As expected, I did not Match. I am very much at peace with this as I dig through the trenches of SOAP.
If you are struggling with your outcome, I am here to help!

called my dad in a panic after a bad practice exam score today (my exam is monday HAHA)
he told me to go to lunch on him & not study / think about studying for at least an hour
so happy hour is going well & this is why i have such high standards for men

i think the take that grinds my gears the most is that DO schools aren’t as intensive as MD schools
as i sit here drudging through the EXACT same shit, just with an extra lab every week. that’s literally it.

The best part of this week? Besides my incredibly amazing support system….
All the bookmarks my tweets led to.
This is why I am so transparent about my journey. To help, to inspire, to teach others; current and future.
This is the legacy I wish to pave.

I’ve had weeks to emotionally process an unfavorable outcome. It took a lot of patience and grace for myself to accept a positive attitude about this. It will feel like the end of the world at first, but I promise the feeling subsides with reflection and time.

carry the DO support to your residency/fellowship programs.
while i absolutely love to see everyone educating the public on the validity of our training, it means nothing if we are still looked down upon in the medical community.

this is wrong. i am an osteopathic medical student currently. we do not learn homeopathic/naturopathic medicine. we learn medicine no different than MD schools. we just have an additional lab to learn manipulative techniques. that’s literally the only difference.
