Hi!
I have cleared my step 2 ck. I am expecting my step 2 cs results any time next week. I intend to take my step 1 by August. Would I miss the boat to matching and residency 2006 if I don't get thru step2 cs this time?
Thanz for any advice.

Retaking an Examination That Was Failed or Incomplete. If you fail or do not complete Step 2 CS, you may retake it, but you must reapply, including payment of the appropriate fee(s). You may not retake Step 2 CS within 60 days of your last attempt on Step 2 CS. Additionally, you cannot take Step 2 CS more than three times in any 12-month period. Attempts on the ECFMG CSA will be counted as attempts on Step 2 CS for these purposes.
