Class of 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
My birthday is actually Sept 6th. So, my score will either be a really awesome present or a really bad one.
 
Class of 2017...what is a specialty that you might be interested in pursuing based off of the shadowing you've done...

Well considering i work for a Fire dept.( im on the ambulance unless we get a real fire and then i jump to the engine) and i also work in an ER. Emergency medicine for sure. Shiftwork, decent salary and no call FTW. Not to mention im ADD lol. You?
 
I am in love with any and all things Cardiology. Interventional Cardiology is really intriguing.

I am really interested in Infectious Diseases for a lot of reasons but not sure if thats where I will end up. Probably will end up in IM/Peds/FM though b/c I do not have any interest in surgery.
 
Hey,

Another hopeful 2017'er here. Anyone else taking the MCAT Aug. 23rd?

Watched it! I've even seen it before I'm surprised I had no idea what your avatar was. It's always great to see some classic Will Ferrell and some SNL from when we were youngsters 😀

Such a good question, my specialty of choice changes every few months :laugh:
Most recently I've been into Anesthesia, Ophtho, and Oncology
I feel like I could end up anywhere except for OB/GYN :laugh:

I got pneumonia earlier this year and was actually admitted for about a week. But an interesting thing happened in the ER. They put me on a code STEMI because of my abnormal EKG. All subsequent tests have been fine, but since then ive had a bit of interest in cardiology and EKG's myself. Its definitely very interesting stuff
 
We've got an incredible pace here people. We're due to pass up c/o 2018 in no time 😎
 
Such a true statement. It does change and this is all preliminary but what the heck. My top 3 interests are: Interventional Cards, Cardiothoracic Surg, and oddly enough Otolaryngology - gotta love those transseptal approaches to eliminate pituitary prolactinomas woohooo😍

Who wouldn't want to pursue a medical career? Really? The **** is epic.

In the words of Shooter McGavin from Happy Gilmore, "I was too busy winning."

We were all too busy being winners - studying, dominating classes, accumulating tremendous EC hours.

Now that our time is approaching....we have awoken 😴 not really...still pretty exhausted

Wtf man. I just realized that the 2016 thread has over 9000 pages.

Filling this thread with nonsensical fluff in 3, 2, 1.

You're very mistaken if you think you can catch us. And that's even with this assist from me.

Though I loved shadowing in the field of Obstetrics & Gynecology, the on-call hours are insane. I think my interest leans toward EM as of now.👍
