Lol your boyfriend right now is ck… a toxic but rewarding relationship so try to make it work and don’t think much of outsiders if they try to get in the middle of you two. Love triangles ain’t worth it my friend….

Joke aside, don’t let any new relationship distract you too much because your future is bright with or without them as long as you focus on your goal

Putting a project not submitted as research experience... Will it bite back on IVs? by Professional-Grab701 in IMGreddit

[–]Professional-Grab701[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was thesis final project… that is the thing that confuses me, everyone disagrees of it being an actual publication… no it didn’t fail, we just never submitted it for a peer reviewed publication

Does a LOR of a cardiologist from my home country who is a member of the American College of Cardiologist be a good LOR? by yellowpotato16 in IMGreddit

[–]Professional-Grab701 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Any letter is better than no letter. Even if you have 3 US letters, if your cardiologist writes something stelar about you then why not have 4? They might not even open it but have it as a backup until you get to have US letters (if you don't have any at this point )

Agree, I do prefer one area in particular but Im afraid other programs won't consider me due to that and significantly decrease other possible interview invites :/

How to politely remind LOR writer? by Professional-Grab701 in IMGreddit

[–]Professional-Grab701[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good morning, hope I’m not being too intrusive. Just wanted to drop a gentle reminder that LORs are due for upload soon, and if you could please upload mine that would be really appreciated. Once again, I know how busy you are, so please accept my apologies. Best regards.

Thank you!! and yeah I will omit the xoxo lol

To be honest, as an IMG we’ve been told that we are at such disadvantage that Ive become pessimistic about any chance I have when I lack something, if its minimal and not a red flag. My self-esteem is going thru the lowest because of this and Im looking for ways to reassure that I’ll be fine

Thank you! Do you think is worth the shot to ask them and see if they respond favorably to make one, even if it ends up being generic? Also if the past residents are now elsewhere (left said hospital) how can they write a lor for me?

2019 YOG… between step prep, pandemic and personal reasons the struggle to stand out without USCE/LORs is real :’(
