J1 Waiver Gastroenterology Jobs
I’m a Canadian on a J1 visa in my second year of GI fellowship training. I’ve started browsing for jobs but I’ve quickly realized it’s quite overwhelming if you don’t exactly know what you’re looking for. Any tips or suggestions would be helpful.

Canadian vs. US CASPer Evaluation
Hi all, I took the Canadian (English) CASPer two days after I took the US one. I was surprised that I scored two quartiles more in the US exam than in the Canadian one. Does anyone else share this experience? What do you think were the differences in evaluation between the two versions?
For context, I went to middle school in Québec and graduated from HS and college in the States. (Source: Student Doctor Network)
