I unfortunately matched into a great categorical IM program. I wanted a categorical surgery spot in gen surgery, thoracic or CT surgery. I had a rough season and I am more than qualified for any of those specialties.

If anyone wants to swap, I would be hugely grateful. I am willing to complete the 45 days so we avoid a match violation/requiring a waiver from NRMP

Hold up is this serious? Bro you really think someone will swap an integrated CT/thoracic spot or even a categorial surgery sport for an IM spot?

Please just get a good rest after receiving such bad news, and talk with your family members and good friends who will know what you're talking about.

Why did you apply for IM if you only wanted to do surgery?
