Hi mades,
I am a young doctor from Austria/Europe and I wanna do the canadian MCCEE exam.
Does anybody know if, after passing the canadian exams, I am also allowed to work in the USA?
Generally - are the passed Canadian exams equivalent to the passed USMLE exams?
I wanna go to Canada/USA to work there because the European medic system really pis..... me off.
Thanks a lot for your help
Nice greetings from the snowy mountains of Austria
Martin

Hi Dion
Major tip for the Qe1 is to practice tons of mcqs. You need to be super fast in answering the questions, the time allowed for the mcqs is so short.
Another tip is to go to the Gerstein Library at U ofT and practice past CRS questions, all the old exams are in there, they are from many years ago, but they give you a good feel for questions and how to answer them.

I found the EE harder than the QE1 - but maybe that was just me. The part 3 of USMLE mcqs are good practice for both EE and QE1.
Good luck!

hi innocent
thanks for your reply. yah, i also found it to be important. i am though trying for it but i have a confusion that if volunteering and observership are the same. some md offer 'observership' rather volunteering. so far i am trying to find the easiest way to get in volunteering. but i dont think it will be that easy to get. what about you. are you volunteering any where?
thanks again

hi innocent.
yes i have got a chance to do 'observership' in a big hospital in london,ontario. lets see how it goes. by the way, thanks for ur opinion and i want to share a different issue today. in most residency program, they prefer more than 400 marks in ee. but after the changed exam rules of mccee 4oo marks is equivalent to 300 marks since january 07. and u see 400 marks in current standard is huge like precentile rank around 95th. so it makes confusion. do u know what exactly is the required marks to be considered good enough for the match? i have decent scores. still..u know the confusion...
thanks
shamim

hi, regarding the changed scores system if u see the FAQ section of mccee there are two tables quite clearly corelating new and older score system ...all u need to do is to match ur score on these two tables and u will get an understanding of where u stand e.g if ur score is 390 on new '07 exam u are on 98th percentile rank and on older score system ur score is comparable to 580-590s.and dont wory residency programs update their criteria every year so ur scores will not compete with a person from older system as such rather differntly as defined by mcc.

hi salo
thanks for your opinion regarding ee scores. i also expect that residency program directors will keep that changed scoring system in their mind and hope to see some changes to show up on carms program description criteria.
