Hi everyone,
I am in a different kind of situation, seeing that I have the IMG stigma and all.
I would definitely appreciate the feedback of attendings, residents and anyone that knows how PRS candidate selection occurs.
So here goes:
Currently MS4 at a foreign institution.
Step1: 256
Step2: 268
Our grading system is Excellent (Honors equivalent), Good (High pass-like) and Pass: Honors in IM, Surg and Psych clinicals, Good in Obgyn and Peds.
Expecting like 4-5 publications in about a year's time. 3 of them first author. Most are in medical education.
Planning to take a year or two to do research in stem cells and regeneration.
Plan is to apply to PRS (or ENT) in the US, to end up in facial reconstruction/ transplants.
Working for an academic career in surgery.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
