  • hi from Maryland... can't wait for Match Day!

    I just discovered this website and thought I'd say hi! It's really comforting to see that there are people out there as anxious for Match Day as I am. I live with my boyfriend of 4+ years and most of his med school friends don't have significant others, so I don't really know many people in my position. My job is not at all related to the sciences, so every step of the medical training process is completely new to me unless it got a shout-out on Scrubs or Grey's Anatomy.

    On Thursday we'll find out where he's doing his transitional year and PM&R residency and the possibilities are spread pretty much all over the country. I've always lived in the Maryland suburbs of D.C. and I'm excited to live somewhere else for a few years, but the suspense is killing me!

    I know a lot about the D.C./Baltimore area, so if anyone has questions about living here, feel free to ask. Good luck to everyone else who's counting down to Thursday!

          Ah, a hometown girl!

          Welcome to the Boards.

          We have a few members in your immediate area. I keep trying to get all of us together when I get home but it never happens.

              Hi there! My husband is also a MS4. The wait is a killer!! Almost there though. I had no idea PM&R residents had to do a prelim year. I learn something everyday.

                        Wow, thanks for all the great welcomes! Good to see there's some other D.C. locals on here. I'll keep this quick because I'm trying to finish up a lot of work so I can take tomorrow off for Match Day, but thanks for the nice messages and good luck to those of you who are sweating it out (about 24 hours to go!!).
