actually u gonna nee ur medical diploma only to be translated..that too if it is not in english...i'm hoping that ur diploma language is russian..in that case if u have a word to word translation of that certificate in english given by ur university...no need of translation....
if not translation can be done here in india...but make sure that the translation company is u.s based one.which will be accepted by ecfmg......one of my frend translated from a company in chennai,lyric labs....if u hav time check it in google...
but after applying ..u may need to send ur forms to russia for ur dean signature...be prepared for it too..!
i just the paid usmle step 2 fees. after that appears like this
you are a graduate of a medical school that does not participate in the ECFMG Medical School Web Portal (EMSWP) (or the medical school information you provided in Item 18 is not sufficient for ECFMG to determine if you are a graduate of a medical school that participates in EMSWP), and you do not have a valid Certification of Identification Form (Form 186) on file with ECFMG. Therefore, you must complete a Certification of Identification Form (Form 186).
i ve got only two option
1)Certification of Identification Form (Form 186) - Certification by Medical School Official":
2)If you complete a "Certification of Identification Form (Form 186) - Certification by Notary Public and Medical School Official":
since i was not in russia so i choose the option 2.
i ve got 3 forms !form 344, form 345, form 186. some thing i cant understand is what is Two photocopies of transcript(s) to document transferred credits (216 mm x 279 mm or 8½ in x 11 in), as detailed in
the applicable edition of the ECFMG Information Booklet.?????????? plz let me know guys plzzzzzz

Hello! i graduated from RSMU (Russian State Medical University Pirogov - MOSCOW) in 2010. i really need to know who is the medical school official that should sign my FORM 186. i really need to be sure with the person's name and position because i can't afford to have the form rejected by ECFMG. i am currently in texas and mailing the forms back and forth will take so long. anyone. please help! thank you!!!
ps: also, i was a foreign student in that school. can i just get the dean of foreign student to sign it?

Hi, first you should know , is there any other person from ur unvesity applied for usmle before you. If u try to know that it would be easy. If not, then try to call or mail to ecfmg regarding ur doubt. They will not tell the name of that particular person who is going to sign , but they will tell you the respetive position of that person like Dean, vice dean or rector. So better to call them rather than email...
Thanks chrisabdur! i have actually called ECFMG and they only said usually the Dean signs it. but my school has deans for russian and foreign students. he wasn't that helpful and kept on asking me to ask the school instead. my russian is pretty rusty and i don't think i could find anyone at the school to help me on the phone.
and i don't think any foreigner from my school has done usmle. i think many russians have and im still trying to get hold of them. they have their own forum but it's in russian which i understood like 60% of it.
and does anyone know what will happen after my medical school have submitted my forms to ECFMG? does ECFMG need to send anything back to my school in order to complete my application process? if so, then it'd be another problem for me coz i doubt my school will spend even a minute for these kind of things

It means the russisn dean can sign on it. They will definately mention if your foriegn dean is also an authorised official. But they didnt told you that. Anyway do onething just email them by asking particularly about this. Iam sure you will get ur doubt clear, bcoz me too having the same problem, n i mailed them regarding my problem. They did respond very well.
