I am posting a series of private messages between me and Sabio and I thought it would be useful to share with you the conversation.
ME :

Thank you Sabio
One university requested these:
Clinical experience
Evaluation in specialty of your elective
Proof Health and Accident Insurance.
What are these points especially first 2 points & how to get them??
------------
Sabio:
Here in USA when students do their core clinical rotations they receive detailed evaluation performance from their supervisors.
Therefore, they expect you (the IMG) to have similar performance evaluations from your medical school and core clinical rotations. and this is what they are requesting here.
The second point is telling you that if you want to do Radiology elective then you don't need to submit prior evaluation for that matter.
------------
ME:
Thank u for reply
So what is the difference between first & second points?
I am so sorry for multiple questions
----------
Sabio :
There's no difference they are just stressing the point that you evaluation should be written and signed by the professors whom you have worked under during your clinical rotation in your medical school curriculum.
By the way,
Getting an elective while you are still a medical student is much easier than when you graduate.
So I urge you do it now before it's too late and it will be very difficult for you get one.
All the best,
