BBB i am wondering wont the PD'S check the authenticity of these clinical exp and LOR??
With programs receiving 3000-5000 applications and 3 LORs from every applicant, we can't check on the authenticity of every LOR. How? I wouldn't even know how to do that. Even if I offer 300 interviews - that would be 900 telephone calls. How could a program do that. But if you are caught, you won't work as a physician in the USA. Simple. The ECFMG certification is revoked. Ethics.
