BridgeIMG is specifically designed for International Medical Graduates by successful IMG physicians. Our platform integrates basic science with clinical application (IM² framework), provides IMG-specific application strategies, and offers a supportive community and mentorship network. We focus on the unique challenges IMGs face in the residency application process.
Yes! Our core curriculum, community hub, and many resources are completely free. We offer premium features like personalized mentorship matching, advanced analytics, and premium question banks for those who want additional support. Our mission is to make high-quality residency preparation accessible to all IMGs.
Our Match Confidence Index (MCI) algorithm is based on analysis of NRMP data and successful IMG profiles from the past 5 years. While it provides a data-driven estimate of your match chances, it's important to remember that many factors contribute to a successful match. The simulator is designed to identify strategic areas for improvement rather than guarantee match outcomes.
Our mentorship program connects you with successfully matched IMG physicians based on your specialty interests, background, and goals. After creating a profile, our matching algorithm suggests compatible mentors. You can then schedule regular sessions to receive personalized guidance on your application strategy, interview preparation, and career planning.
We provide resources and mentorship for all major specialties, including Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Pediatrics, Psychiatry, Surgery, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Neurology, and more. Our curriculum is designed to cover the core knowledge needed for all USMLE steps, while our specialty-specific resources help you tailor your application to your chosen field.
We continuously update our content to reflect the latest USMLE changes, NRMP data, and residency application trends. Our medical education team reviews all content quarterly, and we incorporate feedback from our community of IMGs and mentor physicians to ensure our resources remain relevant and effective.
Our team is here to help you on your journey to U.S. residency.
