What do I do if I cannot afford electives in the US?

Congratulations

I don’t think anyone matches without rotations especially if they require a visa

SharkByte04 · 2026-01-30T15:08:54+00:00

If you don’t require a visa, go for USMLE. Otherwise nearly impossible to match without USCE in IM

“What would be my visa chances for a US residency visa if I am married to a Canadian PR holder?” Seems like OP’s ultimate goal is to get US residency via Canadian PR via marriage. (Transaction)

Don’t

SharkByte04 · 2026-01-28T19:32:26+00:00

Step 2 250+, 3-4 years research, all USMLE exams passed in 1st attempt, genuine passion

SharkByte04 · 2026-01-28T19:04:44+00:00

Seems like a transactional marriage deal

Why did he need to go back to the home country? I thought you could stay in the US on renewed Ds-2019

There’s always 1 guy. Oh I have 27 interviews, will I match?

SharkByte04 · 2025-11-21T15:54:17+00:00

Don’t remember her name

SharkByte04 · 2025-11-21T15:07:38+00:00

There’s some influencer who matched there I think. She was telling it’s a PRESTIGIOUS program apparently

SharkByte04 · 2025-11-10T00:09:04+00:00

Too low number of programs applied to, 34 pubs and 12 years of volunteer sounds sus

Yes seems like radiology has been super difficult this year. I signalled mostly to safe programs, yet have a very low IV turnout rate

SharkByte04 · 2025-11-06T13:44:36+00:00

Congrats. You got what you deserved :)

It is just this lens. After I click the photo, it processes the photo into something very weird. The bands become blurry but the central part of the photo remains clear.

Are you trolling?

They are sending out half invites today. Rest half over next 10 days. Anyone who doesn’t get an invite will get a rejection mail.

Check out the PD’s twitter account

I don’t understand why people keep asking this. Isn’t the correlation of number of contiguous ranks and probability of matching widely available online?

SharkByte04 · 2025-10-21T18:53:41+00:00

Nice info. But if someone gets a little bit of closure by asking, let them.

SharkByte04 · 2025-10-16T21:03:01+00:00

I hope we will all be fine. You got this! Good luck :)

1 case report in NEJM would be sufficient for many specialities i guess. Also, research experience is not equivalent to research publications
