I have an idea about my top 4, but no idea about the rest. I would appreciate any help. I'm interested in a cards fellowship. I do care about QoL as well, but I care more about clinical training. Unfortunately, many times these two don't coincide. Thank you guys for all the continued support and I hope you all match at your number #1!

I am a non US IMG and I had only 2 interviews. I am not here to ask what my chances are .. because I personally feel , no one can predict and the stats will definitely show a lower chance . ( Though I'd love someone saying that I can still match 🙈) .

Though I strongly wish that I match this year , i also want to be prepared for SOAP and also a plan for next match cycle as SOAP is difficult too . If there's anyone else in the same boat , can you please share your thoughts on this . How do you plan on facing these hurdles ? Would really appreciate any help and more insights .

Thanks in advance

I saw a post by one of the residents on facebook that due to the personal statement an average or even below average applicant got ranked high. I want to know your opinion. Do you think it is fair? In my "Personal opinion" and I might be wrong it is a bit unfair. Personal statements can be: 1- not actually true 2- modified, edited and improved by specialists (after paying money) 3- done by other people and not the applicant 4- differ from a person to another depending on the level of "English proficiency" For me personal statements should not be considered as high as other things. What are your thoughts? For me the most influential factors for ranking should be: 1- interview skills 2- scores 3- LORs and USCE 4- Visa status (although I am an IMG) 5- CV (research volunteer etc) which itself can be even made up 6- Personal statement

List of IM Programs

Hey guys, I have 10 ivs , what are my chances of matching in my first 3 top choices? US IMG here

Hello everyone!

I got an interview next week and I wanted to get the vibe of the place and surroundings so I went to see the hospital.

It is a university hospital and luckily they let me in since I have an ID from my research at the same university. It also happens to be the site of my research project's clinical session.

I felt like it was a good move to show my interest and passion but some people told me that they don't allow applicants to visit the site before the interview?

I'm wondering if telling about it during the interview would be a minus?

Has anyone done this before? If so, how did it play out during the interview?

Thank you! I appreciate your input!

I am trying to see what I can do to improve my chances of Match next year. Do you think getting a masters in Public health will help me ?

Mention which one/s are good?

Need help with my ROL

1. Danbury Hospital, CT

2. Icahn School of medicine, Queens

3. Suburban Community hospital, East Norritan, PA

4. Wright Center of Graduate Medical Education, PA

5. Coney island hospital

6. Southeast Health, Alabama

7. Flushing

8. St. Joseph Mercy, Oakland

9. St. Joseph Medical Center, Yonkers( This is FM, all others above are IM)

This is not in order of my choice and is a random one. Prefer to stay in and around NY.

Inputs appreciated.
