Hello! I hope you can help me.
I study in russia and there the mbbs is of 6 years and they don't have internship like in india or china ( for complete 1 year ) they have rotations in last 5 th and 6th year I think, so I wanted to know when can I do my electives in the US, cause I read that you should be in med school while applying and doing the electives /rotations ? And I don't know the time line when should I give my exams and figure other things out .

Hi, thank you for this video and keeping hope alive for IMGs.


I just like to ask, I already have my step 1 score (229) and I passed the OET. But unfortunately our city will be under quarantine and my step 2CK will be postponed. I will be flying to the US to have my USCE this August-Sept so I might take the Step 2CK sometime after late September.

I applied via Pathway #1 and I already have my ERAS Token for this year. I am a recent graduate in 2020, licensed physician in another country, with 1 published research. I hope to get strong LoRs by early Sept.

Given that I have to submit applications on Sept, do you think I should still apply without CK, or should I defer my application? Thank you.
