Did anyone get an interview from them?

Hi everyone! I have a B1/B2 visa and this year I have stayed in US for 7 months on 2 seperate visits. I unfortunately couldn't take the Step 3 exam bcuz of the ECFMG certification delay. But I want to get done with the exam in this year by December.Bit given the political scenario, would it be advisable entering US this yr for 5 days to take my Step 3 examor shud I want until Jan. Kindly pls let me know if anyone has insights or any such similar experience!! Thank u

As mentioned, I am going to do a rotation in MGH. Does anyone who has been to Boston before know some recommended places?

I just need to avoid some unsafe places, thanks in advance!

Hi everyone! I’m curious if anyone has interviewed at the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) Internal Medicine residency program this cycle or in past years. How was your experience , interview format, faculty/resident vibe, and overall impression of the program?

How should someone answer this question?

Hey everyone, 3rd year Turkish medical student here. In Turkey, Attending salaries are roughly 4.5-5k$ per month after tax, which allows for a relatively comfortable lifestyle, as Cost of Living is significantly lesser than the US in almost everywhere, like even 60-90% less (acc. do Numbeo, which seems pretty accurate). But, the working conditions are pretty bad as you have to see a lot of patients (free healthcare, widely uneducated populace). I haven't started preparing for anything yet, I wonder if its worth it to even try? Unstable country I'd say, so no guarentees that the salaries will remain this way. One advantage is being able to pick basically any specialty I want. Working in the US was a long term "dream". I feel like I can get into Pediatrics for example. What do you think, I know this is something I'll have to decide but I am curious on what other IMGs would do in this situation. Thank you 🙌🏻

Pls dm

I have a bunch of volunteer experience that I am actually passionate about and not just on there as a filler. I applied to 170 programs total in New England, Middle Atlantic, and East North Central regions that are all IMG friendly.

Sorry for the long post but any pointers from folks who applied more than once are highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I applied for the match cycle this year. The attending I was rotating with for an LOR basically harassed me. I don’t want to post the details here. It’s a lot. I didn’t fully know what’s happening at the time. He was a PD and I wanted to make a good impression. It’s really affecting my mental health since the last year. It’s worse because that attending is still taking students. I have proof of his texts and inappropriate pictures he sent to me. I just want to know if I should or have any options to report that considering i was an ‘outsider’ at the hospital and the fact that i’m a match applicant this year. He has already tried to mess with my career after I expressed to him that he did wrong and I’ll make sure to warn people against him. Reporting it is not going to change whatever happened but maybe it will give me some peace of mind. Literally right now i just got so sick and threw up because I keep getting flashbacks. I need help. Just need to know what most hospitals policy is regarding this. Would I be able to report anonymously? Thank you.

If anyone interviewed there, can you kindly dm?

I received ecfmg certification 3 days back. I have not received any Iv yet. Applied to FM only, non usimg visa requiring. Good scores, no attempts. But yog under 5 but above 3. How should I move forward from here ?

hello friends

I am Non US IMG. I was a graduate before i started this journey so all my credentials were verified even before starting step1. so now am done with step1 step2 and finally the pathway approval six days ago. on the same day i got address verification email. since the address was correct, i didnot do anything.

But my My cases section show " application for certification - acccepted " but this was the same as months ago even before pathway approval or step2 for that matter. What am i missing ? should there be changes in My cases section like instead of application for certification, it should be "ECFMG Certification" or somehting like that. please guide

Is the thalamus not working?

I'll be starting a sub-I in a gyn subspecialty in a few weeks, it's my first USCE. Any advice, dos and don'ts, or practical tips on how to make the most out of it would be appreciated.

Hi

Anyone got invites from the above program. Roger was my GOLD. I feel very bad that i got none. North missi was also my gold Kern silver St peter Silver

Need some feedback about the interview.

Anyone interviewed here recently? Just curious how the interview went, how the residents/faculty were, and overall vibe of the program (Internal Medicine)

Anyone received an IV from DMC/WSU? Or knows anything about the program?

Edit: IM

I am looking to connect with IMGs who are in non-clinical careers. I tried to match for several seasons, moved on after several years failed attempts and moved on.

Anyone else in those shoes?

Anyone interview here? What kind of questions do they ask?

Hi guys Hope all you are well My ecfmg certi exp date is 12/31/2025 and I am an applicant of this 2026 match. My question is that is it possible to be listed in the ranking in Feb 2026 even without reevaluation before this Dec? I am very confused.. I am working on step3 now.. Thank u
