So Did I End Up Matching?? This Is What Happened.. (The Match | NRMP 2021 | Med School & Residency)

[@carmeloanthony5923]

Dude you're my favorite med school youtube by far, and the fact that you have less than 3k subscribers is actually ridiculous, but a testament to you not doing all the click baity shiz everyone else is doing. Anyway man, been following your SGU vids from the start, the OG subscribers know you're a genuine dude and you're going to be a great doctor bro! All the best from another California subscriber!

Hey Rozy, thank you so much. yeah its fine though, i really like having a close group of people who support me and all my videos, makes me feel safe on here anyways. thanks for the support, nice to see a new name on here

Hey man, congratulations! You’re going to be a doctor! While this may not have been your plan, everything works out for a reason.

[@SeanDarmal]

AYYYEE, yes exactly man, everything happens for a reason brother. thank you for the support! exactly, I made it at the end of the day, against all odds

[@fahadawan1650]

Hey Sean! You were a fellow interviewee for one of my psych interviews and in our short interaction I was impressed by how personable you were. Glad I stumbled upon your youtube page. Quite frankly, I'm shocked psych didn't work out but I'm confident you're destined for big things. I admire your positive attitude.

[@fahadawan1650]

And Congrats on IM! SOAP was crazy this year. Big accomplishment. Have you considered an addiction medicine fellowship down the line? IM/psych cross paths at that point.

[@SeanDarmal]

FAHAD! How are you doing, no way man, that is so cool, thank you for checking out the videos. Yeah, I was surprised but it is okay, everything happens for a reason, and if it was meant to be I will find my way back to psych. I have definitely thought about addiction medicine, it has been something I considered heavily. So we will see what the future holds. I appreciate you dropping by to say hi. Wish you all the best with residency, I hope you got the spot you wanted most :)

[@ataliacohen2154]

I admire your positive outlook on not getting into psychiatry, and understanding that you'll love what you do no matter what. Internal Medicine is great, and getting matched in Las Vegas just makes it that much better! As you said, you were a good applicant, and gave it your all, so I am glad you're not beating yourself up about it. Proud of you!

[@IAMCHIDERA]

The positivity is contagious ☺️

[@junebug8241]

Congrats on matching Sean, even if this isn't the speciality you originally wanted it will all work out for the best for you! You have such a positive outlook on things and I can definitely tell you'll be an awesome doctor! If you don't mind, could you do a video on your overall experience at SGU looking back and things you did that helped or things you wish you had done, etc? Tips for future/current students. Maybe even include some of your friends from SGU if possible about their experience as well with a Q/A session? It would mean a lot!

[@SeanDarmal]

Junebug, I love the suggestion! thank you so much, i have something similar in mind, so lets see if it will work. thank you again, and thanks for the support

[@s96822]

I did my residency 30 years ago. We used to call those unfilled spot interviews "warm body interviews" If you have pulse and blood pressure you are good to go.

[@SeanDarmal]

Hahaha this is genius. Exactly what it felt like today. Good to know Nothings changed. 😂

[@s96822]

@@SeanDarmal I will never forget during my PGY2 year got a call from a PD asking me if I still wanted a PGY1 spot. I told him as much as I cherished that year of no sleep servitude I think I will repeat it in the next lifetime. He was cracking up. We did not have work hour rules then (NYC big bad hospitals) You can always look for a psych spot during IM as you are always a stronger candidate while in any program. I had friends that could not initially get OB, EM, etc but after 1 or 2 years of IM got accepted.

[@SeanDarmal]

@@s96822 oh god. I would’ve probably replied with the same thing 😂😂😂. Thank you so much for the advice. I had that feeling I could become a little more competitive after a year of residency under my belt. But then I actually started to really like IM. But I will always keep that in mind. Thanks for the advice. I can’t complain, we have it so easy compared to your experiences.

[@michaelrey2159]

Sean, thank you for your humor and complete transparency regarding these topics. You definitely rock and are my #1 med KZbinr! As someone who is applying to SGU and has wanted to become a psychiatrist all my life, my biggest fear would of course not being able to match into the specialty I have long had a burning passion for. I’ve even published a book that dealt heavily with psychiatry as the focal theme. I know the match process for me is way down the line, but worrying about these things enables me to do more research and gain more insight from those who have weathered the rigor. I wager that internal medicine would be my back up specialty as much as I can’t see myself practicing anything else. Unfortunately, for IMGs, these are real obstacles. That being said, how could one incorporate an emphasis on the treatment of psychiatric disorders within internal medicine? I do not see anything psych-related as far as sub-specialties. Any thing you might be able to shed some light on and maybe even ward off some anxiety is greatly appreciated!

[@SeanDarmal]

Hey bud. Yeah I totally hear you. Yeah when you’re actually practicing you have a lot of free range. Up to your discretion of how much you want to treat psych disorders. It’s not like you can bill insurance for psychotherapy or anything. But you would be surprised how much you see in a generic field like IM. Also you can choose to work in outpatient psych offices or inpatient psych. They work hand in hand with IM docs too. So it’s what you make of it. Jah feel? Thanks for the nice message homie

[@operationleon]

So happy for you Sean!! Echoing everyone else's comments but your transparency and positivity is so refreshing. I'm a US med student, first gen with no one really to give me advice on what to do as I progress. In just a few vids I've learned a lot about the match process from you. Big thanks!

Hey congrats on matching! I just wanted to put this out there that family medicine/internal medicine doctors prescribe more psychiatric medications for anxiety and depression than psychiatrists do. As a family/internal medicine you might be able to help more of the people in the general population than as a psychiatrist. Everything happens for a reason. Maybe you will find internal medicine more satisfying. Since psychiatry is getting so competitive, it might become overrated. Who knows haha.

Hey man, thanks so much for sharing this info. Went through something similar and will be talking about it on my channel in the future, the match is all messed up and the beauty of all of these fields and mental health is the flexibility to pursue those root interests anywhere. But the stigma against going unmatched or not getting into your first choice discipline is wild and with the spread of competitiveness in psych, it sucks for us. Did you ever think about doing an additional year or a transitional year? Would love to talk further, all the best man proud of you sharing this story and for sticking-and-moving so successfully. All the best.

[@Psychiatube]

@@SeanDarmal Hundred percent, and I think that attitude is the best thing - you'll be able to lend that compassionate, empathetic, and humble demeanour to really provide better and DIFFERENT care compared to your stereotypical IM puzzle-solver (generalizing of course, no offense to the IM homies). I think it's incredibly important KZbinrs like you (and me one day hopefully) talk about these "embarrassing" times or pitfalls in the schooling process. The culture is pretty toxic with self-aggrandizing and flexing to justify the sacrifices, so others going through this don't have too many real testimonials from people who go through it. I'm positive you've got the charisma, personality, and work ethic to really go far in a lot of different ways - this side hustle is just one example. Good luck brother you'll do great things, and hopefully we can collab one day waay down the line!

Hey Sean, term 2 student at SGU here. I have enjoyed your videos and wanted to congratulate you on your way to residency! Also, (if you have time ofc!) is it possible to make a video on core clinical rotations during 3rd year? Just your experiences and thoughts. My worries about Step 1 has shifted to clinical rotations and Step 2 as Step 1 will be Pass/Fail. Thank you and congratulations again!!

[@SeanDarmal]

Congratulations my man! You matched at a good place too! You can do much worse than internal med @ LV.

[@SeanDarmal]

I was over the moon when I saw the offer from NV come in. I completely agree. Lets gooo brother

[@Harry-m9b]

everything happens for a reason!

[@SeanDarmal]

Exactly brother 👏🏽

Is there a psych-based fellowship you could do after internal? That could actually be a cool combo. I know there are a lot of fellowships, just don't know about psych-basedones.

[@SeanDarmal]

there is addiction medicine which is probably the closest i could get to it. maybe even geriatrics too

[@KaitAC]

@@SeanDarmal it's kind of strange there isn't some type of psych fellowship; it would be so helpful for family med. My husband and I have been living with his grandmother for the duration of the pandemic to help her; before this I was considering geriatrics, now I am not lol. I laugh but I'm actually not joking, I really don't think I could do it.

[@Nick-bt2kr]

I teared up watching this. Congrats! I’m so glad everything worked out just fine. Do you see yourself switching?

[@SeanDarmal]

awww thank you so much for your support, i am really glad everything worked out too. If it is meant to be, i will find my way back to psych at the end of the day. but I will keep an open mind

[@jasminesilva2338]

Congrats huge accomplishment! I am a T4 currently living in Vegas! HMU if you need any advice or help navigating around Vegas, always nice to see a fellow SGU student succeed!

[@SeanDarmal]

Thank you so much Jasmine!! I will definitely let you know. good luck, term 4 is a tough one

[@gooddev506]

When did you apply for Match? in your last year of medical school or after you finish medical school?

[@murraysolomon4924]

After completing 2-3 years of IM you will be able to get a psychiatry residency. Of the 1000 students that started in the first semester of your class, how many made it all the way thru?
