I feel so lucky that I was able to record my live reaction to my first acceptance to medical school (UNC School of Medicine). I was so close to not recording it because I was certain it would be a rejection. I expected to receive a phone call with good news and an email with bad news, so an email at 6:17 am did not give me a good gut feeling.
This was a moment I was waiting for and would think about every night as I lost sleep. I cannot express the true gratitude I feel for this moment that completed changed my life.
Check out the rest of my channel if you want to see more about my premed journey and my advice on applying to medical school.
Note: For those that are new here, I'm not a doctor (yet). I'm currently a first year medical student at Duke University.

I got shivers. Somehow this is insanely happy and sad at the same time.

Thanks, I appreciate that. Yeah, the exams have barely just begun, but at least Step 1 is pass/fail so I get a few years "break."

Probably there's 20,000 residents x 4 years of residency years right now and each physician is making x $50,000 during residency. Seems like the US government has $4,000,000,000 (trillion) to give away every year to physicians who are in residency. Imagine these residents graduate, and how much money they will make per year. AT LEAST 3 times that much! $150,000 a year! Is that true?

Here is a link to some information about how the US Government gives out money to schools for both Direct and Indirect graduate medical education expenses. The total cost of these together is about $10,000,000,000 per year. There are actually about 140,000 medical residents. So $10 Billion/ 140,000 is about $70,000 per resident per year. Medicare only covers part of the total direct and indirect costs of medical education. fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/IF10960.pdf I'm not sure what you are asking "Is that true?" to. It's not true that the government has trillions of dollars to give away to residents. It is about $10 billion. It is true that physicians can make $150,000 in the U.S. In some specialties, the average can be >$500,000.
