hmmm well said csverysoon BUT I tend to disagree with H visa extension. You can only extend your H visa if your GC petition is pending for more than 365 days or you have filed for GC and then waiting for I 485 decision, not on any other basis... so it comes back to the same point if you are lucky enough to find a job during your residency and the employer is ready to sponsor GC than H is ok.
Other wise switch from H to J is not a bad thought.
hi freinds,

my views are getting reshaped now. i began with a feeling that i will only rank categoricals. but i got prelim calls from excellent programs and categorical from mediocares.

if we can't change from p to c smoothly than,......
i think after finishing prelim, we can join research on h1. and apply next year with full 1 year research and 1 year hands on usce.

if we take prelim on h1, we can always switch to j1 after 6 years limit( if nothing works out).

personally i can't see my self working at hospitals / specialties i don't like in the first place. i know we don't have much choice here but still..... i believe in calculated risk.

correct me guys if i am way off the track.

GL and happy holidays
well things only become more and more confusing. i am gonna take a break. adios for sometime.
Thanks a lot md03.
thanks csverysoon.
