thats pretty informative dude... but we already had this in our forum...

for step 3 u have to go to fsmb.org.we can't apply through ecfmg.org.then u will get permit for the slot u chose in ur email.

When do you exactly pay for the USMLE, the 2008 ECFMG information booklet said upon application... Does it mean upon application on-line using IWA before the submission of the medical credentials or during the submission of the medical credentials to ECFMG?
