Hi Im an IMG who recently finish step 1 , step 2 ck and awaiting for CS results . Now I'm in this process but In order to understand more this process I need to Know how advanced and preliminary programs works .. Im Applying for a residency possition in Neurology but I have seen many programs who offered advanced , preliminary .. Until now I know that many programs require 1 year of Internal medicine in PGY1 or Transitional year but my BIG DOUBT is when you apply for this advanced passition it's including there my first Year of internal medicine or I have to apply for IM and next year apply through ERAS again to a Neurology Program , and what is the difference between preliminar and advanced .....

PLZ I APPRECIATE YOUR ANSWERS .. PLZ ANSWER SOON

An advanced position is one that starts 1 year after the match. In these programs u can apply for 1yr prelim and for the advanced program together in the same match eg: for a 2009 neurology position u apply for 2008 prelim and 2009 Neurology programs together in the 2008 match.The deal is that u hv to get matched in both simultaneously. Hope this helps.
