Hello all.
I am a recent Caribbean grad. I want to pursue EM residency. I see the stats on how poor the chances are for non US grads to match into EM.
So my question is, are there any relatively "easier" ways to go about getting an EM residency? Specifically, I want to know if it is possible to do 1 year of either prelim IM, prelim surg, or transitional year to potentially become a better candidate for EM the following year. Does anyone know of anyone that has followed a pathway similar to eventually get into EM?
I would appreciate any help on this matter. Thank you.
