So, I'm an US IMG, not from the Caribbean but over seas.
Step 1 205
Step 2 234
CS Passed
All on first attempt
I got one interview in Internal Medicine (I intend to rank 1st, letter of intent was emailed), and another in Prelim Surg.
The IM program is a new program so I fancy my chances... but lets say, I don't match this season..
The soap comes up and I know my chances are ultra low there anyway...
Would applying next season be worth it at all? Considering I only got two interviews, I mean I did apply a week late but I doubt that has to do with me barely getting interviews.
I might have a publication or two under my belt by then... maybe not depending on the journals.
Looking at statistics, US IMGs that get matched into internal medicine have an average of 5/6 interviews. So it does look real bad for me.
Its just a shame that the step 1 filters are there.
