Hello community
I want to get your thoughts on my chances to match into hem/onc fellowship position. First I am an IMG I applied once before but didn't match . My biggest red flag is I am out of residency for 4 years now, other red ( or yellow) flags including scores in the 240s, mediocre residency program and no much awards. After residency yeI worked as an oncology hospitalist and to boost my chances I just finished one year non ACGME accredited fellowship in solid oncology at renowned institution. I increased my research work and in the ERAS application I have around 14 peer reviewed articles/abstracts ( probably 4 as primary author) with other posters, oral presentations It reaches 30+ ( though some work is repetitive ). I got a letter from FASCO member and a world leading expert in his field who I worked with in the last year. Is it worth applying it for me? and what I can do more to increase my chances to match?
Thanks
