1/ This is coming later than most #BlackintheIvory stories, as I was trying to submit an @NIH grant on time. I did not - submit it on time - but I submitted it. But, now, I would like to tell a story I have been sitting on for 15 years. It was my 1st #nsgy interview #OkSoBoom
2/ I was at a good medical school, Penn Med, was president of the med student government, good clerkship scores, but not AOA - felt good about interviewing, overall. But it was early October, and it was my only interview offer at the time, so I was nervous
3/ I started off with a pretty routine interview. Went great, actually! We chatted about my research, my time at Penn, stuff I might be able to accomplish at this department if I matched. I felt really good at the time - this is actually happening! I'll be a neurosurgeon!
