Hey everyone,
One of the members here has been extremely helpful to me in learning about this school. I'm really liking it so far. But I do have one more question I'd like to get a variety of opinions on: residency matching.
I've been hearing everywhere that it is getting increasingly difficult for international medical graduates to get residency positions here in the United States. Would someone be willing to share their opinion on the issue. And if possible would someone be able to shed any light on getting a residency in the United States?
Considering that one does clinical rotations in New York City, is a resident of New York City, is a citizen of the United States, and does reasonably well in medical school, is it extremely difficult/uncertain to land a NYC residency? I ask because I have noticed a lot of foreign graduates in NYC.
Thank you everyone and thank you especially to the one member who has helped me with this issue so far.
