The next best day in your radonc life will be finding out you passed your physics boards 😎

Also - to any who weren't so lucky to match..take heart in knowing that some of the smartest and best radoncs I know (including several on this board) did not match the first go-round. I have witnessed personally many random drive-by shootings in the match with some very good people unfortunately getting left behind on match day. But my experience has also been that most of the folks who hang in there and keep trying are able to get a spot eventually. So while it must really suck to have not matched, try to consider that as you formulate your plan going forward. There are plenty of folks on here you could reach out to for advice.

Ha. I was going to say Oral boards. I actually started getting nervous about them before my writtens 😱

I can't yet speak to that feeling of exhiliration passing the orals..ugh, hopefully I can do the happy dance in June though! I agree this is even more brutal than physics!

Also there were multiple unfilled spots in Rad Onc, so perhaps its not over yet for those who didn't match!
