I just hope to make it past that stage. All that I need is the 90 +, but if it's below that, I will just grab the best of the leftovers

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.

hey thanks for that link, i actually know that nigerians study over here and write usmle and get residency, but its few students that get through easily, and they studied at the best medical schools in nigeria.
and the truth is that my present school is not stable and have accrediattion probs which come on and off though, and also instead of graduating in 6th year, my school has a pile of student batches due to late accreditation, meaning most of us graduate later than speculated time, as there are three batches of final year students.(and imagine its a private school)

so what i wanna see are suggestions and informations concerning options i have after studying at windsor? and not backward....because i have made up my mind to leave the school.
