IMG Success Story: Anesthesiology Match! "You Are Not Your Step Scores"

Cynthia is an IMG who matched into anesthesiology at Rutgers, NJMS. She graduated from medical school in 2018 from Warwick Medical School in the UK, worked for a year, took some time off and then applied for Match 2021. As a Non-US IMG, she felt all odds were against her. But she Matched into her #1 choice and wants to serve as hope for all the IMGs looking at applying. “If I can do it, so can you!!"
