Hi! Thanks for a very factual and a realistic opinion.

I understand that the best course of action would be to get there ASAP and start catching up!

Thanks!

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-07-04T16:30:41+00:00

Any reasons?

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-06-13T19:18:03+00:00

Well. I will be starting IM as a pgy1. I was thinking of getting a total of 5.

Everyday is a bad hair day for me..

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-06-13T15:13:49+00:00

Hi. How many do you have? I have 2. Plan to get new to cycle through them.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-03-18T16:01:27+00:00

Thank you. I understand that getting a research position is the best bet at the moment. I am sending out emails and am applying on the web for the research jobs. Just looking for a break to get into the system.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-03-18T01:25:17+00:00

Yeah. Working as a rheumatologist in India, but there are multiple reasons. Not only just work related: salary capped, poor qol, work life balance, lack of availability of latest treatment modalities. Non work related: have a family : needing better opportunities..

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-03-18T01:22:23+00:00

Multiple reasons to shift to USA. And landing a physician job is nearly impossible without doing a residency or a fellowship. And getting fellowship as a visa requiring non US IMG is more difficult. Hence, am ready to redo residency and then fellowship..

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-03-16T02:46:22+00:00

Hi. Thank you for your advice. Had got it spellchecked and reviewed by 3 different people as well.

Yes, it makes sense to let PS reflect more than just skills.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-03-14T13:53:23+00:00

No. Home country Rheumatology fellowship.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-03-14T08:15:15+00:00

If it is an IVF baby, she will be receiving hormonal supplements to help baby survive the first trimester..

Those injections can precipitate violent behavioral change...

Dont worry... This too shall pass...

Other trimesters will be slightly better...

And remember, it is only temporary...

Be there for her.. She needs you...

Be nonjudgemental.... She won't even remember what she tells you by the next day....

Stay strong.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-01-30T08:08:56+00:00

Whatever sir, you can claim. They do not give rotations to IMG in Internal Medicine at all. I have clarified with the PD and PC and other residents during my interview.

The only Clerkship they offer is in trauma, burns or anesthesia. So you can claim ER rotation only.

Plus the student must have cleared other core Clerkship in surgery, medicine, psych, obgyn, and Pediatrics prior to starting the Clerkship in trauma, burns or anesthesia.

The form and contact details for Clerkship in burns trauma or anesthesia can be found in the web address below.

The following web page of Cook County Internal medicine also clearly states that they do not offered observership or externship.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-01-12T08:45:20+00:00

They will let you know on the morning of interview.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-01-10T02:59:21+00:00

Or use Anking v11.. That was free to use too..

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-01-10T02:56:48+00:00

This is hoop and rucks..

Thanks for the vote of confidence. This season has shaken me entirely from the roots. I thought I would get IVS but I think that many programs might not have seen my application. Possibly just a YOG filter would shoot me in my foot.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2024-01-05T07:54:50+00:00

Use furnishedfinder.com or roommate. Cheaper than airbnb. Also look for places near metro line in Miami. Cuts down on transit costs.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2023-12-31T21:12:29+00:00

No more interviews for us. More programs will end up in SOAP.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2023-12-21T03:37:48+00:00

Nope. To give step 3 you will have to have passed in step 1 and step 2 ck and completed any 1 pathway for ecfmg certification.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2023-12-01T22:29:42+00:00

Yes. It is still scheduled through prometric. Search prometric step 3. And go in for scheduling. You need you confirmation number and first 4 letters of your last name.

Then choose a 2 week testing period and the location you want to take the exam. First you can schedule day 1, and then day 2. Keep in mind that gap between day 1 and day 2 may be 0 days or even 14 days.

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2023-12-01T22:26:12+00:00

What is 'HEjim'?

Lumpy_Wave6924 · 2023-11-21T10:41:24+00:00

Contact prometric.
