How to match into residency as old Graduate: Step by step

[@hashemsdaughter4264]

I like it when you said that we came from the country where we don't know about all this

[@sudhaarumugam4474]

Very nice inspirational interview. When he said Match doesn't define if you are a good or bad doctor, it says it all. In gist when he said all the fight makes you a better person, better doctor, l can relate it myself. This is one of the best advice one could give to candidates looking to match. very nice interview.

Dr Mario your words gave a push.. was feeling low as things weren't going according to the plan.. You are a true blessing to the IMG community Thank you team sarthi for this video.

[@dhwanimaheshwari4464]

Thanks, Dr.Mario & Usmle Saarthi for such an inspirational video. The Usmle journey couldn't have been described in better words. I'm an IMG with MBBS + MS, but I have a gap year. How does it affect my future for a residency in the US?

[@usmlesarthi2024]

Gap years can be overcome. Scores are important along with USCE and research

[@usmlesarthi2024]

your CK score and USCE will help overcome it

[@outdoor516]

Yes, your score matters

Which speciality he matched into?

[@anonymousindian1947]

I graduated in 2000 and currently working as Associate Professor in Gastroenterology at a reputed medical College in South India. I am done with step 1 (2017) and step 2 ck (2018) but couldn't puruse further due to personal reasons. I am looking for a fellowship in Gastroenterology without having to go thru residency.. is that possible ? Need your kind help

[@usmlesarthi2024]

May not be easy. Geriatrics and nephro are easier.

[@thiliniwish19]

you can get a fellowship, even it is very hard, but to practice in the USA you must have a residency. my husband is GI too.

[@maheenghayasrafique5468]

What about people who graduated 10+ years ago, 2011 graduate but were doing specialization from my respective country, did fcps cardiology back in 2020

[@farzanariaz713]

[@shaikwahidasulthana2458]

Good video, Which type of usce he did?

[@usmlesarthi2024]

Mix of onsite and tele

[@nameeraahmad]

Does it matter from where you do medicine from? Like the reputation of your medical school in the whole of match process?

[@usmlesarthi2024]

not a great deal but if you are from a top school you will get more interviews, other aspects being similar

[@shaikwahidasulthana2458]

Great video, Applying to match after 2 or 2.5 years of graduation, will this come under OLD GRADUATION?

No. you will be fine

Ofcourse it is doable. Each year we have several such students. Ck score research usce all can help overcome the failure.

We didn’t understand a thing about connections , other than texting residents in programs 🤦‍♂️. We need some rotations which help us connect . Texting residents isn’t helpful at all . Since we need to be in the hospital with the faculty
