i have a gap in cv.. like 1 n a half years.. in 2 of my ivs i was asked abt it to which i replied honestly tht i was studying for my steps .. m a very bad liar who can't make up things ... now i m worried to death that programs will not rank me coz of the gap.. i otherwise have a pretty good cv with 2 months electives n 10 months research experience n a very strong letter from my mentor which was mentioned to me by few of my interviewers..
please tell me if it is as bad as i am thinking it is :-(

I dont think it's as bad as you think. What could you possibly tell them to cover gap in your cv? and then, you could show evidence of what you told them. Lying may seem like a short way to answer these questions but at the end, honesty pays more. That's what I think. But I'm totally naive to this.
any comment will be welcomed

Hi,
I have research positions available in different states and in different (sub)specialties which include cardiology, endocrinology, pulmonary, surgery, sleep medicine, and neurology. The states include PA, NY, IL, MI, MD and TX at this point. The majority of the positions are in universities, and some of them are in universities that are among the top 10 in the U.S. You can contact me for details.
If you're looking for a different state or (sub)specialty, I can help too. I just need you to be specific and help me understand what you’re looking for.
If interested, contact me at matissiti. Provide some brief info about yourself, your visa status, your USMLE scores, what (sub)specialty, which state, when you want to start and for how long.
In the subject, please mention what you’re looking for. For example: “Endocrine research in Chicago.”
Thank you.
