Medical students discover residency fate on Match Day

Medical students across the US gathered on Match Day to open their sealed green envelopes and learn where they will be completing their residency program in the medical specialty of their choice. The National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) placed the students' and health systems' preferred destinations/residents into an algorithm to determine placements. This year's Match Day produced a record 42,952 applicants who certified a rank order list, with 40,375 certified positions to be filled. Residents will spend three to seven years training under attending physicians before becoming practicing physicians themselves.
