Hello everyone,
Would anyone know whether doing a clinical elective in a US-institution based internationally would reflect positively on US residency applications?
For example, Cleveland Clinic London, Cleveland Clinic Abu Dhabi, Cleveland Clinic Canada
We're told that US Clinical Experience (USCE) is an important component for residency applications especially for IMGs. If in the case one could not get the chance to train in the US, would doing an elective in such institutions help their application in any way? Or would it not make much of a difference? Though of course, I can't imagine it hurting an application either...
This might be a question no one has the answer to... but thought I'd give it a shot!
Thank you in advance!
