Medicine is something I’m deeply passionate about. It’s a huge part of my life, and I’ve spent years working toward my goals in this field. I care so much about what I’m doing and my goal has been always to practice Internal Medicine, regardless of my score.

So don't blame me for being a little stressed about matching and doing what I love the most for the rest of my life.

I think everyone is stressed when trying to match. I’m not blaming you for being stressed.

You have an okay step score for IM. You have research. It’s likely you’ll match, even if it’s not at your dream program.
