Can u help me with these NY programs(same as in thanks msg)

Hey there, I could get hold of only these.These are for mInternal medicine only as that is what I am interested in. NYMC(Our lady of Mercy) We accept all qualified candidates, including US graduates, IMGs and Fifth Pathway students. US citizens and permanent residents (?green card? holders) are preferred; however, we are willing to sponsor H-1 visas for excellent candidates who have passed Step 3 of the USMLE. In general, candidates who require visas may be considered for pre-match contracts, in order to give the candidate ample opportunity to complete the paperwork necessary to obtain the visa. At this time, we are not sponsoring candidates for J-1 visas. What is the minimum USMLE score you accept? Generally, we seek candidates who have approximately mid 80s or above on both parts. Although occasional exceptions can be made, it is unusual for us to interview any candidate who does not have at least one USMLE score in the 80s or above. Does the year of medical school graduation matter? Yes. We prefer candidates who have graduated from medical school within the past 4 years. However, we do consider many candidates who have had continuous clinical experience or contact since graduation. Those who have not had recent clinical contact should ideally undergo a period of ?observership? in a US hospital prior to beginning a residency. Do you require clinical experience in the United States? This is ?optional? but obviously highly desirable. Familiarity with the US health care system is an obvious asset. Candidates who have completed an observership are viewed more favorably. Do you accept applications by mail? No. All applications must be processed through ERAS. We receive a large number of applications, and it is not possible for us to respond to answer individual requests about the ?status? of a specific application. We also do not send any ?rejection? notices to candidates who are not called for an interview. (see below) What is the deadline for submission of applications? Interviews are normally held between October and January. Applicants should submit all their information via ERAS as soon as the system opens, usually in July. We begin the review process in September, and generally continue to download applications from the ERAS Post office until about November 1, or until all the available appointments for interview have been taken. Please remember that we receive as very large number of applications, and it is not possible to interview more than about 15% of the candidates. How many letters of recommendation are needed? At least three letters are required by ERAS. For our purposes, these should be from US based clinicians who can comment on the candidate?s overall skills and potential for success in a residency. The letters must be submitted through ERAS. Letters submitted through the mail or in any other format will not be accepted. Is ECFMG certification necessary? For all IMGs, ECFMG certification is necessary prior to the beginning of the residency. This includes Steps 1 and 2 of the USMLE exam, and the CSA (Clinical Skills Assessment). What about fellowships? There are three fully accredited fellowships based at OLMMC, including gastroenterology, geriatrics and hematology/oncology. In addition, fellows in Cardiology from St Vincent?s Hospital (NYC) and Nephrology from Metropolitan (NYC) rotate through OLMMC. What is your academic affiliation? We are a University Hospital affiliated with New York Medical College. Do residents have opportunities to participate in research? All residents are strongly encouraged to submit a research project as a means of complying with the ACGME requirement for scholarly activity. Appropriate guidance and faculty supervision are readily available to facilitate the process. Many of our previous and current residents have participated in presentations at national and regional meetings, and a considerable number have contributed to publications in peer-reviewed journals. Are there medical students at OLMMC? Third-year students from New York Medical College may have their Medicine clerkship at OLMMC. Second year NYMC students may come to OLMMC for their physical diagnosis course. Physician Assistant (PA) students also frequently rotate at OLMMC as part of their education. Where do your residents go after the residency? Approximately 50-55% of our residents ultimately enter primary care practices, with the remainder entering subspecialties. Do the residents take any examinations? The incoming PGY-1 residents take a series of exams in August, based on introductory lecture material. The PGY-2 and 3 residents take monthly exams in various subspecialties and special topics. All residents are required to take the annual ACP in-training exam held in October. How are residents evaluated? This is a continuous process. Residents are evaluated by their peers as well as by their superiors and teachers. Monthly written evaluation forms are submitted to the Department of Medicine corresponding to performance on each rotation, as well as in the Clinic (OPD) When do I find out about promotions? In order to qualify for promotion, residents must demonstrate an overall satisfactory performance in all the competencies, as defined by ACGME (see evaluation form). Promotions are announced no later than December 15th; however, in the majority of cases, residents are told several weeks prior to that date. Does the program sponsor any social events? There is an annual holiday party held in December, and an annual graduation party held in June. Are there any special awards or recognition? ?Praise cards? may be given at any time in order to document any exceptional or noteworthy performance. At graduation, awards are given in a variety of categories, including a Best Resident?s award for each year, Best Teacher awards, and Humanitarian Award. More recently, we introduced awards for exceptional overall performance for the first half of the academic year. In addition, there is an annual Research Contest, featuring projects by residents at all levels, who are eligible for various prizes, depending on the quality of their contributions.
