ems1234 Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 Hi! I am a Canadian M4 applying for IM and thinking about future career planning. I was wondering if anyone could offer any personal insights or point me towards any good resources online regarding the process of applying to the American IM subspecialty match as I wasn't able to find much information on this (I did read through the recent thread). Specifically: 1. Is the USMLE Step 1,2 CK and CS required? If they are required is a "pass" all is that required to be competitive or can programs see your scores and take these into account for accepting applicants? Is there a centralized resource which lists each program's requirements? 2. Is there an American 'Royal College Exam-equivalent' that applicants would be required to take before applying to their subspecialty match? 3. Are there any other American-specific requirements that may not be obvious to a Canadian applicant? 4. Would it be possible to come back to practice in Canada after GI/ subspecialty residency or would there be any barriers to this? Thanks in advance!
