If you are going for anything other than FP, IM, or Psych, you will need these traits.
here..thanks for saying the complete truth about residency, because i havent got encouraging answers as pertaining to foreigners doing clinicals in US, i think only a few get to do residency there, so please brother if you were in my shoes as a foreigner, where would you advise for residency? UK or Carribeans even, cos i need anywhere apart from africa.(where i come from)

i am coming to windsor this May after doing 3years in my nigerian medical school...please help.
i started my disscussions with valuemd and hope to end it here without searching other sources cos you guys have been great here.
thanks.
