College of Medicine Holds Annual Match Day March 15
UC medical students are getting ready for their big day--when they'll find out where they will spend the next three to five years in training to further their careers as physicians.
An annual right of passage at medical schools across the nation, Match Day is when fourth-year students learn where they are "matched for their residency training. Student names are called, lottery-style, during the event, and they open their envelope hoping to see their top choice of hospital and specialty.
The 2013 medical student Match Day will be held at 11:30 a.m. Friday, March 15. More than 150 students will learn their matches in MSB E-351, with overflow seating in Kresge Auditorium. The matching will be screened live in Kresge and be streamed live online on Friday.
Fourth-year student David Moon is hoping to match into a pediatric neurology, either at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center or at one of the large academic centers he applied to across the country. His residency program would total five years: two in pediatric training and three studying neurology.
