Another Update - Per ECFMG, In order to make life easier for most IMGS, for the first few years, even if your country does not have wfme accreditation after 2024, you can still apply with pre 2024 criteria (WDOMS Post 2024 + Sponsor Notes). Similarly for the first few years post 2024, even if your country gets WFME accredited, the individual medical school must also be in WDOMS + Have Sponsor Notes.

I'm a living testimony of mr Scott,he has helped me achieve my dream of becoming a licienced doctor👩⚕️,i encourage those who find it difficult to pass the USMLE to work with him and thank me later

If I start my registration in USMLE/ECFMG, how much time do I have as a deadline to take the STEP 1? Is there a time limit? Or can I register now and start preparing to take the STEP 1 in 1 or 2 years? I would truly appreciate it if you could answer my question. Thank you!
Hi I am planning to write my step 1 in 2024 and I haven't applied for ecfmg registration yet so should I apply for ecfmg registration and get form 186 notarised now or should I wait for nmc to get accredited in wfme ? And also how long would it take to get the form 186 notarised ?
Thank you very much Doctor! Do applicant need to set up an appointment for the step 1 exam as soon as the whole application process is completed? How long do applicant can take before choosing a test date?
Hello doctor Madaan. I will be joining my first year of med school in 2024 Bangladesh yet they have still not applied for wfme certification yet even though my college is ecfmg certified. I am very worried what should I do?
I just talked to ECFMG, and they told me that in addition to National Medical Commission (NMC), which is the regulatory board for Medical colleges in India, being recognized by WFME, the medical college should also have a ECFMG sponsor note. This is directly from ECFMG. I called their phone number on their website.
Hi! I had a question regarding the application process. If I get my ID and fill the form 186 is it compulsory for me to give the exam ASAP or can I wait for like 1 or 2 years? Basically I'm in 2nd Year MBBS. I want to get the ID and certificate just in case I'm unable to give the exams cuz of the rule changes. But I don't want to give the exam(Step 1) before 2 years i.e in 4th year.
Hi there! I'm in the same situation as you: I'm currently in 2nd year of medicine and my country is applying to get recognition by the WFME so since I don't know if my country will be recognized by 2024, I was wondering if I should get my ID and form 186 right now (before 2024). The only problem is that I only want to take the exam Step 1 in about 2 years from now. Is that possible? In the video, Dr.Manik said you the ID is valid for 5 years so I think it's possible.
hello sir , how many steps out of the 6 explained by you do I need to complete before 2024 if I haven’t decided a date and still want to be eligible under current guidelines?
Hello Dr Manik, thank you very much for this explicit breakdown on how to apply for the usmle exam. Can I make payment for my ECFMG certification fee now even though my eligibility period is January of 2025? Thank you once again.
Thank you very much, Dr. Manik. The video was very informative. One question after the Certification of Identification Form (Form 186), Could someone schedule for the USMLE Step 1 or Step 2?
Let's say I am a an IMG and I plan to take usmle sometime in the future, can I source verify my medical diploma without registering for a step exam? Only to get it out of the way and no longer need to go through the hassle of source verification later
@manikmadaan thank you for your response, but how is this possible I read this on the official ECFMG information booklet and it is implied that you can't submit your credentials before registering for an exam. "You may not submit the credentials required for ECFMG Certification to ECFMG until you apply for an exam. If you send credentials to ECFMG before you apply for an exam, they will not be processed."
Notarycam are not accepting request for form 186 anymore. Anyone knows why? They say that they will resumen appointments once the migration to MyIntealth is due. But ECFMH has postponed the launch of the new platform until further notice. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks 🙏🏼
I only want to take USMLE step 1 in 2025, should I only complete the form 186 or should I "begin a new application" and finalize with everything in the process? Thank you very much for all your patience to explain for us!! Kind Regards from Brazil!
Hi, Is there a certain time period within which we should apply for usmle step 1 after ecfmg registration. For eg, if i register by Dec 2023 can i appear for step 1 on Dec 2024 or Jan 2025 ?
If i have completed my ecfmg registration as in this video up to step 2 i.e. notery cam process do i also need to submit application for usmle step 1 within December 2023 to be eligible for giving step1 and 2 exam and go into matching process later in future or if i have completed up to ecfmg notery and it is verified, then i can apply online usmle step 1 application later after 2024 also. Please clear this thing i mean do i need to have (150+1155 )$ before December 2023 or is it still ok if i have 150$ till December 2023😂
Does eligibility period means you have to give step one in that period? Moreover im done till notarising form 186. Now i see for application of usmle. Does in 2024 new condition will affect me or i no need to worry
I just got into 2nd year in a university in georgia….what should be the points i should keep in mind if i am preparing to give the step1 in the end of my third year?
Hello, is it enough for the country to be listed as accredited by the WFME recognized national agency or should my specific university be accredited. For example I study in Romania, and Romania is listed as accredited by the IAAR agency, which is the WFME recognized agency. Is that enough? or should my uni specifically be accredited by IAAR? So basically if a country is accredited, does that mean all uni inside the country are eligible for ecfmg or should each uni be accredited individually?
Manic, you are the best❤. In order to be ECFMG registered this year which is the affirmative step? I assume it's the confirmatory email that says you are registered for this year with the eligibility dates mentioned. Please clarify.🚩🚩🚩
Thank You so much for this super informative video! I was so lost in the process of applying and scheduling but luckily I came across this video 😊 I would really like to know if 6/7 months is enough time to really study and prepare for the step 1? (I’m in my third year of med btw)

Thankyou for the video Doctor! I had a question, is it okay to apply as a student but write the step 1 exam as a graduate? The doubt I have is due to the fact that during the filling process can I apply as a student?
Hello doctor, I graduated in 2022 and I got a degree in a bachelor of healthcare in general medicine like that from Kazakhstan and the college from which I graduated is EC FMG certified and that's why I applied for ECFMG initial process. Now my question is one of my colleagues asked for degree verification by there EPIC and he got to know about that. This degree is not willing to go for USMLE and now I am worried about this. I just passed MCI and now working as an intern doctor in India. But I have questions that after this internship I will get the completion of it so may I be eligible for usmle fun basis of internship completion? Because my college is ECFMG certified, so that's why I am worried about this whole confusion

Good day chief. I'm from Africa Nigeria. Wanted to register for the ecfmg but from ur video I noticed no African/Nigerian medical school is on registered yet with WFME however it's on WDOMS but now it's 2024 already, as u stated that ecfmg now uses WFME in 2024. How do I go abt this? Can I still register for ecfmg irrespective?
Hey Manik, Thank you for such an informative video. I have a question. I am an Indian and currently in the USA, so can I select the Testing region as USA? Or do I have to take exam only in India? TIA
Hello doctor Thanks a lot for your information. My country is not wfme accredited. I have submit an application for USMLE ID but I have not got any email yet with my USMLE ID Since that , Will I be able to continue through the certification process under pre-2024 rules. I would really appreciate if you could help me with that information
So for now I just need form 186 and the notry, no need to submit the online application for step1 right? you start that when ur almost ready to take the test right?
Hi Manik, I'm a subscriber and find your content really useful! I have a question regarding the 2024 changes. I study MBBS in UK and our general medical council is not WFME accredited. Which part of ECFMG 'application' needs to be completed before Jan 1 2024? Is it just form 186, and if so, does the application need to be sent or approved before Jan 1 2024? Or is it the full application to register for step 1, verification of med school, and attaining scheduling permit that needs to be finished before Jan 1 2024? If it's the latter, I would have to select my eligibility period before 2024 and this has implications, so it would be life-saving to know. Please let me know the answer or where I could find it, thank you!
What will be the yog for a person who has to do rural bond servive mandatory for reciveing diploma? Will it be year of internship completion or year of bond service completion?

Good day chief. I'm from Africa Nigeria. Wanted to register for the ecfmg but from ur video I noticed no African/Nigerian medical school is on registered yet with WFME however it's on WDOMS but now it's 2024 already, as u stated that ecfmg now uses WFME in 2024.
How do I go abt this? Can I still register for ecfmg irrespective?
as long as your school has sponsor notes you can proceed. No need for WFME as of now
Hey Manik, Thank you for such an informative video. I have a question. I am an Indian and currently in the USA, so can I select the Testing region as USA? Or do I have to take exam only in India? TIA
yes

How did you do for publishing reasearch articles??
very useful video . thank you :) i already cleared form 186 once but didn't give the exam. Do i need to do it again ??
Hi Manik, I'm a subscriber and find your content really useful! I have a question regarding the 2024 changes. I study MBBS in UK and our general medical council is not WFME accredited. Which part of ECFMG 'application' needs to be completed before Jan 1 2024? Is it just form 186, and if so, does the application need to be sent or approved before Jan 1 2024? Or is it the full application to register for step 1, verification of med school, and attaining scheduling permit that needs to be finished before Jan 1 2024? If it's the latter, I would have to select my eligibility period before 2024 and this has implications, so it would be life-saving to know. Please let me know the answer or where I could find it, thank you!
form 186 with notarization. that's it. you can apply for the exam within 7 years of the process
