Hi Folks,

I am taking the CPE in June (Vegas). I wonder if I can find someone here who is going to take it as well, or has already taken the CPE. Let me know.
Thanks👍

Hi, I am also studying for the CPE exam and I was reading through the forum and I saw that you were able to answer the following question-
Discuss how to differentiate between rumen gas cap, LDA ping and Pneumoperitoneum, Pneumorectum or pneumocolon

I know how to differentiate between rumen gas cap and LDA but not the others ones?

Can you please help?
Thank you.
 
Hello DVMJakish,

I was enrolling to the ecfvg but i discovered that:

Certified, notarized, or official (issued directly by school) photocopies of the applicant's veterinary college diploma and transcripts (for each year), both in the language of issuance and as a certified English translation if necessary. Provisional Certificates and Certificates of Graduation are unacceptable for ECFVG program purposes.

In our beautiful land that is Italy the veterinary college diploma is given after 1year from the graduation so i dont have it....how can i do now?😡
P.S.: what are "transcripts"?

pls help me!😱

2. what are the admission requirement for getting into 3 year residency after getting US license ?

a transcript is basically your grades/subjects for every year at your school.
as for a diploma just send that transcripts and certificate of graduation with the registration application and fee then they will consider the diploma missing but you will be able to do step 1 through 3 but not step 4 CPE till you get a translated copy of your diploma, it will take you a while till you finish step 1-3 and register for cpe and get assigned for a test location by then you should have had your Diploma already.😀

Iam Assuming you haven't read through all of the previous replies of that Lengthy informative thread!!!

Any who:
For Toefl: take the test in India and you will know how it is try Ielts first not hard . practice online just do some search for some materials or so, if you can speak English /read/write won't be hard.

For residency, you can get into an internship for very very long hours of work and minimum payment for one year and you gain experience, But Residency is very very competitive and its to get specialized , you can just work right away in general practice you don't need either of them( intern or residency) to be able to practice.

Last about how much you make owning your own practice it depends where you open it and how much competition around, i wouldn't worry about it now it is not an easy task to own a practice
Go ahead and read all of this thread you will find all of your answers and more

thanks dr. ..i 'm going through all the threads in this FVG forum.
 
Thanks King305 u were very kind👍😎

Ah...for the residency and internship argument i would like to say something. I dont know how it really works in US but i think that it's not impossible to get in, cause u have so many choice mostly in private clinics. You are not paid so much 4years (1y internship+ 3 residency)but after u are specialized and maybe u can gain more money than a "simple" veterinarian.

@westnile and other FG veterinarians--

currently i 'm working with ECFVG certification.

You mean that it is not impossible. i have heard from someone that we need to apply for 1 year internship first, after attending that we can apply for 2/3 year residency programme. Some one told me that 2/3 years clinical experience and research paper/publish is also a requirement for applying/admission into residency prog.thanks guys.

Any one in the Sunshine state (South Florida to be specific) getting ready to take the CPE? I would like to get together. What is the waiting time nowadays for the CPE? that is my next step. I am trying to scrape the$5oo together to at least be able to see the application. Then I could see what the waiting time is for my self. I saw some classes or course from VCRC to help you prepare for it. Is there anything else out there. Any recommendations in how to prep for this?. Any website to visit?
I will appreciate any help. Thanks JoeLO

You're better of enrolling for ECFVG. It will give you more options as PAVE is not recognized in every state.
