Please,for certificate of good standing as require for pathway 1 ,should be from my country or from other country I work now ,as example, l graduated and I have license from Egypt but I have worked in Saudi Arabia since 2010 and have license for Saudi Arabia also
Doctor Malke thank you once again. what about imgs not practicing in their home countrys? im from Colombia and right now im practicing medicine in Argentina (specifically general surgery). is Argentina the country who need to provide my license information? i have license to practice in both of the countries above mentioned. Thanks in advance
Hi Dr. Malke, thank you for helping us with your videos. Would an IMG need to take one of the pathways now , If he/she passed the CS exam 7 years ago but it expired because of the seven year rule ?
Hello Doctor Malke , I have a question please , so can I apply for pathway 6 before doing USMLE Step 1 , Step 2 and OET or I have to complete the exams first in order to apply for pathway 6 ? Thanks in advance ❤️
Hello doc I cleared step 1, six years ago. I have one year left for step 2 and OET and then apply to ECFMG, otherwise it will go to waste. However, I am not planning for a residency now but only want to have the chance to apply for fellowships in US later on and don't want my step 1 to be wasted. So I was thinking of getting ecfmg certification through pathway 1 but I am worried that the ECMFG cert will last for 2 years only. Kindly provide insight for this special situation. Even if I require to renew the ECFMG years later from the first certification, what do they ask for?or do we have to appear for the exams again for renewal of cert?
15:33 if you read this page it says your first exam becomes invalid not all the usmle exams if you cross that 7 year deadline. I contacted ecfmg for my similar scenario, they told me that my first exam will be invalid and my 2nd exam will become my new first exam date
I did step 1 in 2013 Step 2 in 2014 Cs done in 2014 Got ECFMG CERTIFIED didn’t pursue Is my ECFMG expired now ? In 2023 I did step 3 this year No residency done
This is something that i don't get it, so if i have my license in 2017 and it's still active i cannot apply for pathway 1? please can you help me. thank you!
Thank you Malke for your valuable guides
Fantastic explanation! Thanks!
You are able to start the pathway application even if you have not completed both STEP exams
How sir ?
Very helpful
Thanks alot

Do we need ecfmg certification before writing Step 1?
Is there still a pathway via writing STEP 3 ?
can I apply for pathway 6 without OET? because clinical evaluation takes time

Hi Dr. Malke, thank you for helping us with your videos. Would an IMG need to take one of the pathways now , If he/she passed the CS exam 7 years ago but it expired because of the seven year rule ?
++++ I also wonder the answer
I have the same question
What about if you have cs passed then which pathway
If you passed CS, then no need for a pathway.

Hey :) what if I already have a greencard but studied in another country (Germany). I passed step 1 and 2. Do I need ecfmg certification?
Thank you, Dr. Malke, for the great information! I have questions about the Tenessi FMG program. How can I contact you?
Great video but I still don’t get how the pathways work? You just apply and you get it? Is there another test?

I passed step 1 and step 2 and oet I got my license to practice medicine in my country Venezuela in 2015. Could I apply to pathway 1?
Yes if you satisfy the other criteria
Doctor please, is it possible to do a video about the alternate pathway for American board of thoracic surgery ?
After 2023, i.e after WFME criteria implementation, will any of the pathways be still valid for non-WFME recognized nations?
Probably yes, but we will have to wait and see
Thank you ,your videos always help

I always thought you needed to finish all the steps including step 3 in 7 years. Thanks for the clarification
You have to in order to obtain license in most states.
