.Most states use the FAIMER/WHO list so pretty much every school is approved...some states have used the Cali list, though now that there is no Cali list, not sure what they plan to do...some states take it case by case. Some states have their own list.
didn't have much on my CV except my scores, some USCE, and I started working in research during the cycle so putting it in my CV was not an option. super frustrating, I hope this year is different...As far as interviews, I had five.
I personally know a chief he matched 18 years after graduation with 8 years gap with no related activities.......he said that was pure luck......hope I could have the same luck and you too!
Plus you must have tons of connections I assume? I have a friend with over ten years YoG got matched just because he had a paper with the PD.......he applied only one and got it.......that was years ago though.......
I have a few connections, to three programs from the attendings I have been working with. But they also told me to apply to multiple programs, not just the ones that he has connections with. The attendings I've been working with are amazing, and very helpful throughout this application process, but at the same time, I wonder how much string they can pull with my YoG. oh... the anxiety! lol
Amen to that!
Never lie...if you are resigning then put that date down, otherwise put the truth down...lying is probably the worst thing you can do and if found out ( and that would be easy enough to be found out), there can be consequences for that.
I put my post doc in research experience. But that's just me. I couldn't find any clear guideline for post doc.NON-US IMG, 2nd time applying. The first time I had 4 interviews, and applied to 200 IM programs.
Step 1: 212
Step 2: 222
Step 2 cs: Pass 1st attempt
Step 3: 199
USCE: 9 months
7 LORs (all from US)
Publications: 1 published, two partially accepted, one submitted and three manuscripts being submitted soon, 2 posters presentations
I didn´t match in 2018, after not matching I passed step 3, I was an instructor at my medical school for 1 year and then I completed a principles and practice of clinical research program at Harvard University, and then accepted a two-year commitment as a postdoctoral research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital / Harvard Medical School in the cardiovascular department for two years (so I wasn´t allowed to apply last year). I just completed one year and I will be done next July. Also, I am going one whole day per week to the clinic to shadow my PI. Hopefull my CV will be better for this match season!
Should I put my current job as a postdoctoral research fellow in Eras as work experience or research experience? Also, it is annoying that you can´t update your CV after submitting it in September. My three manuscripts (which I am the first author) will be hopefully submitted month, so right now I can´t put it as submitted or anything?!
Thanks!
I think it depends on different programs. I know people got in IM and OB with 0 USCE not even observ. And these programs usually claim that no USCE required. Most of the programs are pretty clear about how much they want. Just need to look into it on their website. I think it's also a subject of change every year.
There comes a box on top when you search specific area let says newyork
There comes a box on top when you search specific area let says newyork
The box says
below range of matched applicant
Lower 25 % of matched applicant
Middle 50% of matched applicant
Upper 25% of matched applicant
What does that mean???how would I know where I fit..
Thanks for your reply
That the program gets top applicants whose range of scores are 226-235. That the program matches within this range and should you apply, you'd be in the top 25 bracket. That should be a positive and it'd mean you're very competitive for that program I guess
Primary care tracks will have more clinics and chance for outpt electives.
I am currently in a primary care track myself and we get the exact same training as categorical residents. The main differences are: we get preference in choosing our primary care site, we have 3 primary care blocks throughout the year where we do outpatient rotations in different outpatient subspecialty clinics (not only traditional but also TB clinic, refugee health, geriatrics, addiction medicine), but we do get less elective time to be able to have these primary care blocks. Most primary care tracks work this way.
Hi good people at SDN
I have a question about ERAS application.
If you have a previous residency training in your home country, where did you put it on your ERAS application?
I wanted to put it on the training section, but there are no options for out of country training. Can I put it in ACGME residency section? or should I put it in work experience?
TIA!
I guess they wont
Yes. It is ERAS CV.
So sorry to hear about that man. It is unfortunate BUT your paper did get accepted. Always look on the bright side. Unfortunately I do not think you can change your application once it has been submitted.Applied on Sunday, today one paper got accepted..
Is there any way to update our pubs after submission (suppose not, just in case.. )?
