ROANOKE, Va. - <\/p>\n
If high drama is your kind of thing, the Virginia Tech-Carilion Medical School was the place to be. Friday, fourth-year medical students found out which residencies they've been selected for across the country. <\/p>\n
The day is circled on everyone's calender: Match Day. <\/p>\n
If medical school doesn't sound grueling enough, the wait from Monday to today sure is. <\/p>\n
\"At the first of the week, when they find out do they match with a position, and they did. And at exactly 12 o'clock, every place in the country, everybody finds out where they matched,\" said Dean Cynda Johnson. <\/p>\n
\"It's definitely a stressful process,\" student Carlie Blake said. <\/p>\n
\"Today is the culmination of four years of really hard work,\" Rohini Mehta added. <\/p>\n
All these students have spent the past couple months picking a specialty and interviewing at the places across the country to practice them. <\/p>\n
In a private ceremony, the students got those envelopes. <\/p>\n
Dean Cynda Johnson says the sheer joy on their faces tells you everything you need to know. <\/p>\n
