The American residency programs probably aren't that familiar with foreign med schools and their reputation but the many med schools IMGs graduate from certainly defer in terms of reputation and quality. Like does a graduate from a prestigious European internationally renowned med school have a higher chance than let's say a graduate from some unknown med school in Egypt? I mean there might be bias regarding the competence of foreign trained graduates and residency programs see IMGs as a risk factor, don't they? They certainly don't have to worry about the quality of education from another first world country in Europe, especially if it's a very big and highly renowned university clinic. So what are the chances of this type of IMG?
