Hello Scrub Squad and Happy February! I cannot believe we are already into our second month of 2023! 

With the 2022-2023 application cycle creeping to a close, I wanted to discuss my 2 cycle journey to receiving an acceptance. 
This podcast discusses the highs, the lows, my hopes, and my moments of doubt throughout this entire application process. If you are not having the best cycle OR are looking for some inspiration/ a moment to look forward to, then I HIGHLY SUGGEST you listen to this episode. I discuss the heartbreak of my first app cycle, and then the highest moments of my second, and I can promise you... there is hope, your moment will come, you just need to keep the faith. 
At the end, I touch upon how I decided between 2 of my acceptances, both what I would consider "dream schools." 

DISCLAIMER: No part of this is intended to come off as me bragging or giving unsolicited advice. This is me recounting on MY EXPERIENCE and how I FELT. Applying to medical school is very isolating and I put this out there with the hopes my experience makes someone else feel less alone in their journey. 

The process sucks but will all be worth it when you get the news that your dream will come true: you are going to be a Doctor!

xoxo, Future Dr. Simonetti
