Hi..
I am from India.. in my 9th semester of m.b.b.s... i.e my fourth year..
I have heard and researched a lot about doing electives in the final year (internship) of medicine.. but I don't know how feasible it is as i have not given my USMLE step 1. I plan to give my USMLE step 1 after completing my internship.. i.e in 2012. I am in a dilemma whether to go ahead and apply for electives now.. or to wait till i give my USMLE step1 and go for an externship. I don't know anyone in the u.s to help me regarding this.. kindly advise.
