Hello all,

Recently I was told by a friend in USA, that the USMLE exams for US graduates are not conducted in Prometric centers. Is this true? Is the exam for US graduates lasting 8 hours in a single day at their universities? Or the exam is conducted on 2 days?

Sincerely,

Dr.Dixon

141 viewers and no reply ! I wonder whether I made a mistake by starting the thread in the Canada section. Should I re-post it in the US section of the forum ?

Sincerely,

Um you were misinformed.

Everyone takes it at a prometric center (AMG/IMG/XMG etc.). In the same exact format. Nothing different.

CS is taken at the 5 centres in the US of A.

Step 3 is only administered at prometric sites within the USA.

My friend was speaking about Step 1 USMLE.
