Hello,
I am an IMG and I am really interested in Family Medicine residency. I know that being an IMG has it's disadvantages while applying to family, but I really want to give it a shot.
So, I graduated in 2012, and have finished all my steps, including step 3, I do have an attempt on ck and Cs. Step one- 191, ck- 242, Cs pass and 3 is 210, GC holder. I applied this year, but I didn't have any FM lor. Got one IV.
Now, I was wondering how do I make my CV more attractive for family medicine? I do have a research opportunity, but it is in GI. I am not quiet sure how much it will help in family. I don't want family medicine to look like a back up. So, donyou advice doing observerhsip at the programs that I want to match or something else? Any input would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you
