Hi all,
I don't know if you can help me with this, does somebody know if it's better to take the Step 3 before the match for IMG's because of the visa? I mean, if we take the Step 3 will we get the H1 and if we don't, we would get the J1, is this true? Thanks for your help.

last question

Hi Steptaker,
Sorry to bother you again, but I just want to make sure of something, if I take the Step 3 before the Match, will I get the H1 while doing my residency? or would I do my residency with the F1 and then after I finish it I will get the H1? Sorry, but I'm new at this and I want to be sure. One thing I don't understand is if the J1 lasts for a limited period of time, what shall I do if I'm doing a 5 year residency? Thanks again for your help.
