@meetjake_ I had a child Riley’s age at the time of the first one and then once afraid, roughly the same age at the time of the second one. Tough tough.
@jbcarmody I rotated there. A ton of students are in medical school there with no intent to ever be practicing physicians. Don’t at me, this is what I learned from them
You look at the academic trajectory of the docs who are SOAPn, then you ask yourself why? This is not a about entitlement! You get applicants who applied to 200+ programs, cleared step 3, applied only to a primary care specialty, 3+ yrs of research, then what else to prove?
Regarding the #USMLE cheating scandal:
An average parent punishes a child for doing wrong.
A good parent figures out why the child did wrong in the first place.
A great parent asks what contribution they had to their child doing wrong.
@NBMEnow what kind of parent are you?
@K_Stephen03 100% disagree with the original post. If a resident tells you to leave, it���s because they were one medical students too and they wish they had a resident do the same. Always take the rest.
