Who's excited for match 2011???

I am! I'm also one who just cemented my choice in urology. What about the notion of if you're not born knowing you want to do urology, it's not for you? That was offputting for a bit but Ive gotten over the naysayers

I had no idea either until I did a two week urology elective during my surgery rotation; all that matters is your desire, not the duration of it. I just matched this past January, it makes no difference to programs as long as you are sincere.  Anyone you tells you otherwise is just trying to discourage you.

Did I match.... What a great subject line to an email.

I'm pumped for 2011.  Really excited / nervous to get this whole ball rolling.

Quite excited!  Trying to set up away rotations right now and 4th year scheduling.  Hoping to get everything in the right timeline so it all works out!!
