The AnKing's video: How to Craft Your Narrative for Residency Applications

This is the 14th video in the Preparing For, Applying & Matching into Residency playlist. This video series was planned during my interview season and includes actual details from my application. This video discusses tips I have for all you first and second year medical students as you think about what activities and extracurriculars you want to pursue. This will help you put your activities into three "themes" in your application. This will make your application more rememberable and remarkable! # TABLE OF CONTENTS # 00:28 Intro 00:41 Three buckets 01:08 My first recommendation 01:52 My themes 02:31 Noteworthy characteristics 02:49 Theme Research 03:36 Theme Medical Education & Teaching 04:10 Theme Service & Global Health 05:00 Wrap up Downloadable files that are discussed in these videos: https://www.ankipalace.com/downloadable-content These will be released monthly throughout 2022.
