Thank you very much! Great informative video 🙏👍
this was so informative!
thank you so much!
Thank you so much. Very good information for IMGs.
your welcome!!
Respect Respect Respect
It takes guts to share scores anywhere
Yet you sharing your scores is giving hope to every US Residency aspirant to give the best and leave the rest to Almighty.
It not only is about the scores but also about everything you have to offer of yourself with the scores
Keep it up.
This was great!! Could you give us more info on what things you added to your ERAS app while applying for the match? Research positions, volunteering, observerships? Would love to hear more about your personal timeline as well!
Yeah I can totally do a video talking about it!
You are awesome I hope uk that!
Hey Dr. Alycia! Nice video! For future reference though, the California list for applying is no longer in effect as of 2020. Just a little heads up.
thats great! thanks so much Bryan hope you're doing well!
hello Alycia, i want to ask ,i m an IMG , I have completed my mbbs 4 years ago, I want to pursue USMLE. what should I do to increase my chances for a match? i will be very thankful for any tips
How do you find, community based programs!
Hey Dr. Saini,
Great content!
I just had a question; you mentioned that US IMG's had a better chance to matching to a university based program vs a rural community program. Which type of program have you matched to?
Also, I am a fellow canadian who's higly considering caribbean and but I simply can’t afford top 5; so Im considering St James and American University of integrated sciences (AUIS). Any opinions?
Finally, it seems like you're planning to work in the US. Is that the case or are you planning to work back in Canada at some point? Asking because I'm planning to do the same just not sure what the pros and cons of doing so are 🤷♂️
Hey! thanks for your questions, first i matched into a community based program, TWC in Scranton. And in terms of caribbean schools i havent heard AUIS but i have many friends who graduated from St james and they all scored well on their exams and successfully matched. And I plan on doing a video all about my future plans on canada vs US so stay tuned for that! :)
Amazing vid! Thank you!
I have a question though. Can I apply to off-cycle positions without applying to the match ?(if I’m still honing my cv which is still not quite match-application-worthy🤣)
Yes you can! you would contact and interview with the program directly and send them the required documents they would be looking for like your step scores!
Thabk you soooo much Alycia!
Hi I am gaurav from india I want to know about spartan medical University
Hi, wondering about matching to a residency in Ontario. Would it be easier or harder than US? I am a Canadian and that would be my goal.
My God your energy and your smile 😭 your smile alone could light up and mend a million broken wronged dimming hearts ❤ 🙏 🩷💗
Hi Dr. Saini! Thanks so much for this video. I was able to take away a lot of valuable information. I'm currently a 2nd yr IMG student trying to plot out options for the match. Do you have any suggestions on how to get US Clinical Experience as an international student?
hi! there are companies that can help you set up clinical rotations in the US. Im not sure what your medical school uses, but i would suggest looking up clinical rotation companies in the states you would be interested in living/matching in for residency.
Hi for a student from Canada studying md at Caribbean, can you get financial assistance from Canada to study md at Caribbean medical schools ?
How lomg did the matching process take in total?
thanks so much for this video! can you tell me a bit more about the rotations? what are they and are they required in order for you to match into a residency? also, how long is the residency itself required to be to get the MD title after you complete all the steps?
thanks for the comment! im actually working on a video of the whole timeline from university to MD. Overall though the family medicine residency in the US is 3 years long.
Hey how'd you get rotations in Houston?? I heard that was impossible for IMGs. Which hospital did you do them at?
hey! my school worked with a company who set up the rotations in the US
@@alyciasainimd5101 did you see anyone from sgu there?
@@mrpemelton I dont remember specifically but I rotated with med students from both the caribbean and UTMB as well.
Hi! Im also in Canada and Im highly considering Caribbean but Im not rich and I can’t afford top 5; I was wondering which school you went to? Im considering St James.
Hey! I went to Windsor university SOM but i know many people who went to St James and it is a great school with high match rates, youll be in a good place if you choose there!
@@alyciasainimd5101 THANK YOU SM 💖💖😍
You are from? An IMG?
