Hi everyone and congratulations to everyone who matched. If I wanted to apply to pathology, what kind of USCE should I have? Till now I have been focussing on FM and have a few months of externship in FM. How do I get USCE in pathology? And do I have to have published papers to be a good candidate?

Basically, how does an IMG with zero experience in path get started in applying to a residency in pathology?

@somebodynobody
You're not alone. I'm nervous about starting residency too. I have no experience in Pathology aside from my rotations in medical school many many years ago and a CP rotation in the US a couple of years ago. I am trying to finish step 3 before residency so as not to get distracted with it during training. Is there anything I can read to help me understand at least the very basics of pathology training, grossing.... etc. |
