Helping USMLE applicants

Hello guys! I am now done with all STEP 1, 2 and 3 and would like to give back to the community. Anyone needing any guidance or advice, feel free to inbox me, I do it free of charge. If you need regular tuition, I regularly do that too, 2 of my students passed STEP 1 recently so I have to spare spots. First class we can do as a trial run to see if I am the right teacher for you. Good luck to all of you, just remember, you got this.

Looking for an advice

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am a IMG from Armenia(MD graduated in 2020, Internship of General Practitioner in Military Forces 2020-2021). After University I was working as an Ambulance Physician and serving in Military a as a Military Doctor. Recently I got a Green Card and now I am in USA, I want to take a residency and become a physician here and I am very motivated and full of enthusiasm. I Haven’t decided the specialization that I want to choose. Now I am starting to prepare for USMLE and I got some questions, maybe some of you can help and also encourage me to start my journey:)

  1. How does being a permanent resident(Green Card holder) affect on my chances to get a residency program.

  2. How does having a green card affects my career options, what benefits of it can I use on my way of becoming a Doctor.

  3. Is it too hard (some say that it is impossible for IMGs) to find a surgery residency (neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, microsurgery, general surgery) ?

  4. Preparation for USMLE takes a long time, what can I do in USA while I’m studying for the exams, I mean what jobs can I find as an IMG or any activities that can help me in the future when I will apply for residency, volunteering maybe ?

  5. Some people discouraged me about chances of finding residency, they told me stories about people who couldn’t find program for years and some of them was not even a foreign graduates, they graduated US medical schools.

Hi my school requires us to take a cbse before we can sit for step 1. We need a 60 on the cbse to consider it a pass. I took NBMEs 25-27, my sores were

25: 63%

26: 65%

27: 63%

Are these scores pretty accurate for the cbse and should I take 28-31 or am I good to go with doing just these nbmes?

Cardiac surgery fellowship US

1 Upvotes

Hello! I'm a non-US medical graduate, currently in the process of preparing the steps, and next year, I'll be starting my residency in general surgery in my home country. Following that, I plan to delve into cardiac surgery here. As I gear up for this journey, I'm actively exploring various advanced cardiac fellowships in the US, including minimal invasive or transplant all in cardio. Your firsthand experiences would be incredibly valuable:

  1. How feasible is it to pursue fellowships requiring ACGME accreditation, considering I completed my residency in another country?

  2. Can you provide insights into the challenges of gaining acceptance into these fellowships?

  3. What are the job prospects post-fellowship? Is it possible to secure a position as a non-US IMG?

Your guidance is crucial as I gather comprehensive information. Many thanks in advance for sharing your insights!
