I had the chance to attend to the Miami 2024 IMG Project event, it was my first experience and I loved it. I want to thank Dr. Sebas and all the people that helped to create this space were IMGs can unit and support each other. I would love to attend the NY event! Date of experience: April 06, 2024
For over 16 years, I have supported IMGs on their journey toward attaining medical residency in the U.S. During this time, I have not encountered an organization more devoted to supporting the international medical student community. They provide accessible platforms for networking, development, and career advancement that are unparalleled. I have attended two conferences and they were some of the best students conferences I have been to. Date of experience: April 05, 2024 The speakers were truly exceptional and knowledgeable, providing valuable insights and sharing their experiences with the attendees. They covered a wide range of topics related to the USMLE, including exam strategies, study materials, and exam-taking tips. Their presentations were engaging and thought-provoking, providing attendees with a deeper understanding of the USMLE and how to approach it. What made the event particularly impressive was its interactive nature. Attendees had the opportunity to interact with each other and the speakers, sharing their own experiences and asking questions. It was wonderful to see people from different parts of the world coming together and exchanging knowledge and insights. As someone who attended the event, I found it to be very well planned and executed. The organizers did an excellent job of creating a welcoming and inclusive environment that fostered learning and networking. I had the chance to meet many new people and make new connections, which was truly inspiring. Overall, I would highly recommend "Theimgevent" to anyone interested in the USMLE. It was a great opportunity to learn from experts, meet new people, and gain insights into how to approach the USMLE Date of experience: April 16, 2023
I have had the unique honor of not only being a part of the Project IMG and its sister organization, The IMG Event, but also being a committee member and executive organizer who was able to witness how much these organizations have grown since their inception. I can speak from first hand experience that Dr. Sebastian Arruarana, the Founder of both organizations, genuinely wants to help International Medical Graduates (IMGs) and tirelessly works hard to advocate for and create more opportunities for IMGs all around the world. Project IMG and The IMG Event form a comprehensive network, both online and in person, offering a sense of community, unity, and support for IMGs. Project IMG has diligently provided resources, information, and awareness about the USMLE journey and the MATCH process. Meanwhile, The IMG Event serves as a platform for IMGs from around the globe to connect, network, and engage with esteemed figures in the medical field, through events held nationally and internationally. Together, these organizations address a large yet often overlooked population in the US medical education system: International Medical Graduates. Project IMG and The IMG Event are invaluable resources for any IMG seeking knowledge, connections, and the opportunity to advocate for others on the same journey. Date of experience: April 28, 2024

I loved the initiative of organizing a mega event such as an IMG meet up in a small town such as Vadodara, Gujarat. It gives the Indian IMG the much needed camaraderie and support to work towards their goal via this long and arduous journey. Seeing successful people and listening to their stories is just the boost of motivation we need. Love being a part of this community and loved volunteering for this event. Hoping to be a part of the organizing team next time! Kudos to Dr Sebastian for bring us IMGs together 🥺❤️ Date of experience: April 15, 2023
