IMG
2003 graduate
B1/B2 visa
USMLE scores in the 80s and passed
ECFMG certified
no USCE
5 LORs from homecountry mostly from FM physicians
other factors:
graduate from one of the top universities at home
decent grades
relatively good command of English
work with non-profit organizations
applied late to FM programs (one and only specialty)
miracle match:
one interview and matched at a good community-based, university affiliated unopposed FM program in the East Coast.
Bottomline: Scores are good but don't define who you really are. There's more to you than that.
Good luck to those who really want to be family doctors. May you be as blessed as I am or more so.
