USCE is required for most international residency applicants. How are they to get these experiences if there is no provision? Ideally we should review applications based on credentials and experiences in their home country, and provide a plan for transition during internship!

@SeeFisch It is unfair that IMGs are having to take Step 3, as almost a requirement. This is a medical licensing exam that should never have been a factor in the match. Programs should discourage such practice and evaluate the same way they evaluate other non IMG candidates.

The competitive nature of the US Residency system does not justify resorting to dishonesty during exams. Unfortunately, some individuals choose to circumvent the system, using improper means that have resulted in chaos.

Who feels well-prepared for taking care of the rapidly growing older population? the number of Americans aged 65+ is projected to jump from 46 million today to over 98 million by 2060, and the 65+ age group’s share of the total population will rise to nearly 24%.

@JudgeClayJ When caregivers/parents/guardians make decisions that harm vulnerable people such as those who are disabled and children, we call it “neglect”. Don’t neglect the vulnerable . Make the right decisions for them. That is your responsibility! #vaccinate   #MaskUp #SaveOurKids
