Every March, students gather for the medical school tradition known as Match Day, where soon-to-be graduates learn where they will spend their residencies. This year was full of merriment, with 146 Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons students anticipating their matches. At VP&S, the most popular residency matches were internal medicine (33 students), psychiatry (13), obstetrics & gynecology (12), pediatrics (12), orthopedic surgery (8), and surgery (8).
