#residency

Hello! I’m a pre-med undergrad working on a semester capstone project for a course in my university’s journalism program. My story is, broadly, on unmatched MDs and DOs. I am interested in how unmatched MDs and DOs have been affected or are being affected by the Match both economically and...

Does anyone know how long it takes to hear back from non-accredited managed care residencies? How similar is their timeline to PhORCAS programs? Thanks!

If you're considering GPRs right now for the upcoming Post Match cycle I came across this recent enlightening post on Reddit about an unspecified NYC GPR. I fear these NYC residencies are making dental residents apathetic towards dentistry before they've even entered private practice. Burnout...

Post match is approaching and I wanted to leave prospective GPR applicants with a detailed BronxCare summary. Mind you that the program director has been ousted (after only 2 years in reign) so experiences are subject to change. According to NY state you are not fit to practice dentistry in...

Hello Everyone, I've posted previously, but now that I am getting closer to sub-internships, wanted to gauge my options in terms of sub-internships. I'm a 4th-year medical student at a US mid-tier MD program currently taking a year off to pursue research as I really enjoy academics and envision...

Good day, I am South African citizen currently studying medicine in the Philippines. Does anyone have advice on the process to work ra rice medicine in South Africa after graduation? And the chances of getting into a residency program there? Thanks

My name is charles falzarano and i am in search of a pgy 1 position for a family medicine or internal medicine residency. Feel free to contact me!

Hi everyone, I started at one of the big 3 Caribbean med schools right after high school. I'm not American but I did intend on applying to MATCH. Its too late to rectify some of the choices I made but long story short I basically had to repeat all of M2 (terms 4 and 5) because of failing...

I am currently an OMS I with F1 visa. I know lots of residency program won't accept F1visa med students. I am wondering if any of you guys have experiences with picking residency programs that are friendly to F1 visa people. Thanks! Also, I am engaged currently with my fiance. He will acquire...

Does anybody know how important it is that the research you're doing in medical school is in the same specialty as the one you're intending to apply for residency? i.e. if I'm intending to apply for pediatric residency, is there even a point in doing a research project in Obgyn / IM / surgery...

2nd year med student here interested in psych contemplating whether or not to take the USMLE. My top residency choices when 4th year comes around are at the moment the ones in NC: Duke, ECU, Wake Forest, UNC, Carolinas Medical Center (Charlotte), and MAHEC (Asheville). Does anyone have any...

Hello everyone, It's been one year and a half since I started off this journey to the Match, and if something I've learned during this time it's about the real meaning of "helping". Ever since I began studying at Kaplan center in Chicago I could clearly understand how difficult it was to...

Do you think having a small hole in my nose would be a big deal during rotations/ interviews for residency?

Is it better to go through an intermediary (AM opportunities, etc.) to arrange for a clinical experience in the US or is it more prudent to get in touch directly with the programme directors? If the latter is better please let me know where i can find a list or directory for such programmes...

Help me decide, please. Forget about the debts , salaries , years taken to graduate etc. I am concerned about the jobs themselves. I dont want to have less than 2-3 hours of free time a day. I also dont want to go to work in the middle of the night - I dont want bad sleep hours (not anything...

This article was written by the AMA and it says that most of the doctors work less than 80 hours a week so why do I keep on seeing doctors complaining about their work hours ? http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/ama-wire/post/many-hours-average-physician-workweek

Say a doc works a 16-hours shift. Doesnt that mean that he will have a 16 hours break after he finishes his work ? That is enough to get some good sleep and do many other things so what am i missing ?

There will only be 1 accreditation system which is the ACGME , right ? Also, can you please point out a few things that will change for MD graduates ?

1- Who accredits medical residency programs (at this moment) ? 2- What is the importance of enrolling in an accredited program ? I mean , what happens if a person enrolls in an unaccredited residency program ? As far as i am concerned, the ACGME and the AOA are the ones who accredit medical...

Will the requirements be the same for IMGs wishing to enroll in an Allopathic residency program in 2020 (after the merge) as they are now ?

He has to complete 1-3 years of residency or years of practice outside of the U.S. or Canada before applying for a license ? I dont understand what that means. I mean , dont they apply for a license after they finish their medical residency ? I read that from AMA's website and i dont understand...

He just earned his MD degree from a country in europe. Can he specialize (do his residency) in the US or Canada ? If yes , will he receive just as much money as US medical residents do ?

1. Forget about student loans. 2. Forget about my social situation (friends/family). 3. I am extremely hard working. 4. I dont get sad when others degrade/insult me since i am always confident of my skills. I know there will still be some stress but the 4 points above must be eliminating the...
