Med School Minutes- Ep. 36- Residency for Canadians

Welcome to another episode of the Med School Minutes Podcast. In this episode, we discuss the best options for Canadian students to obtain residency in Canada and the United States. One of our guests, Dr. Sareen, talks about her experience as a Canadian during the Match process and how she secured 24 residency interviews this year. Another guest, Fearghus Macdonald, gives his point of view on education in SJSM and how he views his future career as a doctor of medicine (either in the United States or Canada).
