very old graduate! - ecg101 - ArchivalUser - 07-24-2014 Hello All, Based on my scenario below, I am asking for your insights for a hypothetical situation: - Very old graduate (1990) - MPH with 15+ years of US work experience (epidemiologist, federal employee for ~5 yrs); made some contacts - Diploma in Cardiology (UK) - ~20+ US publications (journals/abstracts/posters) in public health arena - Hypothetical scores (plan to write steps in ~2 yrs): Both Step I & II: (3-digit score: ~235, old 2-digit: ~95+) My question: Do I have a reasonable chance of getting an IM residency (plan to apply for matching in 2016)? Thanks in advance. 0 - ArchivalUser - 07-24-2014 there is no wrong in trying. go for usmle steps, try to get good scores and apply next year.
