Hi All,
I first started going to this forum under the above name in 2001 or 2002. I think that was the time when Catwoman appeared first too (if it's the same Catwoman).
In any case, I finished a medicine residency in a UC program in Northern CA followed by a cardiology fellowship in a UC place in Southern CA. Finally it's time to graduate and go into practice...
I had a 5 years graduation gap and scores in upper 80's. I think that there are 2 major points I'd like to pass over to those seeking residency. First, you should believe in your success and luck. And second, try to do research somewhere so that inside people with contacts and influence will be willing to speak for you and promote you (if you are worth it of course)...
Good luck for everybody!
