Hi everyone,
I follow the pathology forum from time to time. Its rank time, and I tried so damn hard. I am a carib grad and did not find my niche in other specialities. A pathology PD convinced me to apply to path and so I did. I tried so hard this year, got a few interviews, but I was told up front I would not be ranked highly because I was not "competitive". It hurts to be told that people, it hurts so bad when its from the very people you want to emulate. I tried so hard, hitting all the steps, networking, asking programs for interviews. I mean for me this is just surreal im waiting for march 17 and another failed match day. I don't care where I practiced pathology, just the privilege to be practice medicine and have some stability. I don't care if I find a job at McDonalds or mop floors at this point. I don't know why im posting right now, I just feel in shock and cannot shake this feeling. I think it will be okay after a few weeks, its hard to process right now.
