    Very helpful video. I have a question. Since things are going to change from 2024, if I get ECFMG certification now , can I give step exam 2 years later? How long will the ECFMG certificate be valid?

      I appreciate your comment. Yes, you should be able to appear in step 1 after 2 years as you have already applied for the ecfmg certification before 24. For more confirmation, please contact ecfmg.

    Very grateful for such a detailed explanation! I would like to ask you about the date I entered medical school, does that have to be filled with the day I passed my entrance exam to medical school? Or when I actually started going to classes, because I started going to the university several months after my entrance exam. Thanks in advance!

Should I pay for my q banks and other studying materials by February and start studying, and by the middle of the year i apply for the eligibility period? Im just trying to plan the studying schedule/timing.
    Thanks for all the instructions videos!

    Hey man thank you for such a great video. I am wondering, if I already applied and passed step 1 (and obviously go over the verification process and credentials by my medical school), Once I apply for step 2 ck, ECFMG will request for Medschool verifitacation again, or it just go straightforward and send the permit?

    • @nomemorization1128
      @nomemorization1128  2 года назад

      My pleasure. No, once it is verified, you are done. For step 2, you just need to pay the exam fee. No further verification, particularly if you are graduate.

      Hello, I appreciate your comment. So, during the application, it will show the next 6 months as your eligibility period, you have to choose 3 months from that. For example, if you apply now, it will show you Jan -June or Feb-July. If your verification process goes fast and the Prometric center has a spot, it is possible.

    Thank you for your great videos.
    I did the form 186 and received E.mail that it was accepted and that I can apply for the exams ,
    My question is that after 2024 ,if my medical school is not eligible (accredited) any more for ecfmg criteria, can I do the application for the examination after 2024 (as I finished the form 168 already) , or I have to do the application for the exam before 2024 ?
    In other words , are the new regulations of 2024 (regarding the medical schools accreditation) will affect the graduated doctors who finished the form 168 or not , so if there medical schools didn't achieved the ecfmg criteria of 2024 can they apply for the examination after 2024 as they have already form 168 accepted ?

      I suggest applying for one exam at a time. This is because, if there is any change in your plan and in life, you may not appear the second one So why would you waste money here? The second point is, that apply for the first exam is time-consuming, not the rest of the exams, because all your documents will be ready.

      You do not need to be sorry, this channel is to help you, ask any question you want. anyway, Whatever you have on your Medical diploma, that's what you need to put as the title of medical degree as it will be returned to your medical school and it needs to be matched. If you have any confusion the best way is to contact ECFMG and your medical school. Hope it helps.

      Hi. @nomemoriztion1128 The title of medical degree should be in English or in my native language? Since it says "exactly as it appears"

    Hi, I did the notarization of form 186 with the correspondent on notarycam. On my notarycam dashboard it shows the completed and notarized form. Am i supposed to wait for a confirmation email from ecfmg or can I proceed on the ecfmg iwa website? Because when I sign in to my ecfmg iwa ot doesnt gove me option to sign up for the usmle exam, it still shows (click here to dowload you're form 186).

      Yes, you have to wait. Once ECFMG processes form 186, then you will be able to proceed with the exam.
