OK, I know it's really late (too superstitious to post earlier
😳), but for future years, and for those with persistent matchitis like me, thought I would post my ROL...
1. Boston Medical Center -
😍 LOVE this program, love the patient population, rotated here and had a great time, best trauma in Boston (IMHO), great faculty, actually don't mind the 2-4 format (my version of an EM/IM program)
2. BIDMC - went back for a 2nd look, residents seemed super happy, feel like I would be really happy here too
3. BWH/MGH - best international opportunities that I saw on the trail
4. UMass - amazing program, awesome PD, love the flight program, almost ranked #1 except couldn't stand the daily commute to/from Boston
5. Brown
6. Yale - probably my biggest surprise on the trail - this program blew me away...prob would have been my #1, but ultimately geography prevailed
7. Baystate - also really liked this program, great volume, residents seemed really happy, but was a little concerned about the academic opportunities
8. Maine - my home program, nicest people anywhere, just wanted a change, and distance from Boston pushed it further down the list
9. UConn
10. Pitt
11. Regions
12. Albany
Ultimately it ended up coming down to mostly geography - fiance is in Boston for the next 3-4 years and absolutely cannot leave, so in hopes of preserving marital happiness during residency, I did end up sacrificing my ideal program list some for location. Honestly though, I ranked all the programs I interviewed at because I thought they were all great, and there wasn't one of them that I didn't think would train me well. The differences among many of the programs, especially those in the 2nd half of my list was really very small. If my ranklist had not been so influenced by proximity to Boston, my top 3 would have likely been some permutation of BMC, UMass, and Yale.
I'd be happy to answer any questions about any of these places. Best of luck to everyone in the match this year!

I can't wait for thursday!
