@ThatCruiseMedic And the number of those who will resume from that 34 might not be more than 20

Last week Friday WACS released result of the just concluded February 2026 primaries. Of the 81 Nigerians that wrote for orthopaedics only 34(41.97%) passed the exam. If for any reason you are planning on writing primaries either WACS or National pls use at least 3 months or more to prepare for the exam. Pls forget those talk of "they are looking for residents, therefore they will pass everybody" Omo you go collect wetin nor good😭

@ThatCruiseMedic Surgery has 3 parts - Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology with 1 hour break in-between each paper. I still feel Surgery is more difficult because most other faculties do two papers except Ophthalmology that has just one. Morning till evening, you are there with them

@Eddykurrent Orthopaedics has 2 parts Anatomy and general You must pass anatomy... And their own anatomy was bloody

@ABUJAPLUG Let’s be friends. I will be waiting for your DM

@Starjessei_web3 Hahahah. Sorry for the laughs. I never expected that last line

Guysssss😭😭… I shot my shot at one handsome dude and he told me he has a boyfriend 💀

One of the hardest thing about the waiting season is that you never know how close or how far your breakthrough is. All you can do is pray for the staying power.

Money is really good, it exposes you to the best products, best meals, best lifestyle, best everything. To top it, it gives rest of mind and you sleep better. No way your skin wouldn't act accordingly.

It began like a dream, But today, it’s a reality. I am thrilled to announce that I matched into the UPMC Diagnostic Radiology Residency @PittRadiology Special thanks to my mentors and friends who supported and guided me through this process. I’m super grateful. #Match2026

As I’m ranting to my friends They’re ranting back to me. “Guy! Things are hard” Me - i’m tired. Nobody to hold for emotional support

I strongly advocate that MBBS students that have passed 300 level exam should never be allowed to drop out of medical school. When schools allow students fail out from PathPharm class to fail out, they become dangerous to the society. Keep failing them till they pass & graduate

@Docfrosh You too like to wahala. Watin be this 😂😂

I matched

Tip 104: For Unmatched Applicants- Stepwise Actions First: Please do not lose hope. In my experience, everyone gets matched in the end. It is a matter of time, persistence, and the right strategy. After working with hundreds of applicants, I have seen that everyone eventually matched. Losing only happens when you stop trying. Second is acceptance. Do not shy away from failure. I really respect the candidates who openly say, “I went unmatched, I need help.” I have seen many kind people step forward selflessly to help such candidates. Seek help and guidance. There is no shame in telling someone you went unmatched. No one in this world has achieved 100% success. Everyone goes through failures, this is a normal process. Normalize this conversation. And if someone makes you feel bad about it, cut them off. You only need positive people around you. Third: Self-analysis is very important. Many people are self-aware, but many have the wrong perception of why they went unmatched. If you don’t identify the real reason and work on it, you may see the same result next year. Identifying the cause is the most important step. For example: If you had interviews and still went unmatched → the issue is likely interview skills, communication, interpersonal skills, and networking. Don’t blame old YOG, low scores, or visa status. You may not have convinced the program that you are ready to do the job. If you had no interviews → then focus on networking, communication, and improving your CV to become a stronger candidate next cycle. These are just a few examples. Fourth: Engage with mentors. Let someone experienced analyze your application and help you build a Match strategy. You cannot go into the next cycle without a strategy. I am always happy to help, guide, and support anyone who needs it. You are not alone in this journey. #Match2026 #Unmatched #IMG #ResidencyMatch #IMwithArslan #AIinMedicine #ERAS #NRMP

I wanted to take some time to celebrate my wife today. She is the usual quiet and non-social media type (and yes two opposite married). Today she matched into the Internal Medicine residency program and by the special Grace of God will be an internist in the next three years. But the journey didn’t start today. It’s being a rollercoaster ride; the ups and downs and she is the perfect description of “when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade with it.” She has mastered that art. In 2016, we had just started dating when she took the decision to go back to med school in Nigeria on completing a degree in Nursing from Ghana. It was a tough choice giving that we had just started our love journey. I had always told her time is going to pass by quickly. But it was not that simple. At Bingham University where he started med school, she was admitted into the second year class given her background as a nurse and was projected to finish in 5 years, but 5 soon became 6 and 6 became 7. Which is something most Nigerians experience with periodic strikes and other administrative challenges. Three years into med school, I moved to the USA and although we were already doing distant relationship, it felt like the distance had widened. Very tough, but she remained strong and God always showed up. At some point, we just made the decision we weren’t going to pause life because we were each developing our careers and so we got married in the middle of the COVID-19 outbreak (another story for another day). It was exciting at least to be bonded in the sacrament of Holy Matrimony. And you won’t believe what followed? Yes, she became pregnant with our first daughter. The initial excitement of getting married and finding out we were going to be parents soon faded as I had to return to continue with my doctoral studies. So here she was studying for her medical degree (anyone who’s been there knows how tough this is) and now she has to deal with a pregnancy which was marred by hyperemesis and my absence through out the pregnancy period. At some point she had to move out of the student hotel into a private residence which was about 4 miles from the university. But that also came with not just the challenges of staying by herself and trying to get to school everyday, but there was (still is) growing insecurity in Plateau State Nigeria where kidnapping was a business and Islamic insurgency was on the increase. I believe I am not able to completely explain how it felt like for her, but she pulled through and we welcomed our first daughter in last quarter of 2021. Thanks to the many family members, friends, and our beloved nanny who showed up for her (us) during and after the pregnancy. I believe that made a lot difference. But the journey didn’t end there. Moving to the US was tough. She had just finished med school and had no time to do housemanship (internship) or national service and little experience in medical practice. Then again, she was very determined to make things work. In 2024, she registered to write the step 1 of the US board exams and whilst preparing , she took on some volunteering and shadowing duties. In the end, she aced the step 1 and started preparing for step 2 that same year, but as God will have she became pregnant with our second daughter. Once again a very difficult pregnancy and we decided she took a break, stay home and just rest for the duration of the pregnancy. Many things happened in between, but once we welcomed our daughter last year, she was determined to be ready to apply into residency in September 2025. She had just three months to read through every material and helping with the newborn. And it all happened seamlessly. In quick successions, she passed step 2, wrote OET, took on more volunteering and externship roles and prepared her application documents (another story for another day). #Match2025
