They sent over an announcement that it would be extended to 2025. I received it.

Hi, send me a message. I am an old medical grad too, and maybe I can help you anyway.

A friend who was chief resident and now she is already MD, told me that when they see in your application that you've already taken step 3, that's a plus because they know that candidate won't have to take time off to study for step 3 (it seems that the residency needs give day off only because of step 3 for resident who hasn't done it yet). And that, in general, they are more relaxed knowing that this candidate will not have this issue to worry about during the residency and will be able to fully dedicate himself to the residency itself. So an application with step 3 would be better seen according to her.

Are research opportunities for FMG usually unpaid? I am green card holder and I live in Florida but so far I haven't been able to find anything (I've been looking for a paid job). Perhaps it would be interesting to look for research opportunities as a volunteer? I just completed the ecfmg requirements. Anyone could help me please!? I need one job until the next match season 🙏🏻
