Hey guys long time lurker.
I'll start with my question more info on me below.
I have 1 overseas elective to gain USCE, where is the best place to goto with my stats which will help me match later on? My preference is West Coast over East Coast, i have Nevada residency.
I'm from Small Private Uni in Australia got 232 on step 1. My wife is american and i have a greencard, i think that make me a US-IMG, even though i spent my entire like in Oz.
Starting my rotations soon but they are asking us to put in requests now for the one spot we get to do an elective overseas. I have 4-6 weeks i believe.
I'm locked in on psych. Would love to do a combined program - FM/IM/Neuro/Peds, but not sure if my step 1 and US-IMG status will hold me back. Alternatively would love a Physician-Scientist PhD spot in psych
I currently have 2 first author original research articles in high impact orthopedic surgery journals and 1 2nd author review in an immunology journal. 1 National conference presentation.
Also worked as a physical therapist and have registration in USA for including work in mental health physical therapy, Dunno if that will help?
Thanks for any advise on optimising my chances to match
