RESIDENCY MATCH: love letters, making your rank lists and my match week experience
As a graduating [4th year] medical student, should you send a "love letter" or letter of intent to your #1 ranked residency program? Should you send letters to multiple programs professing their top position on your list? These are some of the questions I've frequently received from students and I wanted to share my personal approach and some advice in the area. I also decided to ramble on about how I prioritized programs on my rank list [e.g. did my significant other at the time impact my list?] and my experience with match week. Don't forget to to check out the blog entry [where I also share the love letter I personally sent as a medical student to my top choice program]: https://blog.amandaxi.com/2021/01/19/...
