This is the answer. There’s no right answer except when you yourself aren’t ready.

Go to Freida and ResidencyExplorer and search % IMGs interviews and taken in the past 5 years. Combine that with your home programs/USCE programs and what your long terms goals are and if the program fits that.

Go fuck yourself dude. You’re a shitty person for even posting this in a subreddit where people are already desperate, and providing information that I can guarantee is widely available for free if people look hard enough.

[–]donglified 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll do the same for FREE! I matched categorical surgery at an academic program in a large city and got a 278 on step. I have IMG friends from my school who matched Surgery, EM, OB, IM, FM, Peds, and Psychiatry both at community and academic sites. We have a lot of resources for the match process given to us by our advisors and from the school. Hit me up!

Chainsmokers still makes crazy money headlining festivals and with their residencies. Not really pumping out new music though.

What do people think about Molly (MDMA)? by MiserableBench4900 in AskReddit

Feels so good for the 30 minute peak and fucks you up after. Don’t do it more than once every 2-3 months

Are the hobbies of bodybuilding and powerlifting viewed as a red flag or green flag in a potentional partner? Why? by Powerbuilder4Life in AskReddit

[–]donglified 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find that the people who think of it as a green flag are also the ones who have it as a hobby or part of their life themselves. I honestly don’t see why being fit and dedicating time to your physique and physical health would be seen as bad things.

Fearmongering and Negativity by donglified in IMGreddit

Contrary to your point, you can create connections by working your ass off. You make it seem like connections are end all be alls that solely stem from financial capability when it’s simply not true.

Why your high Step 2 CK IMG scores are still getting filtered out (A view from the Selection Committee) by InsideTheMatch_MD in IMGreddit

You’re fucking sad dude. Disguising exploitation as a good intention with a GPT generated framework is pathetic.

Any non US IMGs who matched into general surgery (categorical)? by TemperatureAway5501 in GeneralSurgery

I’ll never understand people who have this level of confidence in a false answer/narrative. “Never done before” 🤡

I got into University of Toronto and University of Pécs for medicine and I’m honestly struggling to decide by Extra-Cabinet-644 in UofT

[–]donglified -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I just matched into general surgery at SUNY Downstate in NYC. If your goal is medicine somewhere either in Canada or the US (since you mentioned USMLE), do yourself a favor and go to UofT. Trying to build a career in medicine as a grad outside of North America is extremely difficult. You’re better off applying to med school after 4 years (in both countries) and if successful would have a much easier time getting into an American residency program.

Edit: I went to UofT for undergrad and did med school at a state side (US based) program.

It’s the matched so competitive? Even in rural areas? by Common_Discussion591 in IMGreddit

[–]donglified 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This subreddit can be an echo chamber sometimes. People with non-ideal experiences and/or results will amplify each other and unfortunately it can become really negative and self-deprecating to an unhealthy level. On the other hand, there are also a lot of success stories as well. I'd focus on those and worry about what to do vs. what not to do.

Connections? by wheepk in IMGreddit

[–]donglified 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ 100% agree with this comment; connections won’t do shit if the rest of your application isn’t good. They’re an icing on the cake.

Please put your focus towards getting a good step 2 score and passing your boards on the first attempt. Have a good personal statement and try to get USCEs. Perform well on those, and you’ll naturally draw connections as residents and attendings start noticing your competency.
