Hi, I read the thread about that lady which she graduated14 years ago,actually iam in same boat like her 10years graduation i have been tried since 3yrs no luck i am even wondring if they review the application coz this time i read every programs what thier requirements, i ask friend who is 10yrs graduation and several attempts in usmle exames ,and get accepted in that program,but i got rejection.so i am only wondering is there any problem in my application or just abad luck, I dont know. I even heard that they are trying to avoid accepting IMG and they prefer to leave the seat vacant instead of giving to IMG, I dont know if that true.
any way i need to know about army when i call few prorams they told me i need to be in active duty,what that mean?
Please advice.

If a program is not accepting applications from IMGs then u must not apply to that.It is better to apply to a different program instead.
The policies of the individual programs may change anytime but I don't think that may apply to all the programs.
Good Luck!

Ye, because Miltary programs require applicants to be US Citizens which a great majority of IMGs r not.
Good Luck!

To be in active duty may mean that one is currently serving in the Army.
Good Luck!
