externships

Hi everyone, I am a current 3rd year student in the US with two externships lined up in Australia. I was wondering if anyone has any insight on what visa to apply for? I'll be staying for about a month. Curious if other people just did a general tourism visa and shadowed at different clinics...

Hello everyone! I plan on making an Anki Deck at some point in the future once life gets a little more settled down. I was just curious what topics you all think I should include that could help you brush up on things, such as anatomy, instruments, and other potential pimpin' questions. Once I...

I'm currently a second year veterinary student, and I'm starting to figure out where I want to do externships. I want to do a SA rotating internship in private practice after I graduate, so I want to do externships in practices I am considering for internships. I know there are a lot of poor...

I am an IMG, who recently undertook a 4-week rotation through MedClerkships (www.medclerkships.com) If you are planning on applying through them, I honestly, wholeheartedly suggest otherwise. Whoever is genuinely interested in why I feel so, please feel free to contact me through this website...
