Post Rank Stress

Now that our rank order lists for CaRMS are in you would expect the stress level in the class to decrease. It has not.

On the day the ROL was due, people were still flipping around their top three choices of programs. Some were even still deciding their top choice of specialty. It was a stressful afternoon. I was threatening to glue classmates' fingers to their bums so they couldn't change their choices again.

Some poor folks cried, others threw things, it just wasn't a good day for us.

Since then, we are trying to come up with as many things as we can think of to keep us busy at night to prevent us from losing our minds. It's hard to not second guess the choices we've made. How can we know that we've made the right choice?

13 days between submitting our ROL and finding out our results is cruel and unusual punishment.
