USMLE to Residency

Abstract

For International Medical Graduates (IMGs) seeking
medical residency, the US offers an excellent platform.
The candidate must successfully pass Step 1 and Step 2
of the United States Medical Licensing Examination
(USMLE), pass Occupational English Test (OET), gain
valuable United States Clinical Experience (USCE), and
participate in the National Resident Matching Program
(NRMP). The costs involved throughout the process can
be quite daunting; therefore, careful financial budgeting
is recommended.
In this article, we go over the costs associated with
the various stages of the journey, such as registration
with the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical
Graduates (ECFMG), examinations, USCE, the Electronic
Residency Application Service (ERAS) season, and
finally, visa processing.
