Motivation Monday ✨

Dr. Sarang Choi’s path is a true example of resilience and adaptability. A Korean citizen who grew up in the Philippines, studied in the U.S., and completed medical school in the Philippines, Sarang now continues her journey as a PGY-2 Internal Medicine resident. Her story reflects the determination and global perspective that so many IMGs bring to the residency process.

Reminder: Programs can’t see applications until Sept 24. Submitting early doesn’t give you an edge, but submitting a polished application does.

📝 ERAS Tip: Don’t overlook your hobbies. They may be a small part of your ERAS application, but they can leave a big impression. Be specific about what you do and why you enjoy it. Your hobbies can spark conversations and make your app stand out. #IMGSupport #MatchAResident

[Match A Resident® @MatchAResident]

FYI IMGs: Intealth is launching MyIntealth this August. Old systems retire Aug 14. New platform goes live 4–6 days later. Vist https://t.co/cBS1wRhx5D for more details.
