The examination consists of USMLE Step 1, Step 2 Clinical Knowledge (CK), and Step 3. Step 1 evaluates understanding of basic medical sciences and is reported as pass/fail, while Step 2 CK assesses clinical knowledge and patient-care principles. Step 3 evaluates whether a physician can independently apply medical knowledge in clinical practice. After completing the necessary USMLE and application requirements, medical graduates can apply for residency training through the U.S. residency system. Residency specialties include Anesthesiology, Child Neurology, Dermatology, Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Internal Medicine-Pediatrics, Medical Genetics and Genomics, Neurological Surgery, Neurology, Nuclear Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Ophthalmology, Orthopaedic Surgery, Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, Pathology, Pediatrics, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Plastic Surgery, Preventive Medicine, Psychiatry, Radiation Oncology, General Surgery, Thoracic Surgery, Urology, and Vascular Surgery. Following residency, physicians may pursue numerous subspecialty fellowships such as Cardiology, Gastroenterology, Oncology, Endocrinology, Nephrology, Pulmonology, Critical Care, Rheumatology, Infectious Disease, and others.
