Diversity Essay Topic Help & Immigrant Father
Hi all,
I'm debating on whether to mention in secondary essays that my father is from South Africa. He immigrated here in the 80s, and his nationality is part of my culture; I grew up eating babotie and South African pancakes and other foods, taking part in some traditions, and learning some Afrikaans. I learned about the immigration process and my dad's experiences adjusting to a new culture. This seems like a natural thing to talk about in diversity essays.
My qualm with mentioning this...

Foreign trained dentists and OMS
Hello friends and colleagues.
I recently posted in a different forum, but I thought I would post something here as it might make for an interesting discussion. like you all, I'm a foreign-trained dentist (South Africa), and I have recently been accepted into a qualifying program in Canada. I'm wondering if there are any foreign dentists here on this forum that have completed a qualifying program, either in Canada or the US, and then gone on to do a residency in oral maxillofacial surgery...

OMS 13 Month Battle Plan
Hello friends and colleagues.
I apologize for the essay I'm, about to unleash on you, but I hope you will indulge me.
A bit about myself: I'm originally from South Africa where I trained as a dentist. I'm now based in Canada, where I've spent the past few years slogging through the Canadian boards for foreigners (i.e. the "Equivalency Process"). I somehow managed this while simultaneously hustling on the wrong side of the chair as a certified dental assistant- all while juggling my family...

Are medical trips worth it?
Have the option to go to South Africa to do some medical work with fellow classmates for 2,700 bucks, Himalayas for 5,000 bucks, peru for 3,000 bucks, and some others. Like most students, I don't have a lot of money....I love traveling and could definitely see it being fun, but am I missing out if I don't go on these trips? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

PGY1 - Partially matched for Radiology 2017.
Desperately seeking to be taken in to any PGY1 position for the upcoming July 2016 cycle.
I have matched into my long and hard fought for dream residency in Radiology for 2017, but unfortunately did not get as much as a single interview for a prelim spot.
I am in IMG, which I understand makes my visa requirement less than ideal; but I believe having had a wide range of experience obtained working in a combination of 1st world/3rd world setting in South Africa, coupled with desirable work...
