In all our glory, we dissect the gritty details of the ever-intimidating residency interview. We have really enjoyed residency interview season so far. We've had great experiences getting to know so many people and programs. On today's episode, we get into what we've loved, what we haven't, and some of the things that might just have surprised us about our experience thus far with interviews.

What happens when a medical student realizes their chosen specialty isn't actually for them? What kind of medical student is suited for urology? ...or pathology? What is a pre-doctoral fellowship, and why would I want to do one?

This week, we answer those questions and others while we speak with Adam Berry, an osteopathic medical student and pre-doctoral anatomy fellow at Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine - Southern Utah.

Now that we're 1/8th  doctors, we'll be reflecting back on what our first semester in medical school was like. Listen in to what we thought about our introduction to medicine,  what surprised us, made us laugh, and some of the other lessons we learned about succeeding as a student. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll be inspired. You might even get some insight as to how Austin made his way onto a class superlative list.
