Hi,
Im about to graduate and i'm interested in doing paediatrics.
I haven't given the usmle yet.
My question is whether i should do a 1 year training period after graduation( that isn't compulsory but is necessary if i want to practice in the country im from) and then give the usmle exam or skip the 1 year training and prepare and give the usmle exam.It usually takes a year for people from my country to give both the steps 1 and 2. What if i dont score too high to get in?
What would you people out there recommend? I only have very little time to decide now. I need help.
Will my one year training period count? Or will the program directors for the paeds program not consider my training period and consider it a waste of time?What score do they require?Should i skip the training period and start preparing for the usmle exams
Please help me.
