Ranking Again, School Done

It seems like it was not too long ago that I was ranking my ophthalmology programs. The results are already back for that I and I know where I will be. However, before I start my ophthalmology training I need to complete an intern year. Tonight I certified my rank list for those programs. I had a pretty good idea what I wanted for spots 1-4, but after that I was not sure. The deadline is not until next week, so there is still a chance I may go back and alter my list, but that is unlikely. At the end of March, I will get the match results.

Tuesday was a very big day for me. It was the last day of my medical school classes and rotations. I completed all my emergency medicine shifts and took the final exam. The rotation was interesting. You never knew what might come through the doors. There will be a few days of ACLS training in May, but that is essentially it before graduation at the end of May.

I am leaving the country for a trip next week, but I am hoping to sit down some time in the next little while to give some thoughts on my medical school experience. Tonight I am just too tired.
