Hi everybody
I am old graduate & I would like to ask some questions about how to make a registration in ECFMG & how to prepare for USMLE?
1- I have a problem that my surname name in passport, doesn’t match that in medical diploma ,it is the same name but in passport they put the name of the family or tribe ,but in diploma the name of grandfather ,does this would make me any problem in registration?
2- I would like know ,exactly ,what they need from college in verification?
3- Do I need to wait until ECFMG receive the completed form of 186 from my college to apply to exam?
4- When should I contact the Prometric company to arrange the exact date of the exam?
5- I need to know ,in my case which should be better to start is step 1 or step 2 & how long it would take each in preparation?
thank you in advance for your help
