Tip 91: My Take on Geographical Preference If you genuinely have a geographical preference, especially if it aligns with your Gold Signals and is supported by family or personal ties, it will work in your favor. Programs see this as a sign that you are more aligned, committed, and genuinely interested in their location, which sends a strong and positive message. If you do not have a geographical preference, you may lose that extra edge, but it will not negatively impact you overall. You can still apply broadly and remain competitive. #Match2026 #IMresidency #IMwithArslan #AIinMedicine #ERAS #CV

@waqar4816 Congratulations

It’s been a while since I last posted here, but what better way to return than by sharing this milestone: I’ve officially completed all the USMLE steps. Onward to the next chapter of this incredible journey. I hope the future is kind and worth the years and the tears. #USMLE

Burnout Reason: 1) Unnecessary Admin Tasks 2) Irrelevant QI Projects 3) Extra EMR clicks 4) Insurance denials leading to peer to peer 5) Lack of Appreciation and understanding by leadership 6) Low Reimbursement

Thrilled to take the next step in my medical journey! Hello #MEDX, I am Muhammad Hassan Jan from Pakistan 🇵🇰, applying for Internal Medicine #Match2025. From leading mountaineering expeditions in the Karakorams to serving as Chief Resident, I’ve learned that true leadership is about putting others first. My experiences in Pakistan and the U.S., including working on the WHO Solidarity Trial during COVID-19, have fueled my passion for patient-centered, evidence-based care. As I apply for internal medicine residency this year, I’m excited to bring my dedication, skills, and leadership to a U.S. program, with the goal of making a lasting impact in healthcare. I look forward to connecting with mentors, residents, and fellow applicants.
