Hello everyone,
I'm an IMG from South America. I graduated back in 2016 and have been working as primary care while studying for the USMLEs. I recently got my score for Step 1 (209). What would be my best options to improve my chances to match into IM, Peds or FM?

Get a perfect Step 2 result. Honestly, it will be very hard for you to match in the US, assuming you have no USCE, need a visa, and graduated quite a while back.
