What are the USCE options for post MD Non-US IMG wanting to do Anaesthesiology residency in US in the coming future? I heard about observer-ships, any info on that? I am not eligible for electives as I am already doing my post graduation (MD) in Anaesthesiology in a foreign country.
TIA.

Hi, I’m an international medical student about to start my last year. Currently I’ve not made my STEP 1 and I’ve read about the importance of USCE. I know my options are limited, but from what I’ve read, clinical electives available for me are 3000-5000 each month. Honestly that’s a lot of money...

What visa does a non-US IMG require to do a internal medicine or family med externship? If you’ve done an externship and are a non-US IMG, your input would be invaluable to me. Thanks!
Hey guys, I need some advice on if those paid USCE is worth it, I'm in a very confusing place right now. So basically I plan on getting USCE this year, but due to some SNAFU last year, I ended up with nothing, and now with graduation coming in 1 month, I will end up becoming a graduate, and...

Seems like every IMG on this site has scored a 250 who is getting IVs. Would like to hear the experience of those with lower scores.
I had a disappointing 219 on step 1. I'm an undergraduate in my home country. I only want to do neurology but I don't know how much of a red flag that score is...

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...
My international medical school (which is accredited and accepted by the US) has an affiliation with a hospital in New York but it is NOT an ACGME teaching hospital. I am worried that doing all my 6th year core clinical rotations there may be considered unacceptable by the state licensing board...
