Hi:

Iīm a southamerican medical student, and Iīm planning to do 4 months of electives in a north american university (possibly Yale). I already have a contact, but there are a few things I would like to know before going there:

- Wich is the best strategy for getting LORīs during the electives?

- I want to get involve in research in this university, i donīt have any contacs ther, What sould I do?

- If I donīt pass to a residency program, but I pass all the examinations, can i work in the medical fiel in the united states, just with my experience in the electives??

- How is my english level? Do you think (based in how I write) that Iīm able to do this electives? Iīve never been outside of my country, and donīt wanna do such an expensive elective if it wonīt be useful to make a residency in the united states.

@marcemed: this is a typical behavior of a lot of people on forums and especially from my country. if you didn't say you were from south America I’d say we're co-nationals..

everybody is seeking from help to others and when they're in the position to give an advice, to tell a story, to give a hand they turn the back on you.. Nice going, my friend!!
