Congratulations Dr. Evil. Nice job!

That piece of paper took 8yrs, and $250K+. Its weird to think I started in the online 914 community back in early undergrad. I have known many of you since then.

Doctors make the worst pilots.

Thanks for all the kind words, all

I am currently taking a year off to get my MPH on line. That is why I have lots of time to BS on the boards. That is also why I am living off of my transmission work

I will be applying for residency this Sept. I would like to do emergency, but I may have to go into family (my second choice) or even psychiatry (my third choice, but I kick ass in psych) due to the current market. This last match cycle found many new doctors scrambling for positions and getting their 3rd pick of career. This is due to the fact that programs have not increased their numbers of slots, but med school have significantly increased their number of students. Really dumb. Most programs are operating in the red in that they are paying out of pocket for some of their residents. The way residency works is that medicare pays for places to train residents. Thus, they determine how many you "need." This is dysfunctional. Most emergency departments are under staffed and even after paying to train some residents out of pocket they are still understaffed. With my MPH I should have an edge over the competition which will make it more likely that I will get what I want. The board scores for EM used to be from 185 (passing) to 210. This year it started at 210 as people who had aspirations of being surgeons were relegated to being EM docs. Everyone loses in that deal as now you have doctors who are unhappy and those that wanted the job are going to have to settle for another field where they will be unhappy, etc.
