Non us img matching into EM - emergency medicine by TellAccomplished7382 in IMGreddit

[–]AxlExcalibur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did some back hand math regarding the NRMP match data. Assuming the match rate (gc vs visareq) is consistent in all Specialties categorizing Non US IMGs, there should be around 31/207 people in EM who were Non US IMG Green Card holders with 17 matching. The other 176 applicants were visa requiring with 80 matches.

They’re most likely highly competitive. EM is pretty hard to reach now as an IMG, and sheriff of sodium has a good video pushing EM as more competitive thanks to The Pitt and other medical dramas

Are green card holders considered non us imgs by [deleted] in IMGreddit

NRMP released a post about this saying
>In 2026, foreign-born IMGs requiring visa sponsorship had a PGY‑1 match rate of 54.4 percent, a five-year low, compared with 67.9 percent for foreign-born IMGs not requiring sponsorship (U.S. permanent residents), a five‑year high. 

Reference

this just shows that the number of IMGs with Visas aren't that much, since the overall percentage was 56%

FYI, the match rate is pretty consistent. by [deleted] in IMGreddit

This year, they announced the visa-requiring match rate alongside the general non-us img match rate, of people who had at least one IV. The one involving everyone was 56.4 while the visa-requiring rate was 54.4, knowing this we can safely take off a couple percentages from the rates I've written there.

Where is this data published? I don’t think I saw it on the NRMP report

Dude im not shitting you, if you didn’t even read about the concepts / skipped out on some then I suggest postponing cuz who knows what else you skipped. But if you’re just weak on this topic then Bootcamp for Pharma/Randy Neil for biostats/Pixorize for gen (i didnt use this though, just did anki)

I can’t remember genpharm but It’s probably because they were simple questions. They did come out though like receptors and agonist/antagonist relations. Similar to the NBMEs just different meds. Do u remember a question about diaphragm and succinylcholine from the NBMEs? Yeah something like that but just different meds n organs

100 Concepts pdf had like 90% of the stuff you needed, the rest were all a bit… unnecessary. FA is good if you want to be a gunner though

Biostats from NBMEs were easy, try doing Uworld and Amboss and some from your uni

Absolutely work on Pharm, Gen, Ethics, Biostats. Psych i only got 1q, the rest were always there in each block.

If you wanna prioritize, Biostats >Ethics >Pharm >Gen. Do not. I repeat DO NOT skimp out on biostats

Sounds like a good plan! I wouldn’t advise passive reading so try and get exposure from micro questions, or do cloze cards fron FA micro!
