Nope. It is legit. Someone did spend ~$100 for legal help on that website.
Quite coincides with general attitude at CPE testing sites.

Legit or not legit, whats the point of legal action. My way of thinking its a bad idea..... really bad idea. Are you going suit the high school teachers you went to, college , university, government bodies, dmv, cops, FBI, CIA..... AVMA, ECFVG, State medical boards.....bad idea. Appealing or writing letters, arguments nothing good comes out of it. My one dime of advice you follow the rules take it again and graduate. You are wasting your time.
what is the point of legal action then what you think your license is awarded then what? Will you able to practice with this background, will the national or boards or state boards let you practice 'peacefully'. Every injection or medical case you deal will under microscope 🙂 its not going to end there.............
a
I guess that appealing a decision because you consider there was a mistake during the evaluation Ie: the examiner got out of the manual's rubric, is a right that everybody has as long as it is done respectfully, after evaluating the received feedback and being honest to yourself.... BUT if the candidate has arguments for many things, complains even for the fly that was close to him/her during the palpation test, create a big problem and pretend to sue for it, the consequences at the end obviously are not going to be positive..

Hello,
I'm really sorry if i am saying this on the wrong forum or if this is off topic.
I live in Illinois and my dad had filed the visa for brother to sister and they are really close to getting there visa call.
My Uncle has BVSc & AH degree and has been in practice in India for over 15 years. He went to College of Veterinary Science and Animal Husbandry, Anand also known as Anand Agricultural University in India. He is thinking that it would be a good idea to stay in the USA if he can become a veterinarian here.
my uncle will be here in USA for sure and have visa so that is not a problem.
Me and my uncle would like to know what he has to do to become a veterinarian here.
What exams does he have to take?
In which order does he have to take them?
I have done research and found a couple exams he would have to take but i do not know in which order.
He will not have any problems taking any exams and studying for them.
thank you and please let me know

Hi,
If u r uncle is here on an unexpired valid visa,he can go through the process.There are two different programs ie ECFVG(by AVMA) and PAVE(by AAVSB).Both require TOEFL or IELTS(my choice) with certain sectional requirements.Please go through the following websites,you will get an idea,please let me know if u need anything else.All the best
https://www.aavsb.org/PAVE/
https://www.avma.org/professionaldevelopment/education/foreign/pages/default.aspx
can somebody answer my question?
I know ECFVG has 4 steps,for a foreign student you need to pass first 3 steps and then move to the USA to take step4.my question is what if they didn't gave me visa to go to america?! Is it possible?has anybody have any experience about this?
thank you

I bileave it is quite general question to visa applications. Most of people come as tourists and take CPE exam - no questions asked by USCIS - you come to spend money. If you have problems ask more targeted forums.
There are no time limits. If 2 years have passed since you enrolled into the program, you can re-register for 100$ and keep taking your exams.

Hi everyone,
It's so good to find this forum. Making me feel that I am not alone in this long process of US vet licensing.
I am doing PAVE program. And I am wondering if anyone can give me an idea about the 4th step, Evaluated clinical experience?
Which school did you go to? How's your experience about it? And the tuition cost of it?
Just feels that there is not much insider information about this step.
Thank you all!!

Hi bkrvet,
According to the PAVE website, I thought there are at least 6 vet schools that are accepting PAVE candidates.
Here's the web page: https://www.aavsb.org/PAVE/ClinicalExperience/
But who knows how big the odds are of getting into them.
I am preparing for the QE right now. Planning to sit in on January, 2015.
How about you?
Cheers!
All the best and post your experience.
Read manual of administration very carefully. Everything they ask is in the manual. The better you know it - less stress.
Hi all , any one will prepare for CPE exam and will be in las vegas 2015 email me we can prepare study together

I can assure this is a very real situation, as I am representing a client dealing with the exact same issue. I am wondering if there is anyone else who appealed their CPE results and been treated unfairly on subsequent exams. It would be interesting to see if a pattern emerges.
To be sure, the reason for the student's legal action is due to the fact that he feels the exam administrators have put a target on his back merely because he attempted to appeal the results of his exams, thereby making it impossible for him to ever pass the exam.

please share it to me as well.. here's my email.. [email protected] Thanks a Lot!Phila! Don't worry about that! ... Try to read the most important chapters on a physiology book so you can refresh your knowledge and get a better idea! CARDIO, BLOOD, URINARY, RESPIRATORY, and REPRODUCTIVE are the most important to understand the physiology per se.
Anatomy, you will catch it when reading physiology, and also you can focus on musculoskeletal (especially in the horse).. Some other things like major blood vessels or the completely understanding of the heart are necessary.
Don't worry.. you will be OK!.. Just study, and be constant..
By the way, I think I have some files on pdf I could share with all you, but I dont know how to upload them! *help*!!
Good Luck!!!

Hello foreign trained-veterinarians, I am from India, and I failed in BCSE exam in first attempt last year and after attempting BCSE exam I had found that I was weak in Radiology (diagnosis of X-ray/Radiographs), Clinical Vet Pathology, Physiology, Clinical anatomy, Surgery & Anesthesia areas.
I prepared from Merck Veterinary Manual 9th edition, NVMS Small animal internal medicine & NVMS Large animal internal medicine, Zuku Review 45 days + Zuku notices (Zuku review not enough for BCSE), and radiology from online resource www.veterinaryradiology.net and online Merck manual X-rays/Images but these books/resources are not enough to pass the BCSE exam in now a days. Many questions in BCSE were asked about clinical approaches in various clinical surgeries, barium injected radiographs, many radiograph diagnosis from Equine fractures, Canine fractures.
I think BCSE exam became much harder than last yearS. Please help me. You can email me at [email protected]

1st edition is enough for you as far as NAVLE is concerned. You are not going to read whole book anyway.
Hi dvmjakish, could you send me those files too? I am preparing the BSCE and any help would be welcome! [email protected]
I know someone doing the rotations. They are with 4th year vet students from that university it's 8 months and no financial aid. You pay the same tuition that any other student pays plus you have to get an apartment.
Yes in Alabama Tuskeguee for 250 a week they train you and their are course in small animals etc. that you can take all over the United States. The biggest problem is surgery I would recommend going to your country for surgery practice easier then US.
Unfortunately Vetprep and Zuku are really the only true options and NBVME offers no help at all with books or material. The only thing that I recommend it the job anaylsis on NBVME.org offers a lot of help on exam content. I plan to use the job analysis to see if that helps because I have done zuku and vetprep and fail by two or three percentage points something is missing.
A lot of people use vetprep and zuku and pass on first try just very difficult scoring of the exam it's a toss up really. The sad thing is sometimes 100 out of 100 students pass the exam in a US vet school and so many people fail the exam really hard to fathom but hey it's what we have to deal with because we didn't go to US school.

Do zuku and vetprep at the same time if you have the money.
i have still subscrpition from zuku after BCSE so still have access to zuku flash cards ,strategy notes and test questions..i checked the navle free sample and i noticed that flashcards and notes and even many test questions are the same for NAVLE like BCSE...do you think there is a big difference between zuku NAVLE and BCSE program?because actually i didnt purchse zuku NAVLE program only i have still BCSE subscribtion

In my opinion, having both Zuku and Vetprep is just waste of time and money. Both have covered same topics (diseases).
I would definitely advise to get online NVMBE questions. You have to pay for that but believe me its worth it.
