Hi everyone! I’m a non-US IMG applying for the upcoming Match cycle.
Profile:
Step 1: Pass
Step 2 CK: 255+
ECFMG Certified
YOG: 2026
I’m trying to build my program list and would really appreciate suggestions for programs that would be a realistic fit for my profile.
Which programs would you recommend I research/apply to? I’d love to hear about them.
Edit No USCE , publications still under review

YOG 2026, no USCE, no publications, applying this upcoming Match cycle. Anyone else in the same boat? Let’s connect and help each other out throughout the process
Edit NON US IMG
Should I apply for the 2027 Match with:
YOG 2026
Step 1: Pass
Step 2: pass (255+)
No USCE
3 publications currently under review
Is it worth applying this cycle, or should I wait another year to gain USCE, get publications accepted, and possibly take Step 3?
I’d appreciate honest advice, especially from IMGs who matched with a similar profile.
Edit (non US IMG)
Hi everyone, I’ve just secured my BST (Basic Specialist Training) at St. Vincent’s University Hospital and am moving to Dublin. I’m in urgent need of a room/accommodation nearby (Dublin 4, 6, or along the DART line).
Looking for something budget-friendly as city prices are quite high. If anyone knows of local "Rent-a-Room" options, digs, or community groups that support healthcare workers, please let me know.
