Hello everyone,

I am a foreign medical graduate, did my residency in ENT in my home country, practiced there as a physician for 4years and then moved to the USA in 2014. Passed my USMLE step1 on 2nd attempt with a low score, Passed Step2CK 3rd attempt with a low score and passed step 2CS first attempt, haven't given step 3 yet. Did hands-on observership with a Doctor in the USA for almost 8 months in 2017. I am trying to get into research assistant positions or any other positions that will keep me updated with the current medical Practices so it will strengthen my application. I have not found any luck so far. I am looking to apply for an FM residency in 2020 September. Is there anything else that is worth giving a try- as in working as a tutor/ volunteering? I will be glad to take any advice that you all give me.
Thanks.
Try NYITCOM's emigre physician program?
