  • HOW CAN I PREPARE FOR ECFMG MINI-CEX FOR NRMP MATCH 2022?

    ECFMG announced the 6th Pathway for students who failed STEP 2 CS previously, once or multiple times. Also students who have not qualified for Pathway 1,2,3,4 or 5 will have to choose Pathway 6 for ECFMG certification for the 2022 NRMP Match. Mini CEX is different from Step 2 CS in many ways. The applicants for Pathway 6 have to evaluated by licensed physicians in the United States in person using the ECFMG Mini-CEX for Pathway 6.
