Cant thank you enough for your dedication to help aspiring doctors beta. Keep up the good work.
In a nutshell, they made the life of AMGs easier and the IMGs' lives harder.
I don’t get you, can you elongate why it’s harder for IMGs

@@PavanDadlani.MD. how??
I am a 4th year MBBS student in Pakistan who is considering USMLE. The thing is,I study in an insane way where I go through the book and verbally repeat the important points or points to remember 100 times. It takes super long like 6 literal hours for a chapter,but it works like magic where I can retain 80-90% of the information forever. At the end of 4th year,I would've covered all the material related to step 1,I can just lightly and quickly review all the material and it would be as if I am fresh on. Do I have much to worry about . I am shocked to hear that for step 1,people choose pathoma for pathology when I am out here memorising Basis by heart for Pathology. In my own batch,I got 3rd place in 3rd year and I am also able to retain microbiology very well. I am scared of the step 1 exam because of the different style of studying that people choose to be able to pass the exam. Can you please guide me on this?
Like retaining the information is zero issue for me. Pathoma looks horrendous to me for the literal lack of information it has. If I choose to do step 1,I would most probably do it mid of 5th year,so I would have around a year and a half to prepare.
Also,how important are connections?
How hard would it for me to get used to step 1 questions and basically excel at this considering that I've learned anatomy,pathology, etc. At a deeper level than what is found in First Aid.
It would be more helpful if someone actually posts their success experience of the new Step1 pass/fail exam 2022
Great work!!
Thank You , dr.Madaan , for such an informative and useful video . Agreed with content, except that step 2ck s 60% is step 1 content. Maybe it was that way years ago, nowadays and with step 1 pass/fail , it’s totally different beast by itself. It’s so much and devil in details.Step 1 , with meticulous and precise information, seems easier to prepare compare to step 2ck exam.Step 2ck retain maybe 20-30% of step 1 information, but it does not make step 1 less important. Agreed that step 1 pass/fail made everything ( study for step 2ck, matching, extras) much more complicated.:(
I think this is beneficial because step 1 pass/fail encourages students to give step 1 in 3rd year mbbs. Once they have pass report. They can do US electives directly by extending internship (as electives are given for undergraduates only) and then seriously prepare for Step 2 as if they are giving step 1 first and step 2 continuously as before the change. And then have good step 2 scores and then continue their internship in India.
Not exactly a good idea. The contiunuity between steps helps a lot.
well, I've taken the exams for the 4th time now and still didn't succeed, i wonder how those who succeeded did it. 😭💔
I failed 3 times, i lost money to reviews that never but the major thing is that l've not lost hope.
Miss Catherina is obviously the best, i studied her Materials just in 5 days and I passed,I won’t tell you guys here on comment section how she did it. but will advise you contact her, work with her and see how she does her magic on student’s preparing for their coming exams. i was lucky to meet Miss Catherine only God knows I wouldn't have succeeded without her.
@Matt peter Hello I know about her too she Lives In YOUNGSTOWN OHIO UNITED STATE,I have her info she's a good and reliable person.
I'm very happy these changes are happening. 🙏🏾
This is all about to get much harder especially with the introduction of NEXT exam coming very soon...
Thank you for this video. Puts a lot of things in perspective.
Thank you so much bro, very clear and nice explanation
I can tell you step 2 is also changing, since step 1 is pass and fail for now,when i was doing my step 2 CK in October 2022,i kinda saw some similar questions with step 1 and also new long questions that consumes Time
Invaluable insight , thankyou Dr Manik !
i think pass/fail is great decision .....cause you cant tell a student you dont get to do want you want it gives time for a student to go through all four years withs peace of mind to decide what he wants and then he wiill ready to be evaluated by step exams
We understand you put a lot of effort of usmle step 1 regardless of this new structure we will always try to emulate your study and work ethics.
Hi I have UWourld MCQS for Step 1 USMLE clearance
If You want You can E mail Me
I will give U the details
Very nicely explained. This video is sort of like a reality check for the new testing regime.✌🏽👍🏾
In a world in which your general odds to get a job in the program you applied for is 2/700, changes in USMLE 1 are the least of your problems lmao.
how to get LOR ?
when u don't have great contacts. and you are the first doctor in the family ?
Thank you for this video🎊🎊
Can anyone give me some idea about how things will be proceeded after step 3?...... sorry I'm still in second year and is just about to start my preparation......so i don't have much knowledge about what exactly happens after clearing step 3
Completely agree with you
I agree. This is so ridiculous to make medicine become preschoolish and hand out pats on everyone's backs. Look there should be more emphasis on mental health, counselors and even more time to study for the step 1. BUT, you can't just make it so it's a plus grade for everyone and then expect the physician pool to be strong. The expectation of even the best candidates academically has fallen and so even they slack off. I worry about the patients now.
really? i thought the previous generations of doctors were absolute garbage and that's why NPs and PAs are preferred by patients relative to doctors of previous generations.
@@SunSunSunn No NPs and PAs are still not up to par knowledge-wise. I would never use one for a family member though there might be some great ones the vast majority are questionable. I would also avoid FM, sadly. The reason why they are more attractive is they are more accessible and have little ego involved so patients appreciate them better. I personally think MDs/MBBSs have huge egos that get in the way of their decisions at times. Many cannot apologize or admit their wrongs. Many dislike second opinions or their decisions questioned. I think that is ridiculous because I personally would want others to catch my mistakes so would listen to everyone but most MDs are petty.
All medicine as a system should be reviewed. There needs to be classes for humility for everyone and also anonymous feedback by real patients as to their care. The person being given the feedback should not know which feedback comes from which patient. Also, patients need to be able to speak to someone in an accessible manner if they or their family members are not getting the questions they are looking for answered or they have doubts about the care being given. A mere survey weeks later does not cut it; neither does having to escalate to some stranger in some far-off place.
It should be immediate. right there in the hospital. There should be a liaison or go-between for each patient, who is advocating for the patient. They should not be hired by the hospital but by a third party who gets compensation from the hospital. So it costs the hospital money when they hire bad medical staff. And the go-between has a neutral ground to work. They don't answer to the hospital but to the third party. That third party is there to review the hospital and perhaps give out ratings for consumers.
Med staff should be on their toes because of this.
Sir I am a 2nd yr MBBS student in India. I request you to please inform us about changing ECFMG criteria from 2024 and any way in which we students can still appear for the exam. I'll be very thankful to you.
Thank you for this!
Is there any chance of matching after getting a fail report in step 1 as IMG?
Hey Manik i am a intern starting my step 1 prep now ,but listening to you makes me think ,they made it tough for IMG and easy for AMG's ,also i am from a private medical college in india,will it affect my chances?i am aimimg for pediatrics
Sir can you please give the timeline as to when you took your step1 step2 and Step 3 exams, and when did you start preparing for the USMLE step 1 in your college life
Sir, please guide me about this. If one takes transfer to a different medical university after clearing step 1, can he still apply for step 2?
Please respond sir. Thanks a lot
This video is extremely useful. Could you please share a video explaining if the gap of 1 to 5 years after completing MBBS will impact the chance of getting interview/ spot in residency for IMGs? Is the graduation year also one among the other filter criteria?
Only if you are a very old graduate yog more than 5 years
@@manikmadaan and what about IMGs that already have an specialty in their own country and have been practicing in their field??
@@manikmadaan I have completed my mbbs in 2016 and dch in 2020 and been practicing since 2 years,I have graduated almost 7 years ago ,will that be a problem as I want to crack usmle
@@sofiarongel2247 they do prefer fresh imgs bur after reading loads of forums I've realized that this is very subjective. ...an old graduate might show more commitment to the speciality they may have more research work and papers and more maturity .....so don't be disheartened ....go for it 🙂
Thanks Dr. Manik 🤩
If Step 1 scoring was adding so much pressure to students.... then why not just keep it scored and just not give it so much weight while selecting candidates for good residencies? Why not just select more Step 1 240s for plastic surgery? That would lower pressure yet still give students an extra opportunity to show a good score to help their application.
Thanks very much Manik, that was very helpful & I have been following you for a while. Can you please tell me how many months after Step 1 would you say is adequate for taking Step 2?
5-6 months
US medical students dont take their step 1 during 4 year, almost all take it right after their 2nd year
😊😊😊😊😊 VERY GOOD, THANKS MANIK 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Hey Manik. I m very confused about timeline. What is the best approach for me considering I have 4.5 years mbbs, 1 year internship and 1 year rural service bond
Yes plz Dr.manik , also when to appear for US clinical rotations in between this time period of internship and rural bond ?
Yes I've the same confusion
its better you know, knowing the privilege that we get we should use it and strive hard to get into med school
@Jessica Smiths And if in your case you would be making the same and moreover they will make same but will spend it to repay there student lone debt with interest so its a lot of them too
@@sarahjoe7276In residency you get 60,000$ per year and after completing it,you become board certified physician and can practice with making like 250k$ up to even 500k$ as it depends on the speciality.

Hi Manik!
Do u need to match into residency in us for fellowship (post residency in India) or is it only required to pass step 1&2?
It's only required to pass USMLE exams
Sir, I have taken 4 drops to get my neet ug seat at the semi-government college KJ somaiya college Navi Mumbai. Will it affect me in the usmle as I have already taken multiple drops is it considered a setback during selections?
no

I just had one more doubt I got mild essential tremors will it affect me in my psychiatry residency in usa or internal medicine?
@@hisokamorow4789 same I have essential tremors..can you share a bit of the story how you got them
Does this negatively affect students that go to Caribbean medical schools?
It does
I got a better idea !! Make step 2 and step 3 also pass/ fail!! Get rid of the can altogether !! I don’t think think it is right to stop a doctor from practicing medicine after graduating from medical school !!
How do they determine who is competitive for the tougher specialties?
Hello sir..can you recommend a good consultancy that will do all the application stuff so that I can concentrate on my studies..
By aiims,did u mean only aiims delhi?or also the peripheral aiims?
Hi sir, i wanted to ask if i can complete residency and fellowship consecutively on J1 and then apply for J1 waiver jobs. And do I need to complete both residency and fellowship within 5 yrs ?
Dr Manik, can we APPLY for Step 3 prior to receiving Step 2ck results? By that I mean if we have taken Step 2ck and are still awaiting the results. Or is it only possible to APPLY for Step 3after receiving the results? Thanks.
only after
when a program state (ECFMG-certified physicians and sponsors both J1 and H-1B visas for trainees) dose that mean only passing Step 1, CK and CS but not require step 3 ?
Thank you brother
After doing mbbs in india and after usmle process do we have to complete a pre med degree again called MD in usa which is equal to mbbs of India??
Plz reply
no
Hello bro.
Can you please tell me is there any role of reputated universites and normal Universites like where you studied in selection of USMLE or plab residential programs??????
Is EFMGC certificate alone is enough or they will choose candidates by reputation of the University where they studied ??
Actually I selected jalalabad state medical University, krygisthan. It has EFMGC certification. So I have this doubts
Hello i have posted this before on your another video but i really need help. So I hope you can see it and reply. I need some information.
I'm a 2nd year med student in bangladesh. I want to go to the USA after completing my MBBS here. But including everything, just the total cost of USMLE will cost me around 30-32 lakh/3-3.2 million BDT (30k-32k USD). And not to mention the cost of living in america. I need to be prepared with at least 40-45 lakh/4-4.2 million BDT (40k-42k USD). My parents will never let me go abroad. Firstly, they don't have that much financial ability to send me. And I myself hate it if i need to depend on my parents money. I already get to hear so many taunting for getting into a private medical college with their money. I don't want to be the loser in my parents eye anymore. Secondly, my parents are extremely restricting and toxic when it comes to every single step of my life. I've been going through so much depression for so many years due to them and society. I really need to get out of here. And it has always been my dream to study abroad. But it's not possible for me to earn 40-45 lakhs even if i try to earn money for 4 years through some part time jobs while studying and start working as a doctor after my study is complete. If I can't get out of here on my own, i will be forcefully married off by my parents. My life, my wish don't matter to them. They only care about what they want me to do and what achievement will make them more proud in society. My dream and whole life will be crushed. I really need to earn money or a scholarship for it. But is there any scholarship for medical students for studying abroad? Or is there any scholarship to bear the cost of the exam only at least? If there isn't any such option, what can i do? How can i earn? Or is there no way other than just leaving my life and dream and accepting the fate my parents will choose?
amazing video....
A lot of the hate on step1 pass/fail move sounds like it’s stemming from the old generation being butt hurt that all their insanely hard work and mental suffering they endured during their step 1 studies is know meaningless and the new doctors won’t have to bear the heavy burden of memorizing huge amounts of almost totally useless empty jargon.
Step 2 teaches you what you actually need to know and going to use as a doctor and you can ask any practicing physician at any point of time whether they used Kerbs cycle or most of the other nonsense they were unwisely forced to imprint on their souls. I so much hate step 1 and forever happy that it wont torment the young no longer. The application process will be a bit harder for a while especially for imgs but in the long run people will see the blessing of the non heavily mentally scarred and better clinically competent doctors thanks to step 2
Thanks for that
Hey, manik. I have been following you for quite sometime now. You are doing an amazing job for the upcoming match aspirants. I wanted to ask about YOG, you didnt mention in the video. Does it has an impact on getting interviews or the ROL?
It does but not as much as the other factors. Generally if you have a yog of more than 5 years, programs can filter you out.

Does MD Anesthesia residency help to get matched for Anesthesiology or other streams?
that depends. on one side some programs feel its extremely handy and shows commitment, while on the other hand some might not like it as you are an old grad (not so fresh with your medical knowledge) and you might not like taking orders from people younger than you
How does it make someone with an MD from another country appear as someone with not so fresh medical knowledge? That person has been in touch with medicine (whichever branch it is) and in particular clinicals and clinical exposure right.

How can i get residency in ob gy in usa?? After usmle?
Another reason why this is a terrible decision is because it's going to distract medical students from their studies. Now, as a way to stand-out, students realize they'd have to partake in things that are extra-curricular. Juggling those activities along with medical school is incredibly tough and stressful. This is going to lead to more mental fatigue. Student's won't be able to focus just on studies, which is going to have a negative impact.
Lmao bruh, if you just want a one dimensional exam-based path to residency, stay back in India only, no one is forcing you to pursue a US residency🤣🤦♂️
lmao look at the neet ug mindset still there
