ECFMG Certification without Step 2 CS

This petition had 5,405 supporters

The Issue

In the midst of the COVID-19 crisis, USMLE Step 2 CS has been suspended since March 2020 making the applicants unable to give USMLE step 3 and many of the applicants ( maybe ) not being able to apply for 2021 Residency match season. 

This petition is for change in ECFMG policies to provide certification with USMLE Step 1 and 2 CK so that applicants ( mainly international medical graduates ) can readily start applying for the 2021 matching season and give USMLE Step 3.
