How to apply & why to do Research before Residency

Sorry the recording got disconnected in the middle but I hope I made up for it by re-recording the latter portion. Research is a very important tool for match applicants to strengthen their CV for competitive specialties or to cover weak areas in their CV e.g. low scores, previous attempts. It is best to it after you have given your step exams or at least step 1. There are 2 main methods to apply for research. The less common method is the formal process which involves applying through institutions website if they have advertised open spots for research. The more common method is the backdoor process which involves looking for faculty in top institutions and sending them an email asking them for available spots. It can take around 6-18 months to get a spot and usually sending out 1000 emails might only get you around 2-3 positive responses from faculty. 0:00​ Introduction 0:11​ When to do research and when to apply for it? 0:29​ Why should you apply for research? 1:36 How do you apply for research? 1:54​ Formal application process 5:09​ Backdoor application process 9:45​ Does research help? 11:11 Thank you For more details, please visit the link http://www.mededia.com/node/62 Follow Dr. Tariq.   / umartariqmd     / umartariqmd     / umartariqmd   Follow Mededia   / mededia1     / mededia1     / mededia1
