- I had 0 pubs. 0 research experience when I applied to #CVSurgery. @MacCVSx took a chance on me. We don't believe research experience makes a good applicant. We can teach you if you're interested. We just want someone passionate, hard working and a good person.The research arms race for U.S. medical students The average *unmatched* applicant in 2020 had more abstracts, presentations, and publications than the average *matched* applicant did in 2009. (Data from @TheNRMP Charting Outcomes in the Match)
