Hello everyone....I am devastated to find out that I failed the exam. Gave a couple of IVs already with all positive feedback from the PDs. Now I don't think I will be able to find another date within this year to write the exam as the last day is Dec 31.
I failed the CIS section and I couldn't believe it as I have always been told that I have good interpersonal skills/ bedside manners etc.
Also spoke to ECFMG and they said they will try to expedite the process of getting the permit within 3 business days but there is no guarantee. Even if I do get the permit, I still have to get the exam date in December.
I would really appreciate your advice as to how to go about dealing with this. I am an IMG.

Hi Amikacin, I'm so sorry for you. At the time I'm writing this message there are still available spots for this month. If you address your weakness within a week you might find a date and take the test before this year is over. Make sure you feel fully prepared and confident this time. This is just a hump on the road. Keep going! you can do this, I wish you the best.

Sorry about that , I think you said you interviewed at st mary in PA on 12/11. I was also interviewing there that day. My advice is to practice for like a week or two and take a shot at it. All the best.

Hi Amikacin ,
Sorry to hear u failed .... I know its a very difficult situation but things happen for a reason that sometimes we dont understand but I know u will do great in ur next attempt .
I think that CIS is toughfer than what we thought ..... if i was u just focus on that and i am sure u will improve super fast most ppl failed in ICE so ur position is easy to fix ....
I wish i can help u so if u want u can contact me at morticiacoffin
I took the test in Oct and CIS was high so i can help u if u want . I can do a case with u and go from there
