Hi all
I need to find out some basic information on pursuing a medical career in US after finishing MBBS in India. I know that one has to clear USMLE I,II and CSA Exams before getting into a Residency Program.
My questions are:
1. How long approximately does it take usually to clear all these Exams(Assuming we clear in the first Attempt itself)?
2. How much does it cost for the whole process? I can check for the Exam fees etc on the USMLE site. But apart from that how much does it cost for attending the Residency School itself? What I want to find out is once you clear these exams and get a Residency, do you pay the School/Hospital or do you get paid?
3. How many years does it take to finish the Residency ? Or does it depend on the specialty one chooses?
Any help or input greatly appreciated.
Thanks
