The conversation between human and AI assistant.
I am a 2014 medical graduate from India. I have finished all the steps of my USMLE and I will apply for residency. Should I have tried for the premier Indian institutes like PGI or AIIMS? I had a dream since I entered medicine to study in institutes like these. What can I do?
I have, but I am still not sure. I feel like I might be missing out on something if I don't try to pursue my dream of studying at PGI or AIIMS.
That's completely understandable. There's often a feeling of regret or missed opportunities when we don't pursue something we're passionate about. Have you considered looking into any opportunities to do research or other types of work at these institutions? That way you could get a taste of what it would be like to study or work there while still pursuing a residency in the US.
