Rating: - An excellent all around guide for foreign graduates ...
This book is easy and very informative reading; it can be read in an evening. It covers all the essentials for international medical students and graduates, from visas to residency. There is much sound advice on taking the various exams, including how to prepare, when and where to take them and reasons for failure as well as some very interesting statistics on the pass rates. The chapters on obtaining a residency were likewise good, but left an element of suspense as to what the probabilities of success are.
