hello, i am an IMG working full-time in a lab. i am also working on the board test.
Considering the competitive situation in the residency application for IMGs, one of the challengings is the USCE in the application materials. what I read from internet is that the shadowing( Observership ) and volunteer experience in the U.S. are typically NOT accepted as USCE. While I have to work full-time. How am I able to find USCE accepted by the residency program ? people mentioned the externship is an option. But this takes several months of full-time dedication in that paid-opportunity and usually operated by commercial service companies with thousands of $$ and ends up a reference letter upon finishing.
thanks for any tips.
