IS IT STILL TOUGH TO BE A DOCTOR IN THE US?

Ho Tro 26/03/2025 No Comments

Is it still difficult to be a doctor in the US after finishing residency? After I recently shared the hidden corners of resident doctors in the US, someone messaged me and asked, “So after completing residency, will being a doctor in the US be less difficult?” Having personally gone through years of residency training in the US and now being a doctor officially working in the US, I also want to take this opportunity to share with you my perspective and experience so you can have more information. 1. Working time and personal life It is true that during residency training, resident doctors sometimes have to work up to 80 hours/week. I myself used to be very stressed and pressured about time and health. To be honest, the 3 years of residency were also the hardest time I have ever experienced in my entire life. But fortunately

THE DARK CORNER OF AMERICAN MEDICAL RESIDENCY

Ho Tro 23/03/2025 No Comments

The hidden corners of American medical residency You may often find yourself sharing about your American medical residency journey – golden opportunities and great benefits that it brings. But the truth is that this path is not only rosy, but also contains many hidden corners and is not suitable for everyone. Today, I want to tell you about those downsides, so you can consider more carefully before deciding to embark on this journey. 1. Time pressure and health American medical residency is not an 8-hour/day job. American resident doctors can work 80 hours/week, sometimes even up to 100 hours, depending on the specialty. A shift can last 24–28 hours, especially in specialties such as surgery or emergency medicine. Doctors may have to operate continuously, handle patients continuously, and sometimes only get a few hours of sleep on the sofa in the break room. In addition, working

Ho Tro 20/03/2025 No Comments

IF YOU DON’T HAVE 5 MILLION DOLLARS TO BUY A GOLD CARD, WHAT’S THE WAY TO BECOME A US CITIZEN? As expected of a leader with a business style, President Donald Trump – the world’s greatest salesman – has just announced that he will launch a new immigration program on February 25. Accordingly, Washington will launch an unprecedented type of immigrant visa, with a price of 5 million US dollars, called the “gold card.” Simply put, if you have 5 million US dollars, you can “buy” a US permanent resident green card, with the benefit of becoming a US citizen after 5 years like other green card holders. Also according to President Trump, this new visa will also replace the current EB-5 program from the beginning of March 2025. In the EB-5 program, you need to invest from a minimum of $800,000 to $1 million in a

Ho Tro 15/03/2025 No Comments

WHAT IS THE BIGGEST REASON WHY YOU GET A LOW SCORE AND FAIL THE USMLE STEP 1 EXAM? When you first learned about the medical residency path in the US in general and the USMLE Step 1 exam in particular, you probably went online and Googled questions like: “USMLE Step What is 1?

They share everything without “hiding” anything, from books, documents to review strategies… You take their advice, buy UWorld, First Aid, or Anki, and do exactly what they say. You believe that if you do exactly as they do, you will achieve the same results. But in reality, the results were not as expected.

WHAT SHOULD I INVEST IN 2025?

Ho Tro 11/03/2025 No Comments

WHAT SHOULD I INVEST IN 2025? Currently, the world is witnessing strong fluctuations on all fronts: global economic turmoil, political instability, and constant changes in other fields. Inflation is increasing, prices are escalating, and that is also the reason why the cash in your pocket is “evaporating” day by day. So, during this time, where should we keep our money and where should we invest it to both preserve capital, increase assets and create sustainable profits? 1. Challenges from traditional investment channels Stocks, bonds, gold, real estate, or business – popular investment channels, are all strongly influenced by external factors such as political fluctuations, economic crises, natural disasters, epidemics, and even strong changes in the technology era. For example, the stock market can grow strongly in one period, but can easily decline overnight due to unfavorable news. The fact that Deeseek blew away more than $1,000 billion
