Emergency Medicine
Thanks again for this wonderful website.
I am a final yr mbbs student. I am interested in studying emergency medicine in the US.
I have scored 244/99 in step 1. currently involved in research with the Emergency department at our college.
Must I do a residency in Internal medicine before specializing in EM or can I do it directly? What chances do IMGs have of getting into EM residency?
Waiting for your reply.
Thanking you,
Sam
