If you’re a physician, there are several events during your medical journey that you’ll always remember, receiving your letter of acceptance for medical school, medical school graduation and Match Day. For those of you who aren’t physicians, Match Day is a very exciting day for medical students. It represents the day students learn where they’ll be doing their residency training. It’s a complicated process that uses an algorithm to match students and residency positions. But what happens if a student doesn’t match with a residency program, what are their options? What do residency programs consider when ranking the numerous student candidates? What are some common mistakes students make during the match process and how can students maximize their chances of matching with one of their top residency choices? These are questions I’ll be asking my guests, Jesse D. Bracamonte, D.O., a family physician and Associate Dean of Student Affairs at the Arizona campus of the Mayo Clinic, as well as Casey Martinez and Kiyan Heybati, both senior medical students from the Mayo Clinic Alix School of Medicine. Our topic of discussion for this podcast will be “Navigating the Match: What Every Medical Student Should Know”.
