    Parent of a MS2. I love watching your channel to understand how to support my daughter. This week was her first official week studying for Step 1. I am use to talking to her almost daily, but she is head down now, so, I miss talking to her. Your content has been great for me understanding. Best of luck!!!. I don’t doubt that your path is already set for you with great things. Your father is smiling because like us, he is so proud of you!!!!

    I still remember when you began medical school and moving in to your apartment. You have come a long way and you should be SUPER proud of yourself for all the hard work. Your videos have been amazing. Hopefully you get into your chosen Anesthesiology residency. Can't wait for the videos of when you'll be making videos of you working as a resident. Keep it up!

    Loved the video Shaun even with what you consider “rambling” haha the unknown is scary but you’ve gotta take it one step at a time as I’m sure you already know given how far you’ve come already! Keep pushing; you’ve got the support of everyone here behind you 🙏🏼💪🏼

    Hey, that uncertainity is understandable after a physically and mentally taxing 10 year investment of time/energy and resources. Thank you, so much for sharing your experience. It means lot for many who find themselves in a similar situation. You are on track and trust that your path is opening up before you. You have done all the work. Happy Holidays! Thanks again!

    I remember following you when you started med school, i think i was at the beginning of high school when i really wanted to go to med school and become a doctor myself and your videos definitely inspired me along with some other med student TH-camrs. Fast forward 4 years and i am a college student who is set on going to PA school instead and becoming a PA. Once I learned about the profession, it seemed to fit a lot more with what I’d want to do, but the whole reason I got into medicine in the first place was because of you and other TH-camrs who were going through medical school and sharing your passion. I’m really happy for you and I wish you a lot of luck with residencies, I can’t believe it’s been 4 years since I started following your journey :)

    Love the video and the transparancy. I can relate so much as I too am (1) sitting at 7 categorical Interviews for Gen Surg (and the dealing with the struggles of comparison with peers) and (2) finally getting back in the gym and enjoying being more healthy. Wishing you the best with The Match!

    Just finished the video and per usual, I immensely enjoyed your “ramble fest” lol.
    Just as you said you have a passion for the course you’re soft launching and you are enjoying seeing it come to fruition; I see the passion you have for medicine and anesthesia. You may not be able to see it now, but I’m going to speak it into existence that Match Day will go as you want it to and you will see all of your hard work come to fruition on May 3rd.
    Take care of yourself, and thank you for these videos.

    Also applying this year and I agree about the signals and how hard it is to navigate. For my school the average number of interview invites for anesthesia this year is 8.8 (we do surveys every 2 weeks) So I don’t think you’re far off! Keep pushing

    I started nursing school when you started medical school, and found myself super interested in the comparisons between them. And now a year out, working as a ICU Nurse, i wanna head back to grad school and become a CRNA. So anesthesia is where its at! Its been cool seeing your journey, and I hope you have a great match! Maybe I'll catch you in the OR one day!

    The stress involved with becoming a doctor in the USA seems insane! 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of medical school, and then 5-7 years of residency 🙀. I don’t get why the pipeline is so long compared to other countries. In the UK and India you can start medical school after high school and then go to residency. Not sure why they make it longer and make you go into more debt here in the states 🤔😩. But Gratz to you man way to stick it out. Super impressive!

      GABBY CARMONA is a LAZY manager that does not put enough effort in her job! she is very RACIST towards BLACK PEOPLE. she consistently has a NASTY attitude towards her staff members. The old owner would give her SPECIAL PRIVILEGES such has clocking in late and using her PHONE on the clock.
      There was a time that GABBY CARMONA waS about to be fired because the whole staff agreed on what i said. "Jenny Gonzales and
      ADAM MARTINEZ was our old managers that experienced these issues about GABBY CARMONA. Jenny Cid and Jacqueline Quezada and Alexandra Cruz are the three managers that were to afraid to say anything about this issue.
      Personally it was not a pleasure meeting her or her TWO CHILDREN. GABBY CARMONA made me feel uncomfortable. She would talk about getting her Breast Done and Getting her TUBES TIDE.
