SF Match App Questions

[Xinlitik]

Hey, for you recent applicants I was wondering about a few things.

1) USMLE score report. I wasn't smart enough to print it when it was available for my Step 1. Is the only option the insane $65 document request through NBME?

2) Undergraduate transcripts. My school offers "Official" (sealed and mailed, I'm not allowed to touch it) and "Unofficial" (printed off my computer). Do I need to use the former and send it to my med school's office to add to my application?

Thank you

1. Most likely have to pay nbme
2. YOU can use "student issued copies of the official transcript" but your Dean doesn't submit these supplementary material, you do.

My undergrad only offers "unofficial transcripts". Is that the same as a student issued copy of the official? I've seen other school websites using the term "student issued copy..." but mine specifically calls it unofficial, and I just print it at home rather than get it with any kind of watermark from their office

thanks for the help

call sf match tomorrow, my guess is that its fine but you should confirm with them.
