👀 Please put in your thoughts in the comments section below- what do you think of the BIGSHOTS and the UNDERDGOS. And if you think I missed out on any other important milestones, feel free to add it in the comments below!

Divya, this is genuinely the most comprehensive list of requirements for the USMLE that I've come across on the internet. Thank you! The underdogs were definitely the heroes in this one (I'm sure most people learn about them much later than they would have liked to). Great job! And thanks once again.
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal why to do both TOFEL and OET exam at the same time is one is not enough or Can IELTS exam be an alternative to both of them and sufficient so that I don’t need both?
Concise and to the point! Divs this video throws extensive light on prepping for MLE and a heads up during covid times. Iam pretty sure this is going to serve as a map to all IMG's who wanna pursue their careers in USA. As per the technicalities of your video, great clarity and content! Looking forward to your upcoming videos! Cheers 🙌
The video definitely does justice to the title, ma'am. It's fascinating how you covered a wide range of topics in this video. Could you please make a detailed video regarding getting USCE as a medical student? Looking forward to more such informative videos. 😁✌
I’ve no words to explain how overwhelmed I’m by all these milestones right now, but I am also so so so grateful to you, I had to come to terms with all these sooner or later, and its just my first year in med school so it might feel like a lot (honestly it is a lot) but I can start with volunteering work and build my way up. So THANKYOU!!! Ps can you please tell me more about the rotaract club? How do I join?
It's totally understandable to feel overwhelmed, but this shows that this journey matters to you. There's still a long way to go, so try not to burnout and just enjoy the process including your med school ! Check out the Rotaract club - RC Caduceus website for details.
Thank you do much . So are like the perfect senior who is guiding me through all the baby steps . I had so many doubts before I found your videos. Thank you for making this video
After clearing step 1 and step 2, how do we apply for clerkships ? This is really confusing and it would be great if u could tell about this in detail. Also this was one of the best videos on USMLE . Thanks 😊
As I want to give usmle exam but I'm now a neet aspirant and I'll goona crack it this year only...so There is one doubt of ecfmg certification? I can give usmle exam after 2024 or not?? And at what year I can give this exam in my 2nd year or starting of 3rd yr?? Pls tell I'm confused
ma'am... I'll be getting in 3rd minor in 2-3 months.... I haven't started doing anything even remotely related to usmle... can i make it if i start off in 3rd yr?
Hello...I had a doubt regarding mspe.....do indian medical school marks matter for an img to match into a program???Can an img with average college marks match into a program??
Hello! The college transcripts are a part of your CV. Any awards/Honors/Gold medal you get during your medical school adds value to your cv. Its always a good option to give your best. To answer your second question, they view the applicant as a whole and you can improve the other parts of your application if your medical school marks are average.
Hey Divya! Really helpful video. Wanted to know how can I find online research projects that can be done remotely. Are there any websites for the same? Thank you so much:)
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal yes I contacted them 2 months back but they have a lot of people enrolled before me. Hence I am not sure if I will be able to start a research in time. Do you know of any other online platforms?
You might have to. Because that's the standard application. However, you can try to email the program and see if they need TOEFL. Some clerkships don't require it.
Great video ! i am currently in my last year for my medical degree and i am considering residency in the usa. I would like to know how long could the whole journey take on average ?
TOEFL isnt mandatory, but a lot of clerkships require it. Yes, you can take it anytime, but the scores are valid only for 2 years. So make sure when you apply for clerkships those scores ill be valid.
@@trishafilm Definitely more than that. With the new pricing by Intealth, we will need at least 3.1 lakh rupees just for the ECFMG and USMLE procedures, and add a few lakhs more for preparatory resources, travels to and from the US and clerkships there, the additional (miscellaneous) expenses for the underdog milestones.... I'd say about 15 to 20 lakhs overall.
Sure. I have put in some research experiences, work experiences (USCE and the ones I had in my home country), Volunteer experiences, and leadership roles which are distinct to me.
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal didi , is it true that Indian medical graduates won't be able to give it from 2024??pls tell I am lagging correct news about it 🙏🏻☹️

Why to do both OET and TOFEL together is IELTS is enough and eliminates both

Hi. I’ll be doing a video in detail for the clerkships!
I’m not clear about the MSPE. do we upload this or the university does directly? Or is there a choice? Thanks for such an organised video!
As I go we have to upload all our documents ourself o the eras application. But the medical school provides us with the document.
Mam, what is like the last date to submit the ecfmg certification? Do we need our medical diploma while applying for interviews in our CV?
Does all the same steps and exams apply for doctors who have done specialisation in India and want to work in usa ????????
Only usmle exam and process expenses right after getting matching we have free master right ?
Helpful 👍
Glad to hear that!
As I want to give usmle exam but I'm now a neet aspirant and I'll goona crack it this year only...so
There is one doubt of ecfmg certification?
I can give usmle exam after 2024 or not?? And at what year I can give this exam in my 2nd year or starting of 3rd yr?? Pls tell I'm confused
Simply 👌
Thank you!
Hi Divya thanks for the video, do you know btw what are the vaccines needed to do clerkship?
Hi. Please watch my video on the documents needed for clerkships. I've mentioned all the vaccines needed in that. :)
The milestones link doesn’t work. Can you send it here please! Thanks.
The google doc has been deleted, pls it would help a lot if you could attach it again , thanks .
Divya I am giving step exams after graduation in India, will I be able to apply for ecfmg certification after 2024 "
ma'am... I'll be getting in 3rd minor in 2-3 months.... I haven't started doing anything even remotely related to usmle... can i make it if i start off in 3rd yr?
Absolutely.
I am not able to access the timeline checklist. Can you please help!
hey this is super helpful
I’m glad!
Did you do electives or observership?
Your “extensive” research doesn’t include IMGs who are US citizens?
What is thr total cost of USMLE? (in INR)
Around 25L
Is it true that after 2024 Indian students can't write usmle ??
Average time needed from step 1 pass score to ecfme certification
thanks divya
Which college did you do your mbbs from?
Hello...I had a doubt regarding mspe.....do indian medical school marks matter for an img to match into a program???Can an img with average college marks match into a program??

Hey try OTTO Research initiative, it has been started by IMGs for IMGs !
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal yes I contacted them 2 months back but they have a lot of people enrolled before me. Hence I am not sure if I will be able to start a research in time. Do you know of any other online platforms?
Brooklyn USCE offers research electives. You can also just approach seniors or professors from your college and ask them for a project.
What's a safe score for TOEFL?
Hello :)
I have valid oet, m an old graduate. I want to do sub internship or external ship for usa clinical experience.
Do i need to take toefl,still?
You might have to. Because that's the standard application. However, you can try to email the program and see if they need TOEFL. Some clerkships don't require it.
Great video !
i am currently in my last year for my medical degree and i am considering residency in the usa.
I would like to know how long could the whole journey take on average ?
Is it true that Indian medical graduates won't be able to give USMLE after 2024??☹️☹️
Is that real?
Hbs positive dr can't get us visa or usmle residency
Maam mbbs tk hum kya kya krskte h ? Step 1 then ck,toefl, oet , visa and immunisation coz clerkship toh mbbs k degree k baad hogi na?
you have to attend clerkships when you are a student.
Clerkships should be done before you graduate med school.
Great video,
Is it possible to take TOEFL in medical school final year & step 1 in internship?
Is TOEFL mandatory for observership?
TOEFL isnt mandatory, but a lot of clerkships require it. Yes, you can take it anytime, but the scores are valid only for 2 years. So make sure when you apply for clerkships those scores ill be valid.
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal okk.Thank you for the reply.
But for observership TOEFL is not required right?
Thank you very much for this! ❤️
Btw how long would clerkships be on average?
Each rotation is about 4weeks, and it’s good to do a minimum of 3 rotations.
Is there any option for those who don't match? Jobs or courses any option in usa.
Plenty. You can reapply for the next match season, do research courses, mph as a bridge.
Total expenses in INR
From milestone 1 to starting residency??
2 lakhs atleast as I've heard
@@trishafilm Definitely more than that.

@@santhoshmanickavasagam2467 sorry I just noticed I wrote 2 instead of 20lakhs. My bad
Can one apply to step2 ck before step1 result?
Yes
thanks didi
Hi Divya, I need an update of how things have been! Please do put up a video soon!🫶
Will do soon! Its been exciting journey until now. Stay tuned for upcoming videos on my match application, interviews and life update!
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal Yayy!
Can you give some information about having a good cv, maybe the things you've put up in yours would help as an example
Sure. I have put in some research experiences, work experiences (USCE and the ones I had in my home country), Volunteer experiences, and leadership roles which are distinct to me.
How to do online researc
If you mean 'Remote Research' then again you'll have to contact mentors/teams who are willing to take you in and work with them remotely.
@@DivyaSharma_KeepingitReal mentors at USA?
@@drasmakhan9619 that would be ideal
