I was devastated on Friday to open up my match results and see I ranked at my 13th of 18 ranks for DR. I go to a low-tier MD school but had an overall excellent app and I do not know how this happened. To give you context for how bad my program is, my PD reached out and basically asked how I ended up there. A chief resident texted me later and told me he understood if this wasn't my first pick but congrats. This was all unprompted, I never indicated to them I was unhappy. It's an academic program but really a private practice group with no prestige/pedigree, minimal research, etc.
My goal is PP, but I would like to end up in a major city for the sake of my wife/kids. I feel like a total and complete failure ending up here and like I just destined myself to undesirable jobs because my program is so unimpressive.
