Dr. Sara Krzyzaniak (Host and Stanford University PD) and Dr. Michelle Lin (ALiEM Founder/UCSF) are joined by Dr. Jessica Bod (Yale EM Clerkship Director) who gives thoughtful and thought-provoking insights into the EM sub-intern clerkship. What if you decide to pivot into EM relatively late in your medical school career? What should I be thinking about after the clerkship? https://www.ALiEM.com/em-match-advice-44-sub-internship-clerskhip/
Dr. Sara Krzyzaniak (Host and Stanford University PD) and Dr. Michelle Lin (ALiEM Founder/UCSF) are joined by Dr. Abra Fant (Northwestern PD) to reflect on the 2024 Match, after last year's shockingly high number (554) of unfilled positions in the match. We discuss our updated table of match metrics and help provide some context, especially as we look to the future. https://www.ALiEM.com/em-match-advice-43-program-directors-reflect-2024-match/
Dr. Sara Krzyzaniak (Host and Stanford University PD) and Dr. Michelle Lin (ALiEM Founder/UCSF) are joined by Dr. Aaron Kraut (University of Wisconsin PD) in this insightful, rapid-fire, practical episode through the lens of residency program directors. What does the ERAS data show so far? Have there been any surprises or changes during interview season? Has the program signaling option been working? What should students think about in the post-interview stage? Audio engineer: Kellen Vu EM Match Advice Series: https://www.aliem.com/em-match-advice-series/
Dr. Sara Krzyzaniak (Host and Stanford University PD) and Dr. Michelle Lin (ALiEM Founder/UCSF) are joined by Dr. Alexis Pelletier-Bui (Cooper University Hospital Associate PD) and Dr. Elizabeth Werley (Penn State Hershey PD). Both serve as key representatives on behalf of the EM specialty on the AAMC ERAS Supplemental Application Working Group. We discuss the changes made, why they were done, and potential sticking points for medical students while completing the application. We also do a deeper dive on "program signaling". What is it, how many programs can EM applicants list, and nuanced decisions to consider. Audio engineer: Kellen Vu
Dr. Sara Krzyzaniak (Host and Stanford University PD) and Dr. Michelle Lin (ALiEM Founder/UCSF) are joined by the Dr. Abra Fant (Northwestern PD) and Dr. Richard Church (University of Massachusetts PD) to debrief each other and you with what went down with the unprecedented results from 2023 EM Match. There were 132 programs with a total of 554 (18.4%) positions that went unfilled. Contrast that to our usual unfilled rates of 0-30 positions in 2015-2021. We review "The Slide" with all the numbers from the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) from the past few years. We propose reasons why there were so many unfilled positions in 2023. What does this mean for the upcoming 2024 Match? Show notes and tables at: https://www.ALiEM.com/em-match-advice-40-program-directors-reflect-2023-match/ Audio engineer: Kellen Vu
