DeoriveraMD: Right about that! All I have are Rockband and Guitar Hero 1,2, and 3 to keep my mind away (read procrastinate *LOL*) from finalizing lists, personal statements, and CAF/CV.grin
Oh yeah... and going to the different forums too. How could I forget..hehe.

Hi! i just passed step 1 and was thinking of doing fellowship instead of residency in the US. I finished OB residency and then Perinatology as fellowship here in PGH, and was wondering if the chances of getting a fellowship slot are bigger than residency?

If so, how do I go about applying to a fellowship program? I want to establish a practice here, but want to do further studies abroad. Mas mahirap ba tong binabalak ko???

  #632

since your plan is to practice in PI, i would try getting fellowhips here. imean check very good perinatology fellowship programs..however you still have to pass step 2&step3..and do the match for fellowship..and it would take time, i mean maybe 1 yr to finish certifications&be ready for Match 2010..get all the 3 or 4 excellent letters of recommendations- from chairman of pediatrics etc, your dean's letter or MSPE&start your MLE journey again!!!

I got my first IV yesterday at St. Barnabas NY. Good luck everyone.

Hi everyone,
I'm a new graduate from the philippines, I haven't taken my PGI because i've decided to go Canada. Jst wondering how I would go about taking the USMLE? i've done some research on the Taking the Canadian boards but I think taking the usmle will be better for me..

  #637

to seansico: i believe you can do it toosmiling face start to look at ECFMG.org website to know the process..where to start etc..make it sure you got your medical transcript, medical diploma, medical clerkshiprotation as requirements..you can take step1, step 2 ck there in Phils..step 2 CS in US& step 3 also in US..get First Aid for step 1&get the other books you need at the back of First Aid step 1.nod

Get it done soon...just my advice..goodluckwink

  #638

CONGRATS doc harry!!!more to come...sana balatuhan mo kami khit 10 langwinkhehehe

  #639

hi everyone, i have posted here before but it's been a while,i took my step1 last 2007 and got low 70s. then i took the board exam last feb and passed. did some moonlighting. i really want to go into ob but i know it's hard to get in sa US. do u think i should still continue on to step 2 ck and cs considering my step1 score or just do my residency here in PI?

i hope to get some feedback. God bless everyone! smiling facesmiling face

if you really want to do your residency training in the US then by all means do it. yes, it's very difficult to penetrate the US graduate medical education especially for IMGs but that does not mean it can't be done. Just because it's hard doesn't mean that you shoudn't try it. More so if you really want it. at this point you must decide which direction you would take - here or there. that is step 1. it can't be both ways. just my 1 philippine peso worth of advise.
