The Match algorithm is based off of a publicly known algorithm for a similar problem. A man in 2015 made his own version of the Match algorithm and simulated the entire 2014 Match process. His algorithm took approximately 17 seconds to match over 37,500 medical students to residency.

@@manaspradhan8041 17 seconds doesn't sound bad... There are a lot of conditions it has to check. I'm no doctor, but I do code. It would have to lookup doctor's speciality, search for a hospital with the speciality, fill that slot with a person. When multiple could match for the same slot, I think some would probably be given priority over others. Probably a few more factors to take into account so 17 seconds for 37.5k students allotment doesn't sound too long. 2 weeks might be the beauracracy catching up perhaps

Actually it's been "somewhat" publicly known that the match itself takes less than a few min for the code to run, but the rest of 2 weeks involves a lot of manual communication between the match and the programs to verify there's no mistake being made (such as accidentally not have enough people or not having enough spots for new residents, and accreditation, and what not). So it's not the "match" itself that takes 2 weeks, it is the verification with all programs in the country.

Hey Dr. Glauc, kinda random but wanted to tell you about this. I've seen my general doctor weekly for the past year + a half due to struggles in the mental health system & needing a weekly support in which I'm very grateful to have a doctor who cares enough to deal with me so often. We tend to spend most of these appointments rambling on about random things we both find interesting, and we happen to both be regular watchers of your content (as well as other medicine comedians, but you're the fav) so we talk about you quite often! Living in a small city in Australia, it surprises but joys me that so many medical practitioners that I've met watch your content as well as just random people - I think it's amazing that medical knowledge from a good source is being spread to so many people in a lighthearted way. You are one of the reasons I've gained an interest in medicine that may lead to me doing it in the future which gives me a little hope in myself to stay alive 💗

And if you settle on medical school, pursue it, and don't leave your humanity behind.

@@elizabethdiaz5475 4th year med students interview at each institution they'd like to train at, there is some selection here as you don't get an interview everywhere you list. The institutions are trying to woo the top students during this time. The actual rank matching algorithm gives preference to the future residents. If you rank Cleveland Clinic 1st but they only rank you 40th the 39 people ahead of you have to match before you can match there. But let's say your second choice Mayo Clinic ranked you 1st. If you miss matching at the Cleveland clinic you end up at Mayo. If you do match at Cleveland clinic you go and Mayo moves down it's list. It can happen that an institution exhausts it's list of applicants and has empty slots. If someone doesn't match then there is a scramble for those slots. But people are pretty demoralized by that.

I’m am almost certain standardized testing scores are delayed intentionally. MCAT scores are delayed for like 4-8 weeks whereas DAT scores (the dental equivalent) arrive instantly. It’s all automated, they could at least give us the raw numerical score. The reason they don’t is that medical students generally apply to a larger amount of schools while they are unsure what their scores will be, and pay significantly more money to do so. Hmm it almost makes me wonder if it’s same company that is in charge of both the MCAT and the primary applications for medical school? 🤔 Certainly they wouldn’t dare to have a financial conflict of interest, wouldn’t they? 😂
