Hey everyone.
Long story short is i have a green card (US-IMG), MS3, step1 232, first author papers.
At a small school in Australia. Can only get about 2 months of USCE.
I know Australian education is excellent, i'm moving because my wife needs to be with her family they live in the USA. (so don't need to hear about staying in Australia to train, more opportunities with specialities etc etc)
I have the option of transferring to a Caribbean school for MS3 and 4 and get all my clinical experience done at USA hospitals.
Do you guys think this will boost my chances of matching?
In other words, what do you think will be viewed more favourably.
a) Australian school whole degree, 2 months of USCE
b) Australian school transfer to Caribbean school, 2 years USCE, red flag being the transfer of schools + US-IMG.
I know Caribbean schools have a stigma but are they viewed more favourably than any other IMG?
Thanks for any advice i know this is a pretty weird question.
