Hey guys,
I am applying for NRMP residency match in pediatrics next year and I am really nervous about my chances.
I graduated from a Canadian medical school in 2014. I am currently doing M.Sc in Epidemiology and I am a principal investigator in 2 research projects which will be completed next year. I don't have any publications.
Step 1- 237, Step 2 CK-233, CS-1st attempt. I am taking Step 3 in 2 months.
All of my electives were done in Canada and my LORs are from Canadian pediatricians.
I will only be applying to programs which give H1b so my choices are very limited (only ~40 of them sponsor H1b).
Are canadian graduates considered equivalent to AMGs or IMGs? What do you think are my chances of matching? Should I back up with Internal Medicine as well? What can I do to increase my chances?
