Hi all,

Let me start by saying i don’t mean to sound ungrateful as i know matching is a privilege that some on this thread are seeking but hear me out.

I worked pathologically hard in medical school. Did what i thought was right really focused on the content and tried to learn how to be a doctor. When it came to exams and rotations crushed em. Honored 8/9 rotations, 1HP, 270 step 2 and AOA, solid letters and no red flags. Consider myself personable and have always interviewed well.

Unfortunately my medical school didn’t have the best research connections so applied with 0, but now have 1 4th author and 1 5th author paper.

I took some bad advice from 3rd party advisor and applied too top heavy resulting in only 5 signaled IVs and subsequently matching at my absolute safety program which is my medical schools hospital affiliate.

I signed my letter of intent and going to give it an honest try, just having rotated in the system i know what to expect, both on wards and for career path. To be honest I’m very disappointed.

Just wanted to reach out and gauge if there is anyone out there who has experienced /know of my situation and see what the realistic options are for me, or if anyone can recommend a consultant to help me navigate my options. TIA 🫣

Edit: sorry applied and matched internal

Hey all, very excited to get started in a month. Really want to hit the ground running and try to be as competent possible when i start. Now i know there will be some growing pains but figured I can try to position my self now.

1. I took everyone’s advice and chilled all 4th year but now ramping back up, are there any topics/things i should brush up on and any resources you recommend?

2. what are some of the most common intern mistakes or things to remember

3. and other words of wisdom or helpful advice.

Tia from myself and any other intern who might stumble on here 🫡

Now don’t get it twisted, air conditioning in the comfort of your own home is a must. I’m talking about in any public space. As it was 90 the last 2 days this is relevant.

Coffe shop, movie theater, restaurant, office building, convenience store, please stop teleporting me to the place mike and sully were banished to. It does not need to be 55° inside when it is 72° outside.

I live in NY and the weather is Garbo 85% of the year. When it is actually hot out, let me me hot. I don’t need ac blasting at my full tilt to the point where i need to bring a jacket with me just for the inside. If it’s 85 and sunny it’s completely acceptable for it to be 70 degrees inside. Thank you for coming to my TED talk

Edit: this low key blew up, gona call it quits. High of 87 tmrw so gotta dig my winter coat out to go shopping. Stay well everyone 🤙🏻

I have no idea why i ever thought of this but i felt like this would have been a fire plot for end of season 1 or 2.

Robbie (or sinjin) goes to the mall and gets bullied and like stuffed into the locker, tied to flagpole some 90s jock shit. And when the girls find him he says it was the north ridge football team.

Later the guys (beck andre mostly) confront them they get all in their face and are like yeah you guys all you do is sing and dance and aren’t tough like us.

Tori would pop out (bcs let’s be honest main character syndrome—she has to get involved in everyone’s business) and say something like yeah well they can beat u guys in A football game.

Some B plot about Trina trying to form a pep squad/cheer leaders but no one wants to join her—finally people do and then they kick Trina out of her own squad lmao.

Pyschowitz becomes coach bcs why not i don’t think there’s any other adults in the entire show. And he’s like i actually “played a football coach for a Tv show 30 years ago.”

C plot jade doesn’t want beck playing bcs it’s dangerous they get in huge fight.

Moral of the story they like mostly suck until they find out for whatever weird reason Robbie has this cannon of an arm from working Rex as a puppet his whole life.

Flash forward to the game north ridge cooks them first half. Tori/cat do halftime, prob some other hijynx/Shenagains to detract/distract north ridge.

2nd half HA comes back. 4th q down by 4 10 seconds left Robbie gets tackled and his glasses break he can’t see. Beck has to go in at QB and last play of the game he throws a game winning touchdown to Andre, but in the process is tackled and breaks his arm.

He’s taken to the hospital as tori accompanies him on the ambulance ride. They have a heartfelt talk, and they admit feelings and share a kiss. Upon beck arriving to hospital, jade rushes in after hearing what happened. Tori leaves and jade rushes to the bedside, beck now in a sling is being hugged by jade while he looks past her out the window and Tori who is doing her generic Tori overwhelmed look. Cut to credits -end of season.

Bonus after credit scene of Trena trying to flirt with all the north ridge football players as they’re leaving the game, all ignoring her.

F*** Dan Schnider

I apologize in advance if this does not fit, but i couldn’t find a more niche subreddit.

I will start this off by saying i am pretty tech naive for a 30 year old.

Regardless i have a fairly new (2-3 year old) Samsung TV and it is by far the most frustrating piece of tech i own.

Anytime you use the remote to try to toggle through the “home page” it’s either on a significant delay or misses the entry entirely leading it to be a mess. Not to mention the UI is abysmal.

What makes this more frustrating is that once you enter an app (Hulu, Netflix ect) the problems seem to resolve??

I was curious if anyone has ever encounter similar issues or has a remedy for solution, or if this is just a quirk of Samsung TVs? TIA

She is a phenomenal actress and i feel like we got the privilege of experiencing her before she blew up in the mainstream with projects like Penguin, but just wanted to recommend to anyone who hasn’t seen to watch Palm Springs on Hulu (with Andy Sandburg).

Plays on a tired trope but i thought it was a refreshing twist. Also a b99 fan so i enjoyed the dynamic they had together, and really liked getting to see Cristin beyond the limited screen time we got With her in szn 9.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while. What are some all time plays that almost win a championship/pivotal game for a team but end up all but lost to history as a result of the outcome of the game.

The three that stick out most notably to me are:

Marcus Paige’s game tying 3 in the 2016 NCAA finals but ultimately Villanova hit the buzzer beater.

Jermaine Kearse’s incredible awareness to catch the deflected ball at the 5 (Seahawks-pats 2014) erased by Malcom butler

Alex verdugo diving into the stands in the 2024 World Series game 1 game saving catch - erased by Freddy freeman HR.

I’m sure there are tons more that i can’t personally think of, but was hoping to get a running list. Any others come to mind for?

I’m sure there are tons more that just don’t stick out to me based on the phenomenon i mentioned. Can anyone think of any other notable ones?

I’m moving out of my first apartment ever at the end of the month and was curious as to how much cleaning one does before move out. My roomates and I have kept this place in fairly decent shape and obviously would like our full security deposit back. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations on how intense of a cleaning we should do before leaving and if we don’t is that grounds for withholding security deposit. Thanks in advance 🤞🏼
