Job offer
I work independently through my LLC and do autism evaluations and counseling, mostly with neurodivergent folks. The last few years, I’ve been working from my home office doing things via Telehealth.
I began working collaboratively with a psychiatrist about 6 months ago. We hit it off as friends. Last week, he offered me a 1099 job through the group practice he owns. I can keep my practice and also work out of his office and get referrals from his group.
The upsides are being around...

Columbia-Bassett vs. Yale (vs. UChicago and Tufts/BU/UVA)
I’m so grateful to have a successful cycle and I know I have a lot of wonderful choices! However, I am very indecisive! I was accepted to Tufts, BU, UVA, UChicago, Yale, and Columbia-Bassett. I was WL’d at Harvard and Penn. As of now, I have not accepted my spot on the WL’s, and I think my decision will ultimately be between Yale and Columbia-Bassett (although others are not off the table yet).
I am interested in family medicine or psychiatry. A chill, authentic, collaborative vibe, with a...

New thoracic MBB anatomy
Based on new locations of articular branches from this dissection by Maus, looks like the articular branches are not always coming off the medial branches, or if they are, are very close to DRG.
Doesn't seem like targeting the MB at the sling would do much--would only hit lateral branch. TP targeting seems more medial than previous models. Pedicle shadow technique seems like it would hit MB but miss articular branches too.
Thoughts?

Preparing for a second application cycle - looking for feedback + updated school list
Hello everyone. The cycle has been draining, and I'm on three waitlists, "1 R." I am seeking an updated school list (for both MD + MD/PhD) and any insights for this upcoming application cycle. I only applied MD this past cycle.
4 IIs
1) UMN (WL)
2) UCincinnati (WL)
3) Iowa (WL)
4) Emory (WL but believe will be R)
I received feedback from Iowa about my interview. The only negative aspect they mentioned was some of my answers felt "over-prepared." This was my first interview of the cycle. I...

Acquiring an LOR from Foreign Language Professor?
Hello,
Would it be a viable option to ask my foreign language professor to write a LOR for medical school, since some schools require a humanities/non-science faculty letter? My worry is that they may not know much about the medical school process to write a strong one.
Any thoughts? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Old letters of recommendation issue - LOR expiry?
I went through my university's committee process last year, and they wrote me a letter that is dated 2023. Their letter packet includes letters from all my letter-writers, also all dated 2023.
However, I am applying in 2025, and I understand that LORs >1 year old either expire or lose their value somehow? (Correct me if I'm wrong). My writers wrote letters based on great interactions I had with them well before (and since) 2023 anyways.
In any case, I brought up this concern with my...

Hi everyone! Grateful to be in this position, but I would love some insight into people's thoughts into these schools and what they would choose.

Also done a lot of research and extracurriculars in the health equity space, so I want to continue with that in medical school.
