IMGs from Angola for USMLE and Residency




Basically there is one medical school from which Angolan Doctors graduate before moving to the US for residency which is Universidade Agostinho Neto Faculdade de Medicina. Those physicians take the USMLE and get ECFMG certified then apply to the residency programs through the NRMP.
