sa harlem ako johimd. ewan ko bkit ako namatch d2, 3 lng kameng pinoy this yr, but previously 7 ang kinuha nila. i guess this match season maraming pinoy ulit kukunin nila. Ndi ko alam kung ano ang criteria ng harlem for ranking. But as long as mainvite ka sa IV, galingan mo n lng. Good luck.

hi!tanong lang sa mga kababayan: is it ok to apply to programs that have a 5 year requirement for graduation year kahit na more than that pa ang grad date ko? i have been doing research then RN work these past years. if you can give me some insight about this. i dont want to waste money applying to those programs na wala naman akong pag-asa but then i am not really sure. thanks ulit!

Is there any one here who matched to the TTU HSC Lubbock Fam Med program last year? May itatanong lang po sana ako privately. Salamat.

doc harry,

do they strictly follow their criteria there in HHC? like years from grad, min scores in the USMLE, etc? salamat.

hello pinoy,

MCU 03 grad,done step 1/2/CS..scared to apply because of my 4x attempt in step 1...most of the residency program only accept 3 attempt...kaya very hopleless ako...I'm working as a medtech right now pero hinahanap hanap ko pa din ang pagme med..what do you guy think or suggestion about my situation? Considering that i have 3 kids, my husband just finished his residency as FM and most of our friends sez that ill just focus on my kids..I'm so confused..please help..

thanks doc harry. but aside from being >5 yrs from grad take 2 kasi ako sa step1 and 2 CK plus below 80 yung step 1 ko. should I still try applying at HHC?

i will be applying to IM, FM and Psych all over the US. priority ko ang NYC because my significant other is doing her training there.

salamat.

doc harry,

correction, yung 2 CK pala yung below 80.

thanks

hopeless09,

i think it's worth trying. what's the worst thing that can happen? it's just not getting matched, right? but if you do get matched, then that would be great.

best bet would probably be your husbands former program. he can probably get you an interview there at the very least.

just my 2 cents...
