Overview
We touch on the basics which every IMG should know while planning to move to the US to complete a residency program.

USMLE

US Electives and Clerkships
A vital part of a superior candidate's application will include US clinical experience and clerkships. We cover the basics on how to secure your spot and how to become a success while rotating in US hospitals.

Research
Should you complete basic science or clinical research as part of your application for residency? We'll cover the pros and cons.

Letters of Recommendation
One of the most important and often weakest part of the IMG application. We explain why these are important, and how to get great letters of recommendation from people who count.

Personal Statements
Often the most stressful and difficult portion of the residency match application, Medfools will tell the successful IMGs what to talk about, and more importantly, what NOT to talk about. Be sure to visit our Personal Statement Library as well!

Interviews
Part of the residency application process, you'll need to meet with your future faculty and explain to them why you'll be great.

Strategies for Experienced IMGs
If you have extensive experience in your field, don't be afraid to show it.
