Does taking a year break after final year, before internship and going for 12 months of electives in general surgery help boost our CV enough to match into categorical general surgery? Is that better than going for a post doctoral research fellowship? Thanks!
Great. Very inspiring video. I have been told many times that it is impossible for an IMG to match into surgical specialties in the US. I am a trainee surgeon in my home country who is dreaming of training in the US. How can I obtain a research position in the US from here which I can then use on my way to US General Surgery residency?. Thank you.
Great video, As NEXT is implemented in India by NMC where NEXT 2 must be taken after 1 year of internship . So, will it be possible to take break in internship to do electives?
@@lasa18you will have to try your absolute best on the STEPS, crush STEP 2, plenty of research and apply very broadly. Like I said it’s possible but it’s an uphill battle especially if you come from the Caribbean. But nothing is impossible, pour your heart into it. I’m vouching for you.
@@Joongsu I’m from Iraq. This is what I’m willing to do: Do a year or two of research Do USCE if possible Study really hard for the steps Excellent CV/Statements And… hope for the best Thank You for the Support
After NEXT is implemented, will it be possible to take breaks during internship and go for electives, as we will need to write NEXT 2 after 1 year of starting internship ?
thank u v.much for ur valuable experience sharing. one question,...i am pediatric surgeon in my country,so can i apply for both pediatrics and general surgery?tnx .
US research experience vs research publications from those experiences...how much does it affect having research experience but struck at publication stage..
Obviously publications in high impact journals are very valuable. Research experience is important but if you have researched for say 1 year then it is expected you will publish
@@narainsreekanth6593 You can use FRIEDA thats a good source for program search. we did a video on that under different context ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mls0WUvaw8U.html
