More than 650 medical students, their families and friends did more than kick up their heels at John T. Floore\u2019s Country Store in Helotes on March 15 at Match Day. They jumped for joy, cried with relief and shouted with glee as each student opened an envelope and received a glimpse of the future.<\/p>\n

This year, 202 students, representing 98 percent of the Class of 2019 in the Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long School of Medicine, secured residency positions beginning July 1.<\/p>\n
