Fellowships

Reply with quote

Hi
Im an IMG from Mumbai. Finished with my CS recently. My scores in step 1 and 2 are 99/99. I think I shall pass my CS.Have done my residency in Med from a reputed college/hospital in Mumbai.Wanted to do a fellowship in ID without going through residency again.My colleagues tell me this is next to impossible.Some consolation fm my teacher who tells me tht getting into a research fellowship may help if I can impress my mentor to leapfrog into clinical fellowship. I wanted a sincere opinion on that.Can someone help me? Has anyone heard of someone doing this?

you CANNOT do ID without going through residency.
