Hi,
I am an IMG, have not yet taken my step1. I plan to apply for electives during OCT-DEC 2011. I want to have approximately 3 months of USCE. My problem is that I don't know which place to apply when.. the places like harvard, nih, have specified dates for their electives. I dont want to spent twelve to fifteen days doing nothing between my electives, as it'll cut short my working days.. any suggestions how to avoid this? also should I apply for one subject for three different dates, or should I apply for different specialties in the same month?
