Hi guys,
Very relieved to have passed the final edition of the USMLE. Finally my application is complete for Match 2008 (unlike 2007 which was a big disappointment due to delay in CS caused by visa issues).
I have 5-6 months to build on my resume now before I send in my application on September 1. I'm a foreign national and currently on a B1 visa. I've been applying for observerships/research assistantships to a few places but haven't received anything positive yet. I would like to know the opinion of fellow members regarding how to go about doing the same.
Any help/guidance/suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Thanks a lot everyone.
The following are my details:
Step 1: May 2006, Passed (First Attempt) – 90/222
Step 2 CK: August 2006, Passed (First Attempt) – 83/204
Step 2 CS: November 2006, Passed (First Attempt)
Step 3: March 2007, Passed (First Attempt) – 80/195
ECFMG Certified: February 2007
Graduation: April 2006
Step 3 details:
