I'm an old graduate IMG, this is my second year applying to a residency position without success I got 3 interviews each year in family med and internal med . My 7 yrs limit to take all my step 3 in 2 yrs and 5 months. I have been studying for 1 month just UW and MB with a average of 50%. I have 3 part time jobs as a medical assistant/clinical instructor and scribe in 2 different medical and lecturer in a local University, I really feel overwhelmed, I am married and I have a daughter. My father is dying colon cancer stage 4 since 8 months ago. I been praying a lot but no response yet. I really don't know what to do or how to act I feel hopeless. My dream is to become a really good Dr to help people. I need an advice please guys I never posted nothing here please if somebody have similar issues please share and lets motivate each other. Thank you

I think you have been doing well..Just focus on one area which I would say family medicine. Write SOP where you tell what you went through. And def. your 3 jobs will help you alot..you have a good profile to be family physician i would say

Finish step 3..and definitely clear in one go
How old a graduate r u? and wats ur status?
If very old i would advise o target a program which offers residency in say family/IM and also gives obsies or externship/research opportunties and has a history of taking those who did work there..it would be better than aiming at too many targets and anyhow it would act as USCE even if it didnt work out at that place
Build contacts no matter how..frnds frnds frnds or watever..some ppl have even went to Family med conferences to get introduced to doctors and build from there.. but yeah they wld cost money i guess and not sure if its ideal for u...
Hope u r getting paid at the places work or else u r better off looking for a paid research position.especially wid the responsibilities u have

Thank you for your words omalizumab890. 2006 graduate. Definitely I will follow your advice. I have several contacts in several residency programs but they just want step 3 and that's the only excuse they give me. So right now I need to focus to pass it. Thank you for motivate me.
