I read on program applications requirements.
And, One says that You should be less than 5 year. And, should have graduate no earlier than 2008
on the forums people are saying they count till the day residency begins.
If someone graduated Dec,2010 It would 3 years or four years?

@awen I don't think so, I agree with the above post for YOG calculation. The experience that may be considered is US clinical experience.
