Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I am an IM prelim at a program in AL and I will be moving to NC to complete my categorical residency program. Do I need to list the state board for NC or AL?
thanks
thanks

Step III State Board Selection

Get help with your application
Use all the free resources available to you from SDN: articles, guides, expert advising, forums discussions, and school research.
You can register in nearly any of the 50 states. It seems dumb, but it doesn't matter which state you use to take Step 3, except for the fact that some state medical boards have constraints on when you are eligible to take the exam (some require you to have COMPLETED your intern year, for example.) But, once registered, you can take the exam at ANY Prometric testing center (even if not in the same state that you registered with and even if the state where you are taking the test is one that requires you to have completed an intern year, but you registered in a state that does not.)
