Interne en médecine concours internship, competitive; medical intern in a competitive program Explanation: (None of the other meanings of concours, such as "assistance", fits here.) By the way, I think "interne" is intern, not resident. The two are different. Internship comes first. |

First year of medical studies Explanation: Or, completion of first year of medical studies. After this there is a competition (see link) for selection of specialization. Not sure you need to translate concours (referring to the competitive exam). Reference: http://www.kevinmd.com/blog/2009/11/training-doctor-france-d... |

medical intern, examination (year): 1986 Explanation: The "concours" is basically a competitive exam in France and I believe that in many other countries, there is also an exam at the end of the internship year for medical students. So I would translate concours as examination. A comma between interne en médecine and concours would help. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2012-08-04 06:35:08 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The reason for writing concours and not exam is because in medical schools in France the exams are competitive. When I was a student in France, I do remember medical students referring to their "concours" and I assume that within the medical profession in France it is common practice to mention "concours" in a CV. |
