If you were to write this as an experience, how would you phrase it? And will it make your application look weak if you mentioned you never had patient contact?

Hello, My med school was extended by 1 year due to Covid 19 I gave all exams on time so my transcript has same dates as they should be but my clinical rotations that I missed during Covid were conducted later so the med school duration is extended. This is for all the students of the school. What should I do?

Welcome! Dr. Mizani is here to chat. Thanks for visiting us!

Hey Dr. Mizani. Thank you for this webinar. I contacted a program who rejected me and was offered an interview! They said it was a mistake on their part and they were happy I contacted them. Wanted to thank you immensely for encouraging me to contact those who rejected me... I Wass pretty concerned before, but I'm so thankful now.

Doctor's Mizani patience is not from this planet 👍, he'll not give up on you until you excel at each question. I just finished the 20q session with him and it was 👌👌

Where to get post-graduate sub-internship?

Just self schedule suing eras self scheduler. It says so in the email.

Hello, Great talk thank you a lot. I am a bit conflicted because I want to match later than 2024, (e.g., 2025/2026) if I still should take the exam to obtain a three-digit score? I am not sure I would score higher than 220 or 230 at the moment.

Such a wonderful and informative session, However one thing is If you can please not use the virtual background, it makes a bit difficult to focus. I am looking forward to see more session like this one. Thanks

If we are named in a malpractice case in another country, does that lower our matching chance significantly? Thank you for the valuable information!

Very informative and helpful..

Hello Sir! I'm from Myanmar and graduated in 2020. I have been trying to take USMLE and I would like to know is there any possibility for me to join general surgery.How can i make sure to enter the surgical residency? It would be really appreciated if you could reply my comment. Thanks

I have seen many residency videos but Dr.Mizani’s way of answering all sorts of questions for the candidates shows how passionate he is in helping others.His you tube videos has actually helped me in preparing interview questions.Please convey my “Thank you” to him.

Where should I list my nurse practitioner license on my ERAS application?

beautifully explained by Doctor!

I have 4 IVs right now in IM but not 6.

This deserves more views 😂 this was hilarious

What is the meaning of the acknowledgement? Does it mean that my application is being reviewed?

Thanks for your questions during the world premiere. Below are my responses: By AnnaLisa Wilson: "How are PDs reviewing applications" @AnnaLisa Wilson: This year it will be very very different, due to COVID. We just finished a webinar on "Preparing for Residency Interviews During COVID (Part 1 of 2)" which we will post here by Oct 28, 2020, so please watch it for a very detailed look at your question (and be sure to sign up for part 2 on acmedical.org/residency-prep). In summary, they will: - Look for the value you will bring, your resilience, and adaptability, all fueled by COVID: “What did you do when the pandemic started?” - Interviews will be online - They will use social media to showcase their own strengths but to also look for you - Use screening tools like supplemental applications, and online skills assessments By Manish Shrestha: "When do you typically start getting interviews?" @Manish Shrestha: As of now, Oct 25, 2020, our member have not reported any interview yet; programs have been sending secondary applications and requesting for online skills assessments; we expect first interviews to be released by Oct 30, 2020. By Sohaib Khan: "​is this match going to be unusually challenging for the visa requiring imgs?" @Sohaib Khan: Possibly, since programs may not want to chance any immigration issues, however, they will soon realize that there may not be enough applicants if they do not consider sponsoring visas. This can change as soon as countries begin to open up their borders, and AMA and ECFMG and NRMP report on the total number of IMG residents who matched but were unable to start due to specific immigration issues. By Sohaib Khan: "All onsite rotations have been deferred 😞" @Sohaib Khan: Yes most hospitals are not offering any on-site rotations at all to any visitors. But this is universal for both US and International Medical Graduates. We expect this to change within 12 months. By jaya singh: "How to go about the new supplemental to app Casper gme suite?" @jaya singh: Excellent question; when you sign up for an account with Casper, they will offer you an interactive tutorial which is great and free. We also discussed the answer to this question in great detail in "Preparing for Residency Interviews During COVID (Part 1 of 2)" today, which will be posted here by Oct 28, 2020, so please watch it to get your ansewr (and be sure to sign up for part 2 on acmedical.org/residency-prep).

Very helpful!
