In the era of technology what is getting eroded is the old-fashioned family system. Traveling or holidaying with the family is one sure way to ensure being connected and bonded with each other. It is so true that families that holiday together stay together.
What services does Residency Success provide?
We support you with complete services for the entire application process of Residency or Fellowship training. Please see About Us section for detailed information.

Although we support doctors all over the world, we do offer our services to guide American graduates as well.
How is Residency Success different from other agencies which provide similar services?
- We offer “one-on-one” personalized services via video chat with a doctor that has been in the process of the American application system.
- We tailor services specific to your strengths & weaknesses, no cookie-cutter service for all. Our doctors have been trained to help you with key specifics in the application process.
How do you tutor for USMLE Steps?
- A doctor from our team meets you via video chat and personalizes the process of approaching the exam according to your current knowledge base.
- We work on your question strategy and teach you to identify patterns, as that is where most students lack basic knowledge.
- We help you pick the correct answers as our staff has previously written questions for leading test prep resources.
- This boosts most people’s scores by at least 10-20% on their question banks.
- We help you master the art of reading between the lengthy question stems & tailor your study skills and habits.
What is your approach to the interviews?
We have a psychological approach to assisting you. Then we systematically help you build interview skills based on your knowledge & background. We make it very interactive and also ask you to be reflective of your skills. We then hone your basic IV skills, behavioral IV skills, clinical IV questions. We also offer personalized key tips to target the location of the interview (ex. Michigan, Brooklyn, etc), all specific to the program directors that will be assisting you!
Do you conduct mock interviews?
- Yes, it is a part of the process of the interview Bootcamp
- We do “one-on-one” mock interview sessions over video chat, especially helpful since most interviews in the COVID-19 era are conducted online!
What will you help us with, besides the ERAS application process alone?
We offer motivational coaching for doctors who have been in your shoes, contact us for guidance and plans.
How do you help us with Personal statements and CVs?
Once we receive your documents, we review your submitted documents. We then set up a virtual video meeting with you for 30 mins, to learn more about you, your background and add important details about your life, work, and clinical experience to create more of a holistic document. Your document is then converted into a google drive shared document where you will updated all the changes being made. Initial edits on the document will be made together whilst being on video call. This is the way we will communicate with us throughout the editing process. As we say it, its an **interactive process** with us!
Do you provide services until the MATCH results?
Yes, it is up to you how we structure the time we spend together.
How do you host these personalized sessions?
