Hi everyone, I am an MS1 who recently returned back to school after working in corporate America for a while.
Orthopedic and Plastic Surgery are two of the fields I’m most interested in. I currently go to a low ranked MD school.

I was very aware of how competitive residency would be, so I tried acquiring experiences ahead of time. What I currently have going for me:
- Three Nature/Cell/Science publications including one co-first authorship. This was the result of my work at one of the largest Biotechnology companies in the world.
- Another publication from my undergraduate research, as well as a poster presentation at the American College of Sports Medicine.
- A multimillion dollar grant that was awarded for my (PI’s) undergraduate research in another lab.
- Recently submitted a $250,000 grant with the Dean of the College of Medicine that I’m hoping will get approved.
- Experience using artificial intelligence to increase health equity and optimize speed.
Some more information:
- I was hoping to get more extracurriculars and experiences after my first semester or the summer between M1 and M2.
- I haven’t honored anything preclinical yet. I focused on simply just trying to pass this first semester and get acclimated again to school.
- Not that much of a fan of Wisconsin, so I would prefer to not attend my home institution for residency.
