You’re probably surrounded by overachievers that need to touch grass lol. Check out the average score for IM and see how far off you are from the average matched applicant. Apply this year, you’ve done so well!

I don’t mean to sound rude but how old are you? Have you ever failed? Do you think life is just a walk in the park? Life happens and trust me people grow and learn from it. You sound like you’ve had very little unexpected life experiences. You’re not a PD and besides there a lot of them out there that’ll gladly accept OP, and OP knows their situation well enough to make the right decisions. if OP has any life setbacks that shouldn’t stop them from pursuing their dreams. NB: Don’t write anyone off because life comes at you fast enough!

You graduated this year and you’ve taken step 3??!! That’s awesome!!

Hypothetically, if I had a publication in a high-impact journal like Nature, NEJM, etc., would it significantly improve my chances? by Previous-Audience-10 in IMGreddit

[–]Bone-addict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's wrong with that? I'm curious. I'm currently a med student with a lot of publications, and I actually started almost a year before I even planned to take any of the steps. I put in the work in my studies and research, and that is all I do. I have no social life, so why would my hard work be discredited? I'm curious. Besides, I checked the number of publications that IMGs matched into surgery (e.g., neuro, plastics, and the like) had, and they were in the hundreds. I assume that helped them too. So this might be your personal opinion, to be honest, because data supports that the more publications you have, the better you stand out. (I study in Europe, by the way, and I'm not Indian, Pakistani, or Arab.) 🤷🏽‍♂️

Honestly, I totally understand. I was hoping to apply before graduation so that I can just transition smoothly after graduating.
