US ELECTIVES

At AMO, our mission is to create educational equality by arranging medical electives in the USA for international & domestic medical students, graduates, and trainees. 

These medical electives are created through partnerships with U.S. physicians, institutions, and hospitals with the belief that IMGs play an important part in improving the U.S. healthcare system. 

Medical electives are an essential step towards pursuing a career in the U.S. healthcare system, for the Match, and for medical school. They can cultivate valuable medical, professional, and communication skills. They can also provide clinical knowledge and skills that may be useful when taking the USMLE Step 2 CK or CS.
