“Can I get a competitive residency?” is a question most medical students ask themselves at least once during their medical school tenure. This Saturday three strong female figures, Dr Tahreem Mir [MBBS, ’13], Dr Mahin Janjua [MBBS, ’18], and Dr Ayesha Quddusi [MBBS, ’17] came together to answer this very question. The advice they gave is invaluable and timeless. It allowed a glimpse into their own lives and helped solidify the belief that persistence, hard work, and a strong sense of self are imperative in achieving goals. Though academics are important, these role models also touched upon personal life, work-life balance, and dealing with stress in a healthy way such that it is conducive for mental well-being. A well-rounded session, it helped to bring together and compile all the essential information required to excel in respective medical sub-specialties. Geared towards giving guidance about competitive residency programs, this talk served as an important reminder that though the path may be daunting, the goals are still very much achievable.
