When a school charges nearly $60,000 per year in tuition and needs to establish a food pantry for medical students to survive, perhaps it’s time to closely examine how medical schools exploit students who are willing to do anything to pursue their dreams of becoming doctors.

@residencyreview Terrible advice. You are not competing against anyone and to view it that way is ridiculous. If a program likes you and ranks you highly you will match there. You could tell every single person applying that specialty and it would have no effect of you matching at that program.
