Hello Dr. Asaad, awesome video. Fellow IMG from Colombia here looking to match in a surgical residency. Your videos are truly inspiring. Thank you for this content and keep up the good work!!!
Ahlan ya assad ya abnu sham ya lion, I'm an IMG from Brazil. Thank you to make this channel focused in help another's physicians who want to start a new live in America. I wanna be an ortopedic surgeon of knee, I will be so glad of more IMGS interviews about it. Allah maak habib God bless you always 🙏 ❤
I wanted to ask for your advice on a few things: 1. How can I secure US Clinical Experience (USCE) in surgery? Any specific programs or contacts you'd recommend? 2. What steps should I be focusing on now to strengthen my application for a surgery residency match? 3. I've heard that doing a year of Emergency Medicine residency can potentially open doors for a surgical residency. Is this a viable pathway, and what are the pros and cons?
Oh thank you so much dude for making this video and delivering it to people. You don't know what I was going through but now I feel better. Looking at your journey inspires me.
Hello doctor . Thank you for taking the time out to make this video and explain the different pathways. I had a question and would highly appreciate it if you could answer it. I did step 1 and failed once but on my second attempt i passed and i also took step2 ck and got 250. That being said i was wondering what would be my odds of matching into neurosurgery as a non-us img with these results.
I know US IMG are citizen and green card holders are non US but how are they looked at by programs? Does somebody with a green card and good step scores has a good chance of matching categorical?
Hi Asaad ,I hope you are doing great ,I would like to ask u ,that I am an old img ,I have completed and passed the general surgery residency program in my country,I am thinking to start usmle journey ,but sometimes I think as an old img there are almost no chance to get match in surgery as most university prefer new young. graduate.
Hello Doc, I wanted to know what are the possibilities of matching into transitional year residency position over categorical or supplemental? If an IMG (non visa requiring) wants to pursue derm? What’s the best pathway to apply TIA
Hello, I have a question about residency in neurosurgery. Is it impossible for a foreigner to be able to participate? or is the neurosurgery residence also open to foreigners?
Great video sir... Sir... What would be better - should I do one year of prelim or rather spend that one year on research ? Any response is appreciated
Tough call. That requires a full conversation to discuss the advantages and disadvantages! You can schedule a consultation on my website to do that thematchguy.com/residency-advising/
Thank you for the video Dr. Assaad. I wanted to know if it is possible for a non US IMG who completed home country residency kn otolaryngology to match in the same residency in the US maybe after a year of prelim in general surgery?
I am an IMG from India, what is the chance of getting a categorical seat after completing 3 years of surgery residency in India after medical school in India?

Is it possible to get into fellowship by just completing the ECFMG certification (completing Steps 1, 2K and 2CS) without completing Step 3 yet?
Hi, i wonder if it is possible to get accepted to surgical residency without us citizenship and a foreign med school degree?
yes it is possible
Great video sir...

من وين يا محمد؟ احلا و سهلا فيك حبيبي
Is there prelim also for plastic surgery or cardiothoracic?
Thabks for the great work
No but you can apply to and match in these specialties after doing a prelim year
Thank you for the video Dr. Assaad. I wanted to know if it is possible for a non US IMG who completed home country residency kn otolaryngology to match in the same residency in the US maybe after a year of prelim in general surgery?
Yes, it is possible but difficult.
Are we paid as research fellow in Usa???
Hi! Is it possible to get a surgery residency if I have 1 failed step 1 attempt, but a really good step 2 Ck score?
It is possible but it becomes harder with a failed attempt
I am an IMG from India, what is the chance of getting a categorical seat after completing 3 years of surgery residency in India after medical school in India?
Each case is different
Is prelim position a paid job?
Yes, same as categorical.
Does preliminary surgery have a minimum step 1 score?
I haven't found anything about that
No
thanks doc!
but how the selection criteria work tho?
must be based on rec letters, rotations and step 1 and 2 scores right?
@@killerpanda2086 Yes and personal knowledge of the applicant.
yep makes sense
thanks again 😁
Can an IMG get into neurosurgery residency and what about dermatology residency?
You can check this video th-cam.com/video/dvO9PBRSZf8/w-d-xo.html
if i want to be a cardiac surgeon what is the process ?
Yaa same do getting residency in surgery in usa is impossible for Imgs
Hello sir..Can you do 1 year preliminary general surgery and then orthopedics?
Also do you get paid as a prelim? Thank you in advance
yes
Does PhD in surgical field from abroad like UK, Germany, Japan etc increase any chances?
Yes, but not much according to the NRMP data.
