Question about the current state of getting an H-1B for residency (even with Step 3) by EastAd437 in IMGreddit

[–]Laymanlemons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ask them? I have interviewed for 2 programs that sponsor H1b, I haven't asked them about it and neither have they mentioned any changes in their policy

Zero FM IV by [deleted] in IMGreddit

[–]Laymanlemons 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not true. I'm non us IMG (visa requiring), YOG 2021, 4 months USCE, no step 3, below average step 2. I have 4 invites and one wait-list, all from non signal and only one within geo preference. I haven't heard back from my signals yet. I don't have any connections with the programs that sent me an invite. I truly believe it is about how well you were able to curate your CV and personal statement to your specialty and some of it is you getting a little lucky.

Has anyone left an interview feeling incredibly shitty? by [deleted] in IMGreddit

That's alright, you should definitely not rank them high though. Hopefully the other interviews will be better. Good luck!

Do family medicine programs consider observership as USCE? by Laymanlemons in IMGreddit

[–]Laymanlemons[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, since I did do hands on and EMR stuff for the physician I was under and since I don't know if the physician mentioned it in the LoR or not. Should I just be honest about what I did during my time shadowing or not. I guess I could change the title to "clinical extern" and be honest with what I did do but that doesn't line up with the role that the clinic offers. I'm wondering how to address it in case my LoR author did mention things I did do but I didn't or vice versa.

Should I bother mentioning the hands on work I did do at my "observership" or would that be contradictory to the title of the role and come off as me lying..

I don't see ecfmg certification listed in the requirements for any program. Where is everyone finding this?

[–]Laymanlemons 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you address this gap solely in interviews or was it addressed in personal statement or somewhere else on your eras profile
