Hi everyone! I’m Zainab, a M4 from @MidwesternUniv applying #Neurology🧠 during the #Match2024 cycle! I am interested in health education, palliative care, and neurodegenerative disorders. Outside of medicine, I enjoy constructing LEGO sets, learning languages, and painting 🎨

Before I go to bed, I just wanted to say that Unmatched =/= Unworthy. The system is flawed, not you. (With the physician SHORTAGE, How unfair that ANYONE should go unmatched☹️) I have plenty of friends who SOAPed/re-applied and are residents RIGHT NOW. Your journey isn’t over.

The wait is over! So much work was put into this deck and I’m glad to have played a role in making this deck come to life. Thank you to @JoyfulAstrocyte for this amazing idea and to @AmritaaThalla for giving me so much freedom creatively on the social media side!

Being told that I need to show my ears and at least an inch of my hair for an ID photo when it is known I cannot for religious reasons is really distressing and not something I expected to be part of onboarding process at the VA

I have been meaning to post an update to this tweet (for anybody who cares) because I got access to my institution’s email this week. I had reached out to the VA my program works with by the end of May and spoke with their office and was able to get my ID reissued w/o pushback

I was able to get a new ID photo taken without my hair or ears showing and completely in compliance with my religious beliefs. This week I gained access to my email and found the kind messages GME and VA security sent to reassure me that this would all be taken care of and okay

An advertisement from The Tacoma Daily Ledger, Feb 27, 1907: "Neurologists succeed because neurology is a success." "The human body is a nerve machine, not blood" (take that, blood doctors) "we can estimate the exact physical condition" 🤔
Neurologists Succeed because neurology is a success. Neurology is scientific; it is founded upon mechanical and chemical The human laws. The body is a nerve machine, not blood. The nerves are the life of the body. The eyes are gauges to the nervous system, and we can estimate the exact physical condition. Extra evenings Wednesday and Saturday. DES. WHITLOCK & COLES.

If you survey medical students right after Match Day, the happiest and most satisfied ones are those who matched higher on their rank order list. But ask them again 3 months into intern year, and everyone is indistinguishable. From: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…
Figure 1 from the linked article, showing average happiness and life satisfaction ratings from a survey of medical students right after Match Day. Those who reported greater happiness and life satisfaction matched higher on their rank order list.

Figure 2 from the linked article, showing average happiness and life satisfaction ratings from a survey of residents 3 months into intern year. Happiness and life satisfaction had no relationship to where a resident matched on their rank order list.

CW: suicide Match day is on Friday. Every year I remember a classmate who died soon after not matching. Your life is worth so much more than medicine. Please: reach out to your colleagues. Check on them frequently. Medicine is not your life. Mentors, check in w mentees.
