I knew u'd have answered me. I have called ECFMG few months ago and they told that my credentials were okay and I wouldn't need to send anything else. But I tought the transcript were something else, especially because in my ECFMG account there is nothing written in the "transcript" section.

I have read that the reliability of the LORs depends to the fact that one waives his right to see them. what does it mean? I know 2 american doctors who can write me 2 LORs. Should they send them directly to the Eras? or to the program director? I tought I could show them directly during the interviews. How should I proceed?

Hi, Wamba where did u read that.Most of my schoolmates send their LORs themselves.It is very difficult to get LORs leave alone telling proffesors to send them on their own.

I'm reading the "AAMC roadmap to residency". DO I need to waive my right to see the LORs? and if yes, can I bring them in the interviews or send them to ECFMG?

if u waive ur right - send them to ecfmg.. dont keep the lors with u.. its like robbin a bank and writin the stickup note on the back of ur own cheque and leavin it there at the cashiers.. u will find the cops at ur home man!!

Excuse my (probably) silly question: how do I waive my right? and again, I'm reading that if I need it I can request an official USMLE transcript. But I still don't know what it is and why I should request it.
