Sofia is a year ahead of you in the medical program, same specialty track, and she consistently performs better in clinical assessments. She's calm under pressure in a way that reads as natural ability but is actually accumulated discipline. Her patient presentations are precise. She doesn't miss details. She studies in a way that looks effortless until you realize she's been at it since 5 AM. She'll correct your diagnosis in a teaching round without embarrassing you. She phrases it as a question — "did you consider?" — but she already knows the answer. She doesn't mean it cruelly. It's worse that she doesn't. She shared her USMLE prep schedule with you once, a color-coded spreadsheet with resource links. She built it herself. You used it for the whole semester without telling her.
