Professionalism issues > Step failures > Clerkship failures (successful make-up) > IMG status > medicre grades in clerkship of specialty applying to > m2 course failures (successful make-up) > m1 course failures (successful make-up) > non-emergency leave > emergency leaveGranted I'm just a humble 2nd year, but I imagine the most common red flags are things like:
Step failures
Course failures
Non-emergency related leave of absence (not as sure about this one)
Legal issues
Noted professionalism issues on a dean's letter
