Thank you for your concern, I am citizen, old graduate, but done residency back home, I don't have any preference, just one relatively fair to get in works for me. I can have contact, but only in areas of internal medicine. I have done all as shadowing. Thank you again.

you will be filtered out for attempts
you need to try and observe at some residency program so that they will know you on the personal level to give u chance
u also need some contacts.
just applying and hoping isn't enough
