my USMLE journey so far (IMG Step 2 + US Observerships)

Life update! This is what I've been up to for the past two months that I didn't upload. I went to New York, LA, and North Dakota to cram 2 exams and clinical observerships. Now I'm back in Manila, fixing the remaining requirements for residency application this September.

    Nakaka proud naman. My husband works here at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN. He is also in the Doctorate CRNA program here through Mayo Clinic. It has been a dream of him to become a CRNA and proud to say 4 more months he will be done and finally get his Doctorate degree. Hard work pays off and all your hard work will definitely pay off. Good luck on everything and sana you get the Residency here in the US and God will grant you what your heart desires.🙏

    Good pm doc! May I know more about training in the US? I will take step 1 on December but in all honesty, I'm not 100% into this plan yet as I'm not totally passionate about medicine and I'm also having second thoughts about leaving my family and my comfort zone here in the Philippines. My dad told me to take this and since I have a US passport, I just passively rode with this plan.

    PG24 I trained in anes. Make sure you have the right reasons why you are doing it. You are going to waste time, effort and money if you’re not whole-hearted in each step. You will get homesick, you will adjust to many things etc. The pros are you will really get good training, patients get “ideal” treatment, there is so much resource, humane duty hours.

I was really thinking about whether it was worth having 12-hour duties and the best training but at the cost of being away from family and doing everything else by myself. My dad always tells me to go all out on this USMLE plan since he says it is the best training, but I have always had my reservations. I was smart enough to pass med school without delays but I'm not exactly the high-achieving student type. Thank you again Doctor!
