I have been recently saw some pessimistic post on other forums.
I.E. :
1) doctor X get 240s / 240s and CS pass all first attempt
Do some observers or research apply to medium and low tier IM
Programs and don't match
PD: doctor X need visa
I get why people with really low scores and multiple attempts don't match . but when I saw doctor X profile I wondering how he failed to match and other IMG matched with lower scores. Besides connections (wich is really variable and I don't have now ). What NON US IMG can improve to match ?
I got a decent score 243 on step 1 and working on step 2 ck . actually not coming here to get reassuring about scores .
I am a NON US IMG 2014 grad (December 2014).
Let's suppose I get a good score on step 2 ck and pass CS first attempt.
All within this year. How can I get closer to match in a low competitive specialty (IM or Neurology) ? Asking this because
It seens than score don't assure you a position.
Any advice is highly valuable.
Thanks
