I've heard that new health insurance will start for about 30 million american , does this give chance to old IMGs to find a place there to cover need, any idea?
So far residency programs did not increase the number of positions available for residents.
Also at the same time they have increased the American medical school enrollment by 5% this year.
Therefore, if ever there will be more need for doctors then it will be covered by American grads rather than IMGs.
Thank you Mary for your reply , whenever I'm exited to finish step 1 despite working & caring about my Family I feel disappointed when I find that no hope for old graduate.I'm doing my best & I hope to find a residency in USA
My friend was 14 years after grad when he matched
his scored were 84-1 and 86-2 and 79-3 and CS second attempt
he had no USCE
he matched in family medicine this year!
Of course, you can use your connections and they'll make the PD calls you for an interview when you apply for the match.
This is the most important weapon that you should focus when you apply for the match.
