Job prospects for rural general surgery?
As I consider my future career prospects, I am very interested in general surgery. There are certain scholarships available for med students who agree to later practice in rural communities, which I am very open to, but I would like to learn more about the job prospects for general surgery in rural areas. Is it difficult to find a position in one's community of choice (obviously this may depend on the state)? How do salaries and work-life balance, or lack thereof, compare?

Advice Needed - Should I just start over?
I got accepted into 3 different DPT programs. I chose to attend an accelerated program. The curriculum consists of some full-term classes and then multiple bi-term classes (6 per semester) along with the full-term classes. There are no breaks. None. Everything moves so fast and because I wasn't a PTA before starting, everything is new learning. At the time it seemed like a good idea - get in, get out, make money. However, to be honest, I'm not sure that I'm learning at a deep enough level to...

Surgery videos?
May be a dumb question , but any video resources to help with learning this stuff? Like something in video format that could help with Sabiston, Cameron, Schwartz etc?
Im just a lowly PGY-1 but have always benefit from videos to understand the basis before cracking open a fat textbook.
PS I'm in general surgery in particular. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

friend's situation in class
One of my friends is a young woman who lives in Australia. She's attending a medical school in Australia. Their seasons are different over there, so they're not on summer break. They just started a new semester. She doesn't have an SDN account, so she asked me to post this for her.
Here are her words: At our school, we have weekly problem based learning (PBL) sessions. For these sessions, we are divided into groups of around a dozen students. They are led by an instructor. Since the...
