These tips are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Be proactive during hospital experiences<\/strong>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Make every experience during your rotation count. Don\u2019t be a student who just hopes for an average evaluation. Some medical colleges have research and development departments, spend some time there. Don\u2019t be shy to ask for help and guidance. Proper guidance will help you to choose your specialty.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ace your exams<\/strong>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There is nothing better than performing well in your exams. Your scores will always speak for you in the future. So, create a solid plan during your preclinical years to score high in USMLE exams.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Schedule your rotations meaningfully<\/strong>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For electives, you should request for hospitals which accept foreign graduates in their programmes. If your medical school has compulsory internship not related to the specialty you are applying for, schedule them after the application season.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Join groups which share common specialties<\/strong>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Learning through conferences and meetings is a better way of getting experience. The exposure you gain through conference will surely give you confidence, and much more. Besides that, they also have some programmes where they help students network with programme directors and other experienced graduates. These events will help you learn more about the specialty you want to have your residency in.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2349\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2349\" class=\"wp-image-2349 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/editing.internationaldentistcentral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/conference-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"people standing around a laptop on a conference call\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/editing.internationaldentistcentral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/conference-200x134.jpg 200w, https:\/\/editing.internationaldentistcentral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/conference-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/editing.internationaldentistcentral.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/conference.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2349\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Attend training and conferences<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you an international graduate desiring to practice medicine in the United States?
