Candidates who did not match in December, how are you doing guys?

Title says it all.

I did not match to hem/onc from the last cycle and it was quite devastating. I think I expected to match with 8 interviews. But alas, it did not happen. I was looking for a waiver position, but at this time, there was a very scarce number of decent waiver positions (eg. academic hospitalist), I decided to do 1-year fellowship at the named program. And then planning on doing a wavier, followed by re-applying hem/onc so I can build my CV more solid and connection better.

But still, sometime, I go back to the time when I checked the result from NRMP. It is still traumatic.

Anyway, how are you doing guys? What have you decided to do next?

Let's give some pick-up each other.
