I'm a third year MD student, US citizen, looking to practice in Canada (maybe Ontario) after completing residency and fellowship in the US.
As a US citizen, I know CARMS is out of the question, so I have to do NRMP / residency + fellowship in the US first.
My question is, should I take MCCQEs or not? Are there any pros / cons that are substantially different between these 2 options?
Option 1: take MCCQEs around the time of my USMLEs -> receive LMCC, look for jobs in Canada after fellowship
Option 2: not take MCCQEs -> work under supervision e.g. CPSO - Alternative Pathways to Registration
Thanks in advance for any advice!!
