If you didn't match in the @ASGEendoscopy match please read my experience in this thread. I didn't get any advanced endoscopy positions when I applied in 2005. This isn't a thread of platitudes. It is a thread to exemplify how you can achieve your dreams despite setbacks.
This thread goes out to everyone who DIDN'T match in the ASGE match for advanced endoscopy fellowships. Guess who also didn't get an advanced endoscopy position when he applied back in 2005 - ME!! It was pre-match.... but I felt like crap when I got pan-rejected. #gitwitter
