Post your queries here........Hopefully someone will answer.

Me first..........

On page 4 where it asks you about current / prior training.........can we enter our one year of house job from our home country or does that go in experience?

  #2

If that was before graduation date, it should go into the training section.

  #3

is house job in home country includes being an intern? so one year of internship should go to work experience right? not prior training?nod

  #4

how about electives and observerships? where do we include that?

yes ha's my nxt querry?observership/externship? i quess it would be included in experience as volunteernod page 5

  #6

Yes deoriveraMD and stoney_meadow.........that's what I'm doing. I'm including my externship in work experience.

As far as electives that I did as a student.....I'm not sure where they would go. Work experience vs training??????? The training part only gives like 3 options.......Residency, Fellowship and Osteopathic something.

BTW........anyone else having issues with session timeouts on ERAS? Happened twice in the same hour and now I can't access the Experience page. The link isn't responding.

"All training would go under Current/Prior Training, unless the training type is not listed in the drop down box. If it is not listed in the drop-down box, then it should be listed under Experience."

I just became a forum senior........more respect to me !!!!!! muahahahaha

  #11

Which year do we enter in the Degree Year, is it the year stated in the Diploma(i.e the convocation date ) or the year we graduated ?

It's the year dated in your diploma (convocation date).

  #13

I know this is really dumb...........but do unpaid electives / observerships /externships count as volunteer work ?

  #14

quick question: When they ask about dates for examanation history, are we supposed to put down the month we took the exam or the month we received the result...for instance, I took step 1 in Arpil and got results in May......So,...I passed the exam in April,...or May?

Thanks!

  #15

all unpaid work goes into volunteer unless it was part of ur medical training

akm it the date u took the exam...

cartman u have my respectswink

  #16

Does anyone know if 2 people can apply separately for interviews and then apply as a couple for the match ? Or do we have to apply for the interviews as a couple as well ?
We are going for different specialities so we don't need the interviews to be together .

  #17

Thanks mukho.........you always come through for us.

Please keep stopping by. There might be more questions.

Thanks............

  #18

okay.......i have another question.

under the experience tab, where it says "supervisor".........how come it says for research experience only?

i don't have any research work experience. how come i don't have to mention my supervisor's name? i would've thought that they would want this info regardless.

  #19

  #20

I don't think you can certify your CAF till sep 1 2008. you can have it ready though.......
