I got their list and I think it's a fair game... You still may want to contact some programs that are on your customized list, but you won't call programs that you don't fit for sure... Ultimately, you decide yourself...

They are not offering anything that you can't do yourself , all the info they have is out there for free, eg FREIDA etc.

But, I'll at least say that their info is mostly accurate.

If you are short of time then use them. I know about MAR coz one of my relatives bought it and used it he is now PGY1 in IL. So, I think its not fake and it does work.

I am not buying it coz I have been researching the programs thru MyEras with help from my dentist (i.e my wife) so it saves time for me. I intend to use Frieda once I am finished to narrow down my list.

I am using MAR because personally I don't have the time to research every program and I kinda got tired of getting no response from the Medical Education people of each program.

But if you have time then personal research is the best.

i am using mar...its good..bt need to compliment with freida...
as some of the hospital they havent looked for though it can fit your criteria and some of the hospital criterias not updated...

but i can still recommend using mar..overall its good deal

Hi, does anyone have a list of Internal medicine list from MAR for FMG, I just checked it out... the have like four criterias for coming up with the list... it doesn't seem very specific to each one of us... Don't want to spend 80 bucks for the list. Four criterias are... USCE, FMG, Step1 and Step2 score that is it.. and most of us have USCE, are FMG, and STep1 and STEP 2 may vary though.

I didn't buy the list yet. I guess I will. They offer $10 off for the members here. But it looks like that discount offer is not valid any more.

Thanks,

Hello Dr. Paheli

FREIDA provides you with information but not the minimum requirements which is necessary for your application. If they do, they add few criteria requirements under the comment section and it usually does not answer all your questions. FREIDA does not sort out the programs for you (non-customized).
