Hey guys. I have a big problem. My test day is tomorrow and I had signed up on my registration with my English name AND legal name... for example James Dang Park. Dang would be my legal name, but James would be my English name that I go by.
I just checked the AAMC website and it said that the ID must match EXACTLY what it says on the registration site.
Every Government Issued ID that I own is listed under Dang Park, and does not include James in the ID.
I just called AAMC about this foreign name issue and he simply said that they will not let me test tomorrow, although I can try.
I'm so shocked as to how strict this is. I wasn't really thinking much of it when I wrote both my names, since that's what I've been doing my entire life since I've immigrated to North America.
For those who've had this sort of problem, did you have much luck??
I am ready for the test, but I wasn't ready for this sort of a problem. ARHG what should I do!? Go downtown and try to get some sort of a government issued ID that says all my name? Where could I even do that!!!
