I'm a US-IMG, better than average board scores and great LORs, did not match this year.
Will apply psychiatry this upcoming year. I have a unique background, with a few year of acting under my belt after college. Fun times, the experience imparted me with visceral insight to the fragility of the human mind and how mental illness were expressed in great playwrights.
I will be working full time at a healthcare technology company this year, but want to show my dedication to psychiatry in my spare time. My interests are in cognitive behavioral psychiatry or clinical pharmacology. Any advice is appreciated.
