For an International Medical Graduate (IMG), obtaining a medical residency in the U.S. Is as competitive as it is important. Some residency programs make it a pre-requisite for an applicant to have clinical experience in order to apply to their program.
We also tried out the Q-Maxx industrial strength rust solvent. Mblaq mona eq.ur 250ql(gq). 'Shake well, it says apply and leave on product for 2 minutes,' said Ford. 'I have a gun with me on the farm every day we always carry a 22 in case we come up on something,' said Ford. He hopes this Q-Maxx cleaner will get rid of the residue in the barrel and chamber. Ford uses a cleaning product and a separate oil to lubricate his gun.
Interview invitations are sent out during the week of October 15th. We will not provide application statuses until after our invitations are sent out.
