I applied for the step 1 exam 8 months ago....my eligibility period ended and I extended for 3 more months....these 3 months ended also without doing the exam..
what happens now? I need to apply and pay again only? or that's considered a red flag and reported on my score report?
Dear,
You will have to re-apply, pay another $850 for step 1, get another eligible period next year.
If you did not show up at prometric center so it doesn't count an attempt. Stay tune and be well-prepared for your next.lz:
Best,
Unfortunately you will have to pay again. If you apply for an extension and the extension period ends then you need to reapply and pay again. The good news is that it will not stick in your profile. If you were not well prepared that was the best decision. If you pass the score will be permanent and you will not be able to retake it to improve your score so my advice: Keep studying, don't give up. And take it as soon as you can.
Best Luck!
