So I am going to be trying to match in Ortho next year, and there is not much info out there when it comes to the Ortho match process for IMG's.
So if there are any IMG's out there, could you provide your thoughts on the process? Some challenges you came across and how you got around it. Programs perspective on IMGs ect.
Also if maybe some of you american grads ran into and talked to IMGs on the trail and they possibly offered some insights on the process for them could you share their thoughts and possibly your own opinions as well.
The reason why I posted on here is because it seams as though this forum is really one of the best at giving good advise.
I feel like I will be a competitive applicant with my step 1 score as 254/99. Also location of the program doesn't really matter much to me, so I will probably apply to every ortho program because I honestly really don't wanna go into any other specialty. Does it seem like I may have a realistic shot at matching? Any thoughts on this topic would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
