Re: chance to get Residency matilda - 02-07-08 17:44 Should you pass step 3 in order to get residency?

I will appreciate if someone will give some more info.

Re: chance to get Residency TheOne - 02-07-08 17:46 No you don't need that..
But passing Step 3 is a "Plus" on your application.

That is correct. You do not have to pass Step 3 to apply fpr residency. Of course it makes you more competitive if you have it done, but it is not a requisite to apply. Go to ECFMG web site for more info.
