- Опубліковано 7 лип 2020
- This video highlights the main resources I used to get my golden list of residency programs. I will go over using AMA's Freida, AAMC's Residency Explorer, and the IMG Friendly MatchAResident. REMEMBER**** these resources help you get a broad list of programs and in order to refine your list, refer to each of the programs' individual websites and use these sources including your med school's previous match lists to CROSS-CHECK these programs!*** DON'T forget to note down which programs need department chair letters when you are researching!! This process will take a while so START NOW!! GOOD LUCK future resident physicians❗️

Thank you so much for this content! Being an IMG this is the perfect video! ✨
10/10 most helpful video I've come across as I'm preparing to apply to psych residency. Thank you so much!
Wow great Vaibhavi Thx for taking out time and posting this much awaited video
No worries, happy to help! Sorry it took a while longer than expect, residency has been crazy already!!
thank you soooo much Dr Vaibhavi :) :).. that was so on point and in detail. i really appreciate your work
Aw, SO happy to hear that!! Good luck :)
New subscriber here, loving all the content!
Thank you, good luck on your application if you're applying this year! :)
thank you so much you have helped alot!!!
Glad it was useful, Asma. Good luck :)
Dr V Rocks!
THANK YOU
Awesome video
Wow did not have e a clue about Residency Explorer‼
Glad I could be helpful! Good luck Shalok :)
you are great
Great Video! Can please let me know if Freida or residency explorer show how much USCE is required for each program?
Such a helpful video, thank you so much for this! Did you use a certain cutoff score to apply using match a resident?
Aw glad you liked it! Yes, my only cut off score was choosing programs that had alteast 10% IMGs, my friends had different scores like 5% or 15% so it really depends on you but I thought 10% was good for me!
If you still haven't done step 2 ck, would you suggest setting aside some time daily just to work on applications or primalrily focus on getting the ck score in by sep 29 deadline? OR does it not matter as much if your ck score comes in by the time MSPEs are sent out on Oct 21? Or both?
Thank you for this video Dr. V! Were you matched in a program that was in your MatchAResident list?
YES I did actually !
Very nice video V!! Can you like tell me how to get research opportunities in the US for IMGs? Can you share how did you get 3-4 research opportunities?
Hey! The research opportunities I got while during clinical rotations were by networking with really awesome residents and attendings who had project ideas or were doing projects already. It always helps just reaching out to them and asking if you can get a part of the project. In terms of obtaining research placements in the USA, I think you'll have to just do some internet surfing to find out what's out there. There are programs that take international students for research, I have a fellow colleague who matched into my program who did a research project for 2 years before matching. She found this opportunity by research online and applying. Good luck!
Is it ok to include volunteer experience we had for improving the ecosystem? Like out door activities to better the environment like planting trees? Or I shouldn't? lol. It's not something made up, they have a website and documentation that I did it as I completed online application for it.
Need advice: Should we apply on time (by sept 29) with step 2 CK score missing (exam dates on 10 October) or apply late with a complete application?
I don't see where to save the programs selected. Can you help please?
Could you explain the difference between IM categorical and primary care track? Thanks!
This depends on what the program's distinctions of them are - some programs have overlaps so people in PC program can still apply to fellowships, same as categorical, etc. and other programs have different schedules/structures to the three years. Do your research and read about what each program states for either track and apply to which one you like better. Primary care track obviously builds you for primary care after residency, this is the goal right. Good luck!
Hello Dr. I know the question may sound not fitting here, but can you plz make it clear to me; the oral presentation in eras publication section, does it count presentation we did in departments or class or internship?? thanks
Hey! In my opinion, I only put oral presentations if they were presented at a conference or if it was a formal presentation for clinicals in front of a large group (i.e. M+M conference, etc.). I personally didn't put presentation that I did in front of a few people or if they were just researching topics for clinical (i.e. if I was researching meds for cardiac failure to present in my rotation I didn't put that but if I had a formal presentation on this topic based on research I did then I would put this) - but this is my opinion.
How to use Residency explorer and FREIDA simultaneously (in a manner where you use your time efficaciously)
Hey! Great question and full disclosure: it takes a long time! I split up this task with a few friends I was on a rotation with during app season and we made an excel sheet where we all added info about programs that were IMG friendly for the specialty with location and other pertinent info like if they need department chair letters or not, etc. Once we finished this list, we individually used it to cross-reference with Residency Explorer to meet which ones we were ranking in that 50% and above catagories. So, yes it takes SO MUCH TIME but if you split it up or just schedule in time weekly to do this task then that would help with the process overall. Hope this helps, good luck!
Hey, does residency explorer only show programs which participate in ERAS/NRMP or does it show all the programs
Honestly, I can't remember, check the site, it should be able to tell you (I hope). Good luck, let me know if it doesn't
I have not done step3. should i tick J1?
yes J1 is if no step 3 and H1b is step 3 is completed and successfully passed.
Genrally to how many programs for IM and peads we have to apply...I am from India with 232 step1 score.
Depends on a ton of things - your step 2 or 3 scores, location preferences, financial standing/budget, etc.
please answer this Q. if a program says no attempts accepted or says within 5 year range...can we still apply if we have an attempt in CK or not within 5 year range? THANKYOU
If you don't meet the program's requirements then I wouldn't apply because it would just be a waste of money and time. Good luck.
Hey, how do we get this info? Where do the programs mention it?
I am indian origin IMG. I want to apply 150 Internal medicine program. how to choose program?
Hey, I talk about it in this video. Your chose of programs will depend on what you are looking for - location, research components, fellowships, etc.
what is IMG cut off in frieda?
Hey what do you mean the "img cut off" ?
Does having a greencard or being a US citizen makes you a US IMG or non-US IMG?
It makes you a US IMG if you American but did medical education outside of USA vs nonUS IMG is not American and did medical school outside of USA. Hope this clarifies it!
Unfortunately your discount code is invalid by now. Do you think you could provide a new one?
Hey Nia! Try it again, it should work - VMD15 !! Good luck :)
Just tried it again on the regular & full access one...it still doesn’t work for any of them...claims the code is invalid...they send me another code in case others have the same issues: SUPPORT15
@@niachoub4505 Hm that is so weird, it has worked for other people - try it on a different browser like chrome or firefox or safari?
SUPPORT15 worked. Thanks for not leaving a fellow IMG hanging! It’s awesome how you help so many....🙏🙏🙏
@@niachoub4505 Happy to hear that !! :)
Did you have to be really good at math and chemistry to pass med school? I’m in highschool rn
I really love the content but I really don’t get the difference between full match season and regular match
Hey! For Match A Resident - full match season means it includes time from purchase until post-match soap so end of April your subscription expires vs regular match season means it's only until Match itself so subscription expires end of Feb. Good luck!
Vaibhavi Solanki , V M.D. I am not yet applying for residency because I am still in college. I just wanted to know ahead of time to prepare myself anyways Thank You so much I really like your content and I hope by the time I will apply for residency you are still active because I want to avail your services.
