Hey all , i am a Canadian green card holder currently studying in the middle east in a university which is accredited by the FAIMER website and all , and it the system here is a 6-year system and i am currently in my 5th year .
I am willing to go to Canada after i finish since i am aiming at getting a surgery position at a respected institute in Ottawa, Vancouver or Montreal.
I have a couple of questions :
1. What is the procedure for getting a Canadian License , i know there's an mccee and mccq1 and mccqe2 but i don't know the chronological order of these exams ..... so can i like take MCCEE and get a position only according to that and after am hired i take MCCQE or what? So basically i need to know how long the process takes from the first exam till i am hired ?
2. Being a Canadian IMG , what are my chances of getting a Surgery residency in any of the above-mentioned areas ?
3. What are the recommended books for studying for the exams and is it any harder that USMLE Step 1 or 2
