What should AMGs do to increase their chances to match in Radiology?
During your medical school rotations try to schedule your electives mainly in radiology to get touch-base with the attendings so you will get LORs from them later on. Also you need a book to impress the faculty you are interacting with and increase your knowledge at the same time. Most people who match will have the **Learning Radiology: Recognizing the Basics**. During interviews, at most of them, you will be asked about radiology books you have read, and having the answer ready, as above, will further push your ranking up in the NRMP match.
What should IMGs do to increase their chances in matching in Radiology?
Doing observerships and getting US LORs is an important part of your ERAS application where program directors will be looking for such information.
We also strongly recommend that you have the same book as AMGs in your shelf, namely the **Learning Radiology: Recognizing the Basics** as above. Applicants are also differentiated based on the knowledge and their interest in the domain they are applying to, so be ready.
Also, IMGs should apply to the same programs where we helped their peers to match in the previous years, these programs are found in many states as described in the below mentioned list.
