huh?
The admis also apparently dont like the threads that are not-for-profit volunteer type ventures. Thanks to other more business minded members of the forum, lol. In any case, you guys know how to get in touch with me.
@tokillamokingbird, I am copying my answer from there to here,
I finished my final exam in 2006 and my internship in 2007.
But my diploma mentions 2006.
Does it mean "my YOG is 2006?"
[sadly, the YOG is whatever is mentioned on the diploma, most of the time it is issues a year later than end of internship, but in your case it seems somehow to have predated your internship. so yes it is going to be 2006]
step 1 - 98/234
step 2 - 92/223
step 2 cs - passed
All are first attempt
step 3 - going to take at the end of September
[good scores]
YOG - 2006 or 2007 (I am not sure)
[2006]
Extermship - 6 months at a clinic (Pediatric)
LOR - only one from that Pediatrician
[you have more LORs planned right? onely one is not going to be enough]
Need Visa
want to apply IM / Ped / FM
[i would say you have fair ok chance, based only on these numbers. get in touch with your peds physician and start cranking up your charm and get in touch with the folks you rotated at, these maneuvers will help you get interviews]
What is my chance? Should I take step 3 earlier?
[step 3 is a gamble that can seldom pay off. If you pass then it wont affect your chances per say, but you can make a case for Hib visa. If you score a 99, it may increase your interview chances a tad, however the BIG question is if you do poorly or fail, then you are worse off then than you are now. so that being said, decide on how prepared your are for step 3. If you plan of doing in, then any time before march 2012 should be good enough.]
Logging out now, goodluck guys. keep working on the applications and keep enhancing your CV till you have your residency contract in hand!
