Recently matched MS 4 here..

Just trying to figure out when I am expected to have residency orientation.

I assume all residency starts on July 1st?

orientation at most programs is usually 1-2 weeks prior to start date so mid June. If military residency, can be almost a month

Would this be more for medicine residents? I matched into a surgical sub and I don't see myself being that useful.
At the moment you and the future medicine intern are equally useful. They could put either of you on the medicine wards 😛

We will see come July though. This may be all under control by then. Or not.
