you have registered, you can start sending your supporting documents to ECFMG.

USMLE transcripts, LORs and PS. Is there anything more?

BTW, is there any need to hurry up with buying the tokens? Can one wait till September to start all this?? just asking, on behalf of all the procrastinators out there.

For documents that need to be sent in to ECFMG :

I guess one could buy the token later cos they say it takes them one business day to process the request.You need your AAMC ID for the document submission form....dunno how long it takes the ECFMG ppl to scan the documents though....keeping this mind it would probably be a good idea to get the token in time.

do we have to send ECFMG the transcripts again?? If we already have sent them a copy for the certification do they still need another copy for ERAS?
Thanks
