What kind of papers are needed for someone who is just graduating from an international MD school and applying for residency in the US? Besides, the USMLE test scores, any transcripts/recommendations needed from school or elsewhere?

Transcripts, with English translation (if necessary) are required.

You will need letters from somewhere, preferably US faculty, or your faculty, as well as a Dean's letter (MSPE).
