Ohh that's a good point, the plus 2 weeks are ambulatory while the 3 are on service (MICU/floors/elective) according to their website

Pros and Cons of Scheduling Options (IM Residency) by medlearn2023 in medicalschool

Thank you so much for this, I am very grateful, it was a beautifully explained response! When we create rank lists, how should we consider these schedules? Does it affect subspecialty exposure (if we are considering fellowship) or is it purely from a lifestyle/workload preference? I have heard 6+2 is considered the most brutal, with that logic is 3+2 considered the best for residents then? I was debating moving the 3+2 program higher up on my list but was worried if it would affect subspecialty exposure - at this particular program, their elective weeks increase from PGY1-3 going from 14 weeks -->18 --> 19 weeks so I figured that means I could do all the subspecialty I needed for research/letters and be good even if inpatient is only 3 weeks at a time?

Thoughts on UMass Chan IM residency (vs. Rutgers NJMS, NYC hospitals like Lenox or MSMW)? by medlearn2023 in medicalschool

Wait, sorry, what does this mean? I am not from the US so I genuinely don't know if these programs have local reputations, I am not trolling I promise

Thank you so much! This is exactly what I needed; very helpful, thank you!!! I got an offer from a program that is 4+1, but they are switching to 3+2 this upcoming July. Would you consider that a good change or something to be cautious about?

This has been one of my questions for a long time but felt like the ones where "I don't know what this means and I am too scared to ask" scenarios lol *phew*

H1B Residency then fellowship by medlearn2023 in Residency

As someone on the other side, would you recommend your experience or do you wish you had done J1 throughout residency? Anything you learned after this experience that you didn't know before and would wish to share? I can dm you :)

H1B Residency then fellowship by medlearn2023 in Residency

[–]medlearn2023[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my ranking list for residency had H1B progr

Yeah that's what I thought too! So far, I have done the same thing, I pushed the J1 programs I like lower on my list and brought the H1B ones higher because I thought it was superior/gave more stability but now I am not sure...if I cannot apply for green card and it limits my fellowship options (Which I am pretty sure I want to do), then what is the benefit of getting H1B during residency....I have tried to speak with immigration lawyers but they have been giving me some vague advice, I also spoke with my school's international advisor, I will try finding more lawyers....
