The AMC is doing a 10minute survey about IMG experiences. This would be a great opportunity to give feedback about the process. An example being the perceived lack of transparency in their scoring system in the clinical exam. Link below. amc.org.au/news-and-updat…

Several people have reached out to me recently asking for advice on the clinical exam. Soon, I will provide a peek into my study methods and strategies that helped me pass the exam in one go. I understand the anxiety and I'll do my best to help where possible.

Happy New Year, mates. Another year for us to live the dream down under. I have recently learnt about an auxiliary pathway. Short-term skill pathway. There's quite a few specialist IMGs here on this pathway. It does not, however, lead to general registration. 🫤

As a Specialist IMG , here is a pathway. Do your AMC 1, do your English exam Apply for registrar jobs in your specialty. Whilst working, learn from your specialist colleagues what the college would be looking for in the specialist assessment. Apply for assessment.

So many questions about WBA(Work Based Assessment) programme and how it works for IMGs. Is it objective? How long is the waiting list? How much does it cost? Must I do a rotational job? I'll write a thread about it soon.

Another thing I've been asked to talk about is salary transparency. How much does one truly earn in Australia as a doctor at different levels, and is it worth it,financially, to make the jump across the pond?

I'm glad to see some many of the guys I've mentored get their first jobs in Australia. If you have completed AMC 1, this would be an ideal time to apply for work. 1/2

lnkd.in/p/dkMEPWAi Conversations about IMGs and their hurdles are being had. We need to have more IMG perspectives in these meetings. What do you think?
