In normal course of events fellowship is done after a 3 yr residency. However most are applied for by end of second year of residency
U do need a visa for fellowship....just as in residency, some fellowships will agree to sponser a H1 while others will be open only to j1 and still others will require a GC...same thing
Forgive my curiosity but on one hand u are enquiring bout Step 3 and on the other u dont know if fellowship is done after residency??! just gathering info??

Definitely there is no guarantee score. its the whole package plus your interview skills that count.

Firstly, dear newbie sonofearthh,...u HAVE to stop posting all questions twice on the forum. For members like me who do nothing else the whole day but read posts on this forum it gets confusing and saddening to read the same question by the same person on so many threads grin

!

Interview skills: It is the way in which u handle an interview. How u greet them, how u ans their questions, what questions u ask them, ur behavior, how friendly, intelligent and approachable u appear at interview. Basically how well, through things u say and things u imply, you manage to convince them that u are the best candidate they can ever dream of having!

for searching various residency and their information FREIDA is one of the best places to start.

http://www.ama-assn.org/vapp/freida/srch/

getting into residency isnt a direct correlation to how much scores u have. As MDin08 said higher the better, but everything else in your curriculum vitae also counts. I suggest u go through some more sites which have info on the basic process to residency in US like http://www.usmletomd.com/ ...u will get a better idea.

All the best smiling face

Ok Mate 2 seniors are having issues with your postings. So far you have been asking like an incessant kid. Use the Search Function. If you dont know how to use that look at my sig. I am gathering up all your questions in one place. Cos yes its getting reallly confusing and annoying for people who are giving the time back. So before you ramble away, i do suggest that you be careful in the question and be precise. Or better yet make a list of questions in one place so that we all can answer them IN ONE PLACE.

Dude you have 3-4 people answering your questions. So ask them wisely before you get put on ignore.
