Many imgs are left without recourse, while American graduates are passed along. This discriminatory approach is uncalled for as many of these imgs are either americans themselves or graduates that have helped us fight this pandemic and now they are cast aside to abide by these former certifications/ regulations that are so easily replaceable for other students with an english proficiency exam. If pathways are to be made for our medical graduates then they should be standardized and be applicable for all candidates. They should not be barred from ecfmg certification or matching. We as a country are in need of doctors, we complain of the lack of physicians for our people and yet we are keeping the doctors offering to help us at bay. Please reconsider.

People with 2 and more attempts in any step or step component are still within the original limits policy of ECFMG (current: 6 attempts)

2. With the unfair and not public scores -rating methods in CS SEP, SEP is not eligible to be a standard English proficiency test. Some examinees with high scores in ICE and CIS failed in their SEP. How is possible for examinees can get good diagnoses and patient notes as well as good communication skills can fail SEP? All the 3 parts are interacted, aren’t they? If the standardized patients cannot understand or be understood, examinees cannot get high scores in ICE and CIS, are they? Actually, that happened! The inconsistency of SEP and ICE/CIS might reflect the inefficacy and subjectiveness of SEP. ECFMG should consider take off SEP as a modification way to CS exam.
3. Age or YOG discrimination is against the political system. Many well-experienced foreign physicians are on this USMLE journey. It’s not wise to block the door for them in the perspective of the whole country’s healthcare system.
