hi puchpal

sorry for not answering before. I liked them a lot, residents are very happy. Good teaching, psychotherapy stong. No research. Read about suicide rates in detroit (they went close to zero according to one of the faculty). People very nice and friendly, no difficult questions. U will be fine.

Ive good things about the place as far as IM is concerned. Do know of a resident leaving for another program though, in psychiatry.

hey puchpal we r IMGs take where ever u get premach
going fr match is highly risky and we have no choice left


  #10

and by the way Henry ford is better then wayne in some aspects
I love to go to Wayne


  #11

Quite often and more and more intensely I hear about the risk of going into match for IMGs rather than accepting a prematch... Hmmm really a tough decision!! confused

Recently I talked to an east indian guy who had done 3 years of psych back in UK and is interviewing now for US slots. He told me that it is still quite easy to be a Psych in UK and there is no increase in UK Psych IMGs applying for US slots.

So, I wonder, if it is not the UK factor making the psych match more competitive than what is it??? Any idea?



  #12

yea newyg I have a friend who is an internist and practicing in CA. She strongly advice me to grab my prematch offer and never go to match! So ...

  #13

advises not advice! sorry

  #14

yes Nadia go for prematch
Psych in UK is OK for now , but most of them are thinking to cme to US becuz of uncertainity in UK
my friend who has MRCPscyh and Masters in Psychology wants to come

seven of my IVs are going fr match
Drexel PD is unique he has equal distribution of residents Indians, Nigerians, Latinos and Europeans has not offered pre match to any one so far

  #15

I met a Nigerian who has been doing his specialist training in Scotland but was unable to continue due to changes in the UK system during one of my interviews... poor chap... he was really badly affected by the change in system...


  #16

Hmm.. if I was a UK psych trainee applying for US then I'd have told the same story.. I dont know how difficult it is to get a position in psych in UK but it definitely is getting sharper in US whether it has anything to do with UK changes or not.
