do purely for med-legal protection (real or perceived). Academically debating their clinical utility is great, but that won’t change anything bc it doesn’t change the system that enforces/ necessitates the practice.

@meetjake_ I had a child Riley’s age at the time of the first one and then once afraid, roughly the same age at the time of the second one. Tough tough.

mark this tweet. watch Inside Out after having a child. then let me know how emotionally messed up you are after the amount of sentiment you experience toward your baby from that movie 🥹

@jbcarmody I rotated there. A ton of students are in medical school there with no intent to ever be practicing physicians. Don’t at me, this is what I learned from them

This is a surprising statistic: Only 23% of this year’s Stanford medical school class completed their studies in four years.

You look at the academic trajectory of the docs who are SOAPn, then you ask yourself why? This is not a about entitlement! You get applicants who applied to 200+ programs, cleared step 3, applied only to a primary care specialty, 3+ yrs of research, then what else to prove?

Regarding the #USMLE cheating scandal: An average parent punishes a child for doing wrong. A good parent figures out why the child did wrong in the first place. A great parent asks what contribution they had to their child doing wrong. @NBMEnow what kind of parent are you?

@residencyreview MS4 - 38 years old. This post is ridiculous. The end.

🚩 NOBODY OVER THE AGE OF 30 SHOULD GO TO MEDICAL SCHOOL. IT’S NOT WORTH IT AND YOU WILL CONSTANTLY COMPARE YOURSELF TO YOUR 20-SOMETHING PEERS.

@K_Stephen03 Haha you were crazy

Call me crazy but I think the Giants get it done tonight

@K_Stephen03 100% disagree with the original post. If a resident tells you to leave, it’s because they were one medical students too and they wish they had a resident do the same. Always take the rest.

I’ve learned to always leave early! Take the early rest, go study cause they’re getting paid and I’m not. But when I am there though, I give everything I have, literally…let that speak for itself. Point is MS3s, always leave early if given the opportunity call it selfcare 🤷🏾‍♂️

@K_Stephen03 Sorry bruh, no take backs.

We don’t want you
