I'm looking to relocate to the East Coast from a strong EM program in Michigan. My ideal would be a different EM program but I'd consider psych or IM. I'm headed into PGY 2 but would repeat PGY 1 if need be. I'm in good standing...
I’m starting VSAS now for emergency medicine. Do students normally get accepted to the schools they apply? I’d like to do a rotation at UCLA, but not sure if I should apply to back-ups.
How many applications do students normally submit for Southern California schools? I am going to med school...
I'm still in high school so these specialties aren't definite, but I figured this forum would be better as the question would be answered by people with experience.
I was very interested in getting loan repayment through working in an undesired area, but it appears that only those in primary...
Hi all western medical students. Just a plug for WRSAEM April 1-2, 2016. There is a medical student track on April 2. I pasted the schedule below. If you are in the area, it is definitely worthwhile:

Very eagerly looking for a PGY1 residency spot for this summer. Good US experience and recommendations.
Please help in looking for any post match slot anywhere in the U.S.
Thanks.
Hello everyone.
I am fortunate enough to have been accepted to both of these institutions, and I had a small list of questions.
1. Board Preparation/USMLE: How active is each school's administration and curriculum in preparing students for the boards.
2. Match Lists and Future: I am from...
Hello everyone. I wonder if anyone has ran into this dilemma?
Also, I'm not sure if anyone discussed this, but do people generally recommend EM-> Pediatrics Fellowship vs Pediatrics-> EM fellowship?

I'm constantly going back and forth between Beth Israel Deaconness and Emory as my number one. I just want to hear different opinions on these two programs, and what y'all would do if you had to pick between the two. Here is my personal list of pros and cons.

Pros: Good reputation.

Hi. Thanks for reading. I was wondering whether or not DOs have a good chance to work in Emergency Medicine because that's my interest. I'm asking because I actually really am interested in being a DO and think my stats are more on par with DO (cGPA 3.57; sGPA 3.45 top tier Boston school; mcat...
Third year student trying to decided which programs to apply for. At first, I was strongly for emergency medicine, but I was surprised by how much I enjoyed my OB/GYN rotation. I really liked both rotations, but both have had their cons that are keeping me from committing to either 100%. With EM...
Hey everyone!
I started a specialty series on my blog (http://blog.amandaxi.com) and just wanted to share what I posted on emergency medicine. It seems that EM is all the rage nowadays and since I am finishing up my month as a rotator on EM, I thought it'd be fun to reflect on all the things I...

I am from southwest Wisconsin, 1 hour away from Madison 2hours away from Milwaukee. Are there any Surgeons or Emergency Medicine Physicians looking for job shadowers???
I would love the experience.
Looking for advice from the SDN community, ideally those further along in the process than I, in regards to emergency medicine in general and EM residency. I am a third year DO student, still fairly uncertain what I want to do. I appreciate any help/advice and congrats to the 4th years finishing...

If a derm marries an Emergency doctor what would their lifestyle be like. If they choose these specialties they probably will have kids so lets say 3. I was thinking somewhere around 500k combined. So would there lifestyle be like this...

Hi SDN,
Been a member for awhile now and I've gotten lots of good advice from here over the years, and now I'm looking for some more feedback. Im a 3rd year DO student stuck between a few specialties. I have a top 3 or 4, but can't commit to any single specialty yet. Step 1 >245, COMLEX low...
I am looking to obtain my EMT-b certification as a senior/17 year old in the southwest Ohio area. I know that there is a community college in Cleveland, Ohio that allows students to take an EMT-b certification class as a 17 year old senior, however it is too far for me to travel. Does anyone of...
Hello all. So I haven't seen too many threads on this website about ED scribing, so I thought I would add my two cents to give future premeds an idea of what the job actually is. Please note that everything I describe below is based on my experiences and may vary for you depending on the ED you...
I'd like to use this forum to announce the initial accreditation of the Emergency Medicine Residency Training Program at Brookdale University Hospital & Medical Center. To keep it brief, we are a Level 1 Trauma, Stroke and STEMI Center located in Brooklyn, NY that cares for approximately 100,000...
As a medical student- what is the best way to go about the residency fairs at ACEP and SAEM? Any tips? How to stand out (in a good way) and how NOT to stand out (in a bad way)? Network? Can this help me to get away rotations when I apply for 4th year?
Appropriate vs inappropriate questions to...
Hello all,
Thanks for clicking. Presumably, I know that my title is a little misleading, and you're probably a little pissed, but please hear me out.
I am currently a Junior at a UNI working towards her BS with an emphasis on Medical Laboratory Science. I am minoring in Nuclear Engineering...
I am considering doing an EM fellowship, more to learn more and get more experience. Anyone know what the pay is like being a full-time FM doing ER work exclusively? I imagine its in the upper 200's.
I'm curious to know where ER docs and/or trauma surgeons are issued response vehicles. When that happens, how does that work? Are there special cars that are reserved for docs, or do the docs build their own response vehicle like a volunteer firefighter does?
Hi - I am new to the student doctor forums. One of the medical students just told me about it. I am the fellowship director for the UMass Disaster Medicine fellowship. I've seen some questions come up on the forums about DM fellowships and I am happy to give some input on this topic. Send me...
Hey just hitting up all my fellow EM IMG hopefuls. I am a U.S. IMG . Just applied with a step1/step2ck/cs/us experience/citizenship. 250/259/pass1/U.S.cle/us-IMG I currently have 3 SLOEs from the same program. I'm doing one more ER rotation in October for a total of two EM rotations.
Hi All,
So I am hoping to apply to Emergency Medicine this cycle. I currently have a regular EM LOR, but I will receive my first SLOE by the middle of October ( finish EM rotation by then) and second by the middle of November. Is this too late in terms of applying because I won't have the...
