  • Last year, I went through the residency application cycle and didn't match. But I didn't let that be the end of my journey! I decided to take a research year and reapply. Watch me open my match 2024 letter to see if my hard work payed off!
    In this video, I go through some of the changes I made to my application and strategies I used to successfully match as a reapplicant. I'll be posting another video soon to get into more details - subscribe to my channel so you don't miss it!

    Honestly my first video from you. But anyone who doesn’t hide their lows or use their shortcomings as an alibi for failure, is someone to be reckoned with!! Thank you for being vulnerable, and sharing your unconventional path to match.
