Hi guys,
I'm new here. It's been a long journey with medical.school and steps but I am all set to apply for Paediatrics this year.
I have two questions.
1. How many program should one apply to as an IMG? AND how do you break it down ie. Number of uni vs community program?
2. I've been reading about peds and IM get competitive over the years. As an IMG, should I forget middle tier uni orogramds or do I have a chance?
And one more, any thoughts on Cleveland Clinic Peds?
My credentials briefly:
Step 1: 251
Step 2: 260
CS: PASSED
All first attempt.
Grad year 2016
7 research pubs
2 months of electives at Cleveland Clinic in Paediatrics (I have strong LoRs)
Thank you in advance! Have a great day!
