Thank you so much for sharing! This coming September my nephew and his fiancée are applying to match as a couple and your tips are gold. I will post an update in March 2025.
Hi Dr. Chen, this was a really helpful video! My partner and I are going to be applying for couples match this cycle and my top program choices are in Boston. I was wondering if there is anyway I can get in touch with you and ask some questions about the process? Thanks :)
Can you please help me regarding IMGs applying for couple match. because a lot of my IMG seniors couldn't couple match, so please can you help regarding that?
Yes, absolutely. Actually, it's probably easier since the same program can coordinate. That said, you both would have to really to wow them, since a program might be nervous about splitting a couple up. So regardless, always rank the way you want to see it go - because ultimately the match favors the applicant, not the program.

Hi Dr Chen, would it be different for IMGs if they apply for couples match? Is there a downside
I don't think there's a downside. I think it's really still going to help for all the reasons we mentioned. Good luck!

Could we apply for the same speciality?
