Hi #MedTwitter! I’m Hafsa, a non-US IMG. I’d love to connect with fellow applicants, residents and programs as we enter into #Match2023. I’m always up for a chat as we battle through our anxieties and look forward together to our future. @Inside_TheMatch @ProjectImg

Six Friends from middle class families graduate from AKU with financial help. They buy 2nd hand overcoats from light house to go for interviews to US in 1991,and became top leaders, surgeons and physicians.This is the POWER of Education. @DrHasanAlam @AKUAANA @AKUGlobal

Last year, I received my first and ONLY interview on Feb. 11, 2022.
And I matched at that program.

It isn't over until it's over. #match2023

Not getting interviews is a whole different level of “and I can’t even get a text back”. #WhereAreMyInterviews #ERAS2023

[Brittany Maner, MD, MBS @Medicine_Maner]

Note to self. Do NOT play the comparison game during this ERAS cycle.

[Ayesha Sadiq, MD @AyeshaSq298]

Whilst people are getting interviews

My ERAS : JAG SOONA SOONA LAGAY

It does not matter if your scores are below average or if you feel like a below-average applicant for residency. All that matters is you get in and you make sure to become an above-average doctor to your future patients!!! #match2023

Am I a “fourth culture kid”? Carrying forward stories of a mystified India and a Pakistan of stories that seem unrecognizable at this point. Growing up in a place away from it (and close to it) and with not much to give of its own.

[Hafsa Fatima @Huff_Sah]

@rendocrinology @Gabby_Brauner27 Same, I think I read The Silent Patient and then Behind Closed Doors and then decided I didn’t want to do that to myself anymore for a while. (A while has been over a year at this point)

[Hafsa Fatima @Huff_Sah]

@Gabby_Brauner27 @IdilKna @yangszechoo You should try The invisible Life of Addie LaRue for a magical break! A little bit of romance, a little mystery, and easy pretty writing.

[Hafsa Fatima @Huff_Sah]

Prayed for all of us to have a successful match season ahead! We’ve done our part, now just have to have some faith ♥️

[Hafsa Fatima @Huff_Sah]

Last night I submitted my ERAS for #Match2023 and this afternoon I’m going to perform Umrah 🕋 (InshaAllah)
This could not have come at a better time. Truly, HE is the best of planners.

Health threats are enormous especially for the most vulnerable, including women and children, who are at increased risk of diseases such as diarrhoea, cholera, malaria, dengue fever, skin infections and typhoid.
