U Iowa Hospitals & Clinics

Everytime I am feeling down about this process, I look up jobs posted recently and it gives me the boost to keep going lol< lmfao are you me? I do that too haha < looool me too! just saw a gig in iowa for 750k, i can definitely do this stress for that kinda $ for my efforts lol < the caveat is that that kind of number is usually from less desired locations. The median number for newly graduated attending in the private practice is around 300-400k, in the academic hospital mid 200k to early 300k (definitely MGH/PENN is exceptional) < fair but i mean, less desirable is relative. The entire midwest is probably considered less desirable by most people but places like st louis are fine for me. why anyone will live in NY and Cali for like 30-40% less pay in addition to the insane cost of living is beyond me < let them chase that prestige & sardine box lifestyle. More for the rest of us.<midwest is best coast

No II from Iowa, but why isn't it talked or thought of as a top program based off its doximity rankings?

anyone hear back from iowa about date?

does the Iowa email mean we EMAIL them on 12/2 at that time?

Indiana vs Iowa vs Cleveland Clinic? these midwest programs sound the same just location...

for anyone considering ranking Univ of Iowa high up for prelim, just saw this on prelim/TY page: "current prelim at Iowa, do not recommend--painfully exhausting, no time for research, even the electives are brutal and tiring. Highly suggest trying a different place, I feel like I didn't learn as much as I could have and was instead just tired for a full year"

anyone else feel like chief resident at iowa interviews was a bit mean?

So Iowa was actually amazing. What a solid program.

Anyone who's interviewing at Iowa this Wednesday get an interview schedule yet?

Thoughts on Iowa as far as the strengths weaknesses?< great surgical training?

Iowa trickle! <congratulations OP!!! x3

Iowa swap anyone?? new available date for Jan 15th :)

If anyone has Iowa Dec 16 and is able to switch to Jan 15 please let me know! Would be a HUGE help

Iowa II x3

Anyone else srsly not feel like doing these secondaries? I already plan on not doing Brown's and I haven't submitted VCU or Iowa yet .. if I knew things would be like this I wouldn't have applied..<same, I did the first 10 or so and now I don't have the energy to deal with this right now
