I am starting a new rotation on Monday, and I emailed my new preceptor like 3 days ago and still no reply. I'll let you know if he ever gets back to me LOL.

I just stop showing up/send myself home nowadays.
Yeah seriously same lol
thats the way. been doin that for a while now lol
I’ve stopped asking and have just been telling my preceptors when I won’t be in. I told them I won’t be there Monday or Friday next week and they were cool with it.
I had Friday covered from the start but decided I'd rather not be here Monday either lol
Same. One of my buddies keeps appeasing his anesthesia attending and asking, which is screwing him. He told the doc “Friday is when we find out where we match and I was hoping to celebrate with family.” Doc- “so you want to leave early then? How does 2 PM sound?” Buddy -“ can we do 12?”
I was laughing my ass off when he told me this yesterday. I’ve been telling him for the past week that he needs to just tell this guy what’s going on, now he’s doing 6/7 days in the OR with this anesthesiologist mainly just sitting.
HAve a dream everynight where I get eaten by a bear.

I’m legit in Greece right now. Just took vaca. My rotation will catch me after match.
Got Monday off!!
For actual match day, anyone who's asking instead of telling is doing it wrong. I started off the rotation by saying hey I won't be here this day it's match day.

My school has a whole breakfast buffet and open bar planned for us. What whack programs have you guys actually scheduled for rotation on MATCH DAY of all days? It’s more important than graduation!

Ditto... my last day of the rotation is Thursday ahah... didn't even have to explain it to my attending. I didn't ask for Monday off tho
a soon to be MD (not DO) on reddit asked what their chance of matching without taking step 2 was...
said they were going to take it after match on monday before they graduate, had 9 interviews.......
Yes I did just neurotically check to make sure all my test scores had been transmitted to programs

I am pretty sure step 2/level 2 scores have to be in before ROL deadline???
my exact thought, and same thought as most of the commenters. Idk what this guy or gal was thinking, or who led them to believe it was ok
We received an email from our school to show our preceptors that we are given the day off as an excused absence if any of them gave pushback.
I'm pretty sure my school would have murdered us if we hadn't taken step 2 by like several months ago???
In unrelated news, I have been learning about cave diving. 10/10 recommend the topic if you'd like a new form of massive anxiety to replace your match anxiety
lol I go caving a lot, but ill never go cave dying
I don't know if this was a typo or an incredible intentional pun but EXACTLY. I'll do many dangerous things that scare my parents but at least they can rest assured i will never go cave diving
Especially for all you future anesthesiologists, The Rescue on Disney+ is worth a watch. I hope you never have to do pediatric cave anesthesia in your careers tho
No they don’t. NRMP makes no requirements of what scores have to be for someone to be eligible. My school certified me without it. It’s up to your school what requirements they have. My score resulted later in the week.
IMG’s though have to have it in. Part of the process for them to become eligible requires it (from the governing body).
As of last night, anxiety is starting to build.
OPEN BAR?!?! damn I'm jealous
D

Yea except this one very big thing that no program worth a damn will rank someone without a step 2ck score before the ROL deadline.............
Your school's requirements or NRMP requirements and your school's verification process don't mean anything(although this is strange because I am 100% positive my school would murder me if I didn't have step2/level 2 in by like December). The vast majority of programs need it in before the ROL deadline, some PD's will drop applicants off the ROL for not having it in by mid February....
Have absolutely no reason whatsoever to be nervous about monday, yet here I am, anxious AF, despite months of feeling cool, calm, and relaxed.
Getting the soap email just now doesnt help either
What is the deal with all these SOAP emails?? My goodness they need to chill, they aren’t helping anyone right now.
Spent the last 4 weeks in Costa Rica for my last rotation, and now waiting at the airport to board my plane back to reality.
Sameeeee. It hit me yesterday.
It’s only 1-2 drinks per person, but still
Lol it’s like midday homie
I’m making the call early. I feel like I did before I got my Step 1 score and I didn’t sleep that night either.
my jaw pain is back, right on cue
Fair enough. I’m planning to take some zzzquil and either wake up to a quiet morning and a match email or wake up to a very annoying ringtone that I’ve set for my school if they call me to start planning soap.
My strategy is to go to bed very late so I can sleep right up until 8:59 EDT because I do NOT want to be sitting there looking at the clock. Good luck to everyone.
I felt so confident 1, 2, and 3 months ago that I would match somewhere (including the gall to think I had a fair shot at my top 3) but this last week has been bargaining with the NRMP gods in my head that I will be ecstatic to go anywhere. What a process!

Getting a lot of PVCs over here lately
