How did an International Medical Graduate MATCH® into Internal Medicine at the CLEVELAND CLINIC?

[@ArjunKelaiya]

This interview is worth more than the $2000 residency application counselling. Thank you Dr Malke and Dr Medhat.

Excellent interview.

[@user-dj4fx8nn8n]

Impressive great interview

[@enosfrancisque1220]

Very helpful!!

[@bharatrawlley6434]

Is there a downside to pursuing research for 2-3 years at an established institution in USA like Mayo clinic etc.? Is it true that a Internal medicine program in a community hospital will prefer a recent IMG graduate vs a 3-5 year old graduate who has delayed his/her residency application in order to pursue research in USA? I'm asking because getting a paid research position will often require a 2-3 year commitment. Thank you!

[@MalkeAsaad]

This requires an extensive individualized discussion. If you need help with that, DM on Facebook (Malke Asaad, MD) or Instagram (@malkeasaad)

[@bharatrawlley6434]

@@MalkeAsaad thank you for your reply, will reach out on Facebook!

[@amalmahmoud7907]

Great effort ...thanks to both of you Did dr medhat has full residency training in his home country ?

[@MalkeAsaad]

Thank you. No he did not.

[@yahiaedrees9790]

I am asking for some advices and procedures to help the students who will graduate from medical schools after 2024 .How can they now start to make plans to study for Usmle steps and other things and in the same time their universities are not accredited by an accredition agency recognized by WFME .In brief ,how will they do such exams if they wil be banned from applying to it after 2024 ?

[@sanadayo9739]

Hello can you ask after confirming from Dr medhat if he used offline uw for step2ck or online In his experience of step 1 he made it clear it was offline I am already thankful to you for the question you will ask him , please ask

[@jorgemd5544]

Excellent video! Does Dr. Medhat recommend to use ANKI or any flashcards during USMLE Step 1 preparation? If yes, during what phase of preparation does he recommend to start to use them? and Does he recommend to write everything that is missing in First Aid from the Kaplan resources?

[@MalkeAsaad]

I am not aware he used Anki, but I will let Dr. Farwati respond to this

[@tarekkurdy1719]

That was a great interview! I have one question though: as a Syrian medical graduate, are there still any chances of getting a VISA to the US? I know it's never impossible, but with the current situation there, do you think that our chances as Syrians will improve? Do you know if there're any specific things we can do to try to get there to do the CS for example? And then trying for a residency seat? Any help will be much appreciated.

[@MalkeAsaad]

Let's see how the new elections will change things

[@usamaqamar5562]

It was a great interview Dr Assad.how can i talk to Dr Farwati ?

[@isabellaribaudo779]

Any tips on finding a research experience on the USA that provides a visa?

[@MalkeAsaad]

There is a detailed video about that

[@Rasha-iv8gc]

Malke Asaad thnx ❤️

[@punisherit]

Great interview, I've been following you for a while on your social media platforms. Do you mind sharing Dr mateh scores, as an Img with similar background, 2 yrs us clinical experience and 1 year research (same place, different area), pursuing a residency spot at cleveland clinic, I would like to know my chances or have a better understanding of the minimum scores needed to be considered

[@MalkeAsaad]

His scores are mentioned in his experience in the description. Good luck.

[@ahmedmedtech]

i met this guy in real life , he s the OG genius mashallah , but he does not like to show it LOOL

[@amjdso9031]

Did Dr.farwati have any research experience before flying to US as a research fellow?..I mean he got to Mayo clinic not as a fellow for god's sake that's huge!
