Hello all and thanks for taking the time to read this:
I am currently a first year medical student attending medical school outside of the United States. A little background on me: I am an American citizen and I earned my bachelors degree from an American institution. I have also earned three separate masters degrees all at American institutions. The first was a masters in public health, the second was a masters in dermatological sciences, and the third was a masters of health administration. I have some research experience from my masters degree programs, but no publications.
Considering I’m only in my first year of medical school, I have not yet taken any of the board exams. Besides studying to do well on step 1 and step 2 ck, I wanted to ask what else I should be doing as an international medical student to increase my chances of matching into an American pathology residency and eventually a dermatopathology fellowship? Having gone abroad for medical school I am not picky about location. I just want a chance at my preferred specialty. Thanks for your time.
