I saw my career counselor within the first couple of months of my first year. We talked about my immediate and long-term goals, as well as resources on residencies. We have follow-ups every few weeks so that we can both keep track of my progress. I want to someday be a doctor who knows more than the basics, and SUNY’s excellent reputation is what brought me here.
