In this video, we'll go over the official statistics and explore which are the most

在這段視頻中，我們將通過官方的統計數據，探討哪些是最

competitive and desired specialties.

有競爭力的和理想的專業。

What's going on guys, Dr. Jubbal, MedSchoolInsiders.com.

這是怎麼回事夥計們，朱波醫生，醫學流派內幕網。

For those of you who don't know, I graduated medical school in 2017 and matched into plastic

不知道的人，我2017年畢業於醫學院，配成了整形的

手術。

There's a tremendous amount of misinformation regarding which medical specialties are competitive.

關於哪些醫學專業競爭激烈，存在著巨大的誤區。

Everyone wants to say their specialty is competitive - and they're not wrong.

每個人都想說自己的專業有競爭力--他們沒有錯。

Getting into any residency is a challenging ordeal.

進入任何一個住院部都是一個充滿挑戰的考驗。

That being said, some specialties are more competitive and harder to get into than others.

也就是說，有些專業比其他專業競爭更激烈，更難考上。

I understand the pride involved, but whether or not your specialty is considered competitive

我理解其中的自豪感，但你的專業是否算得上是競爭性的專業

does not make you a good or bad doctor.

並不能讓你成為一個好醫生或壞醫生。

It simply says which specialties

它只是簡單地說了一下，哪些專業

are hardest to get into.

是最難進入的。

And knowing which specialties are hardest to get into can be very useful information

而瞭解哪些專業最難考，是非常有用的資訊

for pre-meds and medical students.

醫學預科生和醫學生；

Again, all specialties are competitive, and if your specialty is ranked lower than you would

同樣，所有的專業都是有競爭力的，如果你的專業排名比你低，你會

like, that's not a judgement or an attack on you in any way.

喜歡，這不是一個判斷或攻擊你以任何方式。

This is simply the data.

這只是數據。

Period.

期間。

You can find links to the data in the description.

你可以在描述中找到數據的鏈接。

First, let's cover the methodologies that I used.

首先，我們來介紹一下我使用的方法論。

I gathered all data from the official source - the NRMP, or the National Resident Matching

我收集的所有數據都來自於官方來源--NRMP，或者說是全國居民匹配。

Program, over the last few years.

程，在過去幾年中。

I manually inputted all data into a spreadsheet that I've linked to in the description for

我手動將所有數據輸入到一個電子表格中，我已經在描述中鏈接到了這個表格。

you to view.

您可以查看。

There's always someone complaining about imperfect methodologies – look, every analysis

總有人抱怨方法論不完善--你看，每次分析

has its limitations.

有其侷限性。

I urge you to view the spreadsheet and play with the data to see for yourself.

我懇請你查看電子表格，並玩弄數據，親自看看。

Before we dive in, it's important to note that ophthalmology and urology are not included

在我們深入瞭解之前，需要注意的是，眼科和泌尿科不在其中

in the regular match, and therefore their data was not included in this analysis.

在常規比賽中，是以他們的數據不包括在本分析中。

That being said, if you look up their average Step scores and match rates, it's clear

也就是說，如果你查一下他們的平均Step分數和匹配率，就會發現

neither would have been in the top 5 anyway.

反正都不會在前5名。

I used data for U.S. applicants only, as incorporating international medical graduates, or IMGs,

我只用了美國申請人的數據，因為納入了國際醫學畢業生，或IMG。

would muddy the analysis.

會使分析變得模糊不清。

I looked beyond just the match rate, as that would be a terribly inaccurate marker of competitiveness.

我看的不僅僅是匹配率，因為這將是一個非常不準確的競爭力標誌。

And now you're probably confused.

而現在你可能會感到困惑。

If it has a low match rate, then it must be more competitive, right?

如果它的匹配率很低，那麼它的競爭力一定比較強吧？

Well, not exactly.

嗯，不完全是。

Specialties are self-selecting to a certain degree.

專業在一定程度上是自選的。

I recently saw a video by someone who went only off of match rates, and in doing so,

我最近看到一個視頻，有人只靠匹配率，這樣做。

they suggested that general surgery and psychiatry were the third most competitive specialties.

他們提出，普通外科和精神病學是第三大競爭性專業。

Anyone who is in medical school or residency will tell you that's certainly not the case.

任何一個在醫學院或住院醫生的人都會告訴你，情況肯定不是這樣。

For example, in plastic surgery, applicants use general surgery as their backup in case

例如，在整形外科，求美者將普通外科作為自己的後備力量，以防萬一。

they don't get into plastics.

他們不進入塑膠。

Look at it this way - if you're not a competitive applicant, you're not going to apply to

這樣看--如果你不是一個有競爭力的申請者，你就不會去申請。

something like plastic surgery or neurosurgery or dermatology.

像整形外科或神經外科或皮膚科。

But lots of people want to do surgery, since surgery is freakin awesome, and general surgery is

但很多人都想做手術，因為手術是畸形的厲害，而普通手術則是

the most commonly applied to.

最常見的應用於：

General surgery is an excellent field, it's tremendously broad, extremely diverse, leaves options open to subspecialize

普通外科是一個很好的領域，它的範圍非常廣，非常多樣化，為亞專業留下了選擇的餘地。

after, and it's also the least competitive of the surgical specialties.

後，也是競爭最不激烈的外科專業。

Therefore it has a very high number of applicants and a low match rate.

是以它的報考人數非常多，匹配率很低。

This is not a judgement against general surgery in any way.

這絕不是對普通外科的評判。

This is just an explanation for the low match rate in general surgery.

這只是對普通手術匹配率低的一個解釋。

In order to overcome the shortcomings of looking at match rate alone, I examined six categories

為了克服單純看匹配率的缺點，我考察了六類人群

of data: average match rate, Step 1 score, Step 2CK score, number of publications, percentage

的數據：平均匹配率、步驟1得分、步驟2CK得分、出版品數量、百分比。

of matriculants that were AOA, and percentage of applicants from a top 40 NIH funded medical

AOA的預科生的比例，以及來自美國國立衛生研究院資助的前40名醫療機構的申請人的比例。

school.

學校：

AOA, or the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society, is an honor society in medicine – what

AOA，即阿爾法歐米茄阿爾法榮譽醫學會，是醫學界的一個榮譽社團--何為

you need to know for the purposes of this analysis is that being AOA is a good indicator

你需要知道的是，為了這個分析的目的，作為AOA是一個很好的指標。

of being a high performing student.

的是一個成績優異的學生。

Obviously it's not perfect, as some schools don't have it.

顯然，它並不完美，因為有些學校沒有。

For example, mine didn't, and therefore I wasn't AOA, despite being at the top of

例如，我的就沒有，是以我不是AOA，儘管我的排名在最前面。

my class.

我的班級。

Top 40 NIH funded medical schools are usually more competitive, meaning students that got

美國國立衛生研究院資助的前40所醫學院通常競爭比較激烈，這意味著得到

into these schools were, on average, stronger students.

進入這些學校的學生，平均來說，都是比較強壯的學生。

Emphasis on average.

強調平均。

After compiling the data, I ranked each specialty in each of the six categories.

整理完數據後，我對六大類中的每個專業進行了排名。

This was a point-based ranking system.

這是一個基於積分的排名系統。

Each category was weighed equally and points were awarded directly in relation to the ranking.

每個類別的權重相同，分數直接與排名掛鉤。

Meaning, there are 22 specialties, and the lowest ranking in that category would receive

意思是說，有22個專業，在該類專業中排名最低的將獲得

1 point and the top ranking in that category would receive 22 points.

1分，該類別排名靠前者將獲得22分。

I summed up the points across each category and looked at the total points to determine

我把每個類別的分數加起來，看總分來確定。

which specialties were most competitive.

哪些專業最有競爭力。

Now's your chanc e to hedge your bets.

現在是你對沖的機會了。

Dermatology came in first, trailed closely by plastic surgery in second.

皮膚科排名第一，緊隨其後的是整形外科，排名第二。

Neurosurgery was third, followed by orthopedic surgery fourth and then ENT in fifth.

神經外科排名第三，其次是骨科第四，然後是耳鼻喉科排名第五。

And honestly, I'm not surprised by these results - and

說實話，我對這些結果並不感到驚訝--------。

that's a good sign.

這是一個好兆頭。

If you're a medical student or a resident, you probably aren't surprised either.

如果你是一名醫學生或住院醫師，你可能也不會感到驚訝。

But many people have heard of this ROAD to success – ROAD stands for Radiology, Ophthalmology,

但很多人都聽說過這個通往成功的ROAD--ROAD代表著放射科、眼科。

Anesthesiology, and Dermatology.

麻醉科和皮膚科。

If you're surprised that the other three ROAD specialties aren't included in the

如果你驚訝於其他三個ROAD專業不包括在其中。

top 5, don't be.

前五名，不要。

Radiology, Ophtho, and Anesthesia are not nearly as competitive as the top 5.

放射科、眼耳鼻喉科、麻醉科的競爭力不如前五名。

ROAD specialties indicate those that have a great lifestyle - NOT necessarily those which

道路專業表示那些有一個偉大的生活方式 - 不一定那些

are the most competitive.

是最具競爭力的。

An interesting pattern I noticed was that the top 5 were all very well paying specialties.

我注意到一個有趣的規律是，前5名都是收入很高的專業。

Neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery are almost always the top 2 best paid specialties, regardless

神經外科和骨科幾乎都是收入最高的2個專業，無論

of the survey.

的調查。

Plastic surgery is also up there, but it's important to note that cosmetic practices

整形手術也在上面，但需要注意的是，美容術

make much more than reconstructive practices.

使遠比重建實踐。

Dermatologists don't make as much as the other top 4 specialties, all of which are

皮膚科醫生的收入不如其他4大專業，都是

surgical, and that makes sense - surgeons put in more work and do more challenging procedures,

手術，這是有道理的--外科醫生投入更多的工作，做更多有挑戰性的手術。

but dermatologists have an excellent lifestyle that's hard to beat.

但皮膚科醫生的生活方式很好，這是很難得的。

So the conclusion of all this?

所以這一切的結論是什麼？

It's quite clear that the most competitive specialties are highly correlated with either

很明顯，競爭最激烈的專業與以下兩種情況高度相關。

excellent pay or excellent lifestyle.

優秀的薪酬或優秀的生活方式。

Correlation is not causation, but I think it's safe to say that there's more than

相關性不是因果關係，但我認為可以肯定的是，這裡面有更多的東西

simple correlation going on here.

簡單的相關性在這裡。

Exploring this finding further is a topic for another video.

進一步探索這一發現是另一個視頻的主題。

Was this analysis perfect?

這個分析是否完美？

Absolutely not – but then again, every analysis has limitations.

絕對不是--但話說回來，每一種分析都有侷限性。

That being said, this is the most comprehensive one I've seen.

說起來，這是我見過的最全面的一個。

So what do you think of the results?

那麼你覺得結果如何呢？

Are you surprised, or is this what you were expecting?

你是驚訝，還是這是你所期待的？
