Meet Jarred! Pediatric Residency candidate 2021. Jarred is from Canada and is a 2021 graduate of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. He has a 221 in his USMLE Step 1, and a 231 in his USMLE Step 2CK. He is looking for a J-1 Visa. He wants to be a Pediatrician
S – USMLE Step 1 221, USMLE Step 2CK 231
U – No US Clinical Experience
V – J-1 Visa
Y – 2021 Graduate
Applying to all 210 Pediatric Residency Programs would be a waste of resources and time and effort if, for example, he applied to programs that simply don’t offer J-1 Visas, or to programs that have minimum USMLE score cut-off requirements that his scores don’t meet.
Instead, Jarred needs to compare his SUVY against real-world data regarding Pediatric Residency Programs to target only those programs for which he is actually competitive.
S = Score USMLE U = US Clinical Experience V = Visa Y = Year of Graduation. By Entering his SUVY into IMGPreps search box Jarred will be provided a customized IMG Friendly Pediatric Residency list. Jarreds Pediatric Residency Program List will also denote which pediatric residency Programs have current residents / Alumni from RCSI Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. The customized residency program list will also tell Jarred the percent of IMGs in each pediatric residency program.
