How did COVID affect the 2021 Match? This week's sponsor, Panacea Financial (Member FDIC) is giving away $500 to five students participating in the 2021 Match. Match Week is huge for senior medical students. It's the week they find out if they will continue their training (yikes!), and where in the country they will go to complete it...and this year's match was even more anxiety provoking than usual due to COVID. Were our fears--of large numbers of unmatched applicants, programs with many unfilled positions, and students unfairly penalized by virtual interviews--realized? We try to figure it out with the stats available to us just an hour before recording. Some Grand Rapids, Michigan residents were very bad on Instagram. Hey, future and current students--keep other peoples resected organs off social media, and while you're at it, you really aren't supposed to take pictures in the OR without consent. M'kay? We Want to Hear From You: How’d we do on this week’s show? Did we miss anything in our conversation? Did we anger you? Did we make you smile? Call us at 347-SHORTCT anytime or email [email protected]. It’s always a pleasure to hear from you!
