Last Friday, close to 40,000 medical students matched into a speciality at a residency in the United States. This is the day that medical students worked hard for in anticipation of where they will truly begin their clinical training. 4 years of medical school leads up to this special moment.

-his feelings regarding the match and how he felt knowing he matched on Match Monday
-advice for those going into the upcoming match and tips on how to conquer interview season.
-encouragement for those who didn't not match
-what green and red flags he watched out for as he selected which residency to match

-why support is important and his greatest motivating force
and more.....
