The IMG Series: Interview with Internal Medicine Resident Dr. Jerald Pelayo || The Hungry IMG

Published 2021-10-08
In today's episode, I chat with Dr. Jerald Pelayo, a Filipino non-US IMG and PGY3 in Internal Medicine at Einstein Medical Center. He talks about his experience preparing for the USMLEs, the impact research can have on your application, his visa status, how he thinks the Step 1 PASS/FAIL scoring system will affect IMGs, what his program looks for in potential applicants, what he found to be the most difficult part of his USMLE journey as an IMG, and so much more!
