I haven’t yet had time to update, but Match Day was last Friday, and…I MATCHED! I remember writing the first ever blogpost on this site last year after Match Day, when I felt so envious of my classmates who knew what they were destined to do. And now, finally, I get to say that I will be a dermatologist!

Wow! congrats! Still a long way to go for me. I have to get into medical school first hah. Is match day really as fun as it looks in your post??

Match Day is a whirlwind of emotions; there is a lot of build up of anxiety leading up to the day culminating in (hopefully) relief and happiness after you open that envelope. Stanford does a great job at making the day into a celebration of our achievements, with a Match Day ceremony and a nice dinner reception sponsored by the Stanford Medical School Alumni Association. You have a lot to look forward to!

Yay, a very belated congratulations! I am so looking forward to this day. In fact, wouldn’t mind if we just fast forwarded to this part 😉 Also, I love your dress!
Joyce says
Thanks Petiteish! It was such an insanely nerve wracking week leading up to it (if I ever meet you in person I’ll tell you about it! It had to do with the blogpost I wrote earlier that week on the NRMP being “hacked”) but match day itself was so lovely. It’ll make all the years of med school worth it!

Random question – I love your white dress and have been looking for a similar one all summer. Do you mind sharing what brand the one you’re wearing is? Thanks!
Joyce says
Hey! My dress is from Aritzia and it is the Babaton Bennett dress. It also comes in a sleeveless version here, which happens to be on sale right now. Hope this helps!
