Hi all.

Do you guys know (maybe BBB knows) how many months of us clinical experience you should have in your CV.

I can do either 2 or 3 months. Due to obligations at home and my financial situation I am considering doing just 2 months (e.i. 2 elective courses of 4 weeks each). Is that a choice I will regret? Is it much better to have 3 months of US clinical experience instead of just 2?

Hej svensk lakare!

usually, people say "the more, the better". But what I think is more important is what kind of clinical exposure you will get. As long as the clinical exposure you get is related to the field you will apply for, it will be looked at as relevant. Otherwise, it just doesn't matter. So, long story short, if those 2 months are in a relevant field, go for 2 months and spare your finances for the long and painfully expensive interview trail.
