- Hi everyone!
I did a Q/A with Dr. Watts a few weeks back.
Dr. Tabitha Watts is a Pediatrics Emergency Medicine Attending at John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County
The whole video is about an hour long: • Q/A Session w a Progra...
Since a lot of you might not have time to watch it, I split it into 8 parts based on the topic.
This is the second part in this series
We have discussed:
- Red flags on residency applications
- Do different specialties look at different parts of the application?
- How important are Step scores [when is a 240 considered better than a 260+?]
I hope you liked it!

What if you have research experience, but no publication was made
That’s alright! Still counts as research experience
@@IshwariChandran from where can you get a research experience ???
I'm completed my Internship in April 2021. I gave neet pg in sept 2021 and got decent score. Due to delay in counseling process this year I got MS ENT seat in April 2022. Now I didn't join that seat and decided to give usmle for internal medicine. I will definitely give my step1 in dec 2022.
So I have 1 gap year in my CV ie from April 2021 to April 2022 in which i prepared for neet pg for few months, wrote a research paper for few months and worked as medical officer in a hospital for 2 months. So is this a red flag for application
As Dr. Watts mentioned in this video, as long as you address it, it won't be a strict red flag
I have 3 year gap between my high school to medical school in India. For preparing neet ug. Is this creat any problem in usmle journey?
Same doubt u got answer?

@@kookie-rd6pe only those who have completed their MBBS from a medical college accredited by a body, which is recognised by WFME (World Federation for Medical Education), will be able to take the USMLE .
Not even a single college is accredited by WFME in India. If you are in India maximum eligibility is till 2024
