Onwards!

I just received my score back today and I'm happy to report that I passed with a 224! A little lower than what I was hoping for but at least I hit the average for US med students (silver lining much?). Now it's time to start the next chapter of my medical school education by sorting out where I want to do my clinical rotations. All I know is I want to do all my cores in New York City and I want to do as many as I can at the same hospital site. I also want to find a place to live that is (somehow) centrally located... in the event that I am scattered throughout the boroughs. Below are the sites of the seven NYC hospitals AUC students go to.



Looks like Upper East Side would be an excellent place to live

  3. Congratulations! Enjoy your time in clinical rotations... the time will fly by and before you know it you will be an intern! NYC sounds like an awesome place to go to med school - my bf and I visited for the first time this year and we had SO much fun exploring the city! For now though, go celebrate! XD XD XD
