USMLE Step 3 Updates

February 2010
- USMLE® Eligibility Period Extension Fee Waiver Discontinued, Effective June 1, 2010
Beginning in April 2009, the sponsors of the USMLE program agreed, in response to concerns about the spread of pandemic novel H1N1 influenza, to waive their fees for eligibility period extensions. This temporary fee waiver was intended to give examinees flexibility in scheduling examinations during the influenza outbreak. Learn more.
- New Message added to Step 3 Break Screens if Break Time is Exceeded
Beginning with Step 3 examinations in March 2010, if an examinee uses all of the allotted break time in an examination day, enhanced warning text will appear on the screens that display between exam blocks. The warning is displayed in two red boxes, each containing a "counter" to display how much break time has been exceeded. However, if the warning message appears and the “counter” does not appear to be moving or shows "0", examinees should rely on the Day Time Information and Exam Overview provided to manage their time.

January 2010
- Delay in USMLE Step 3 Score Reporting
Most score reporting of Step 3 results occurs within four weeks of testing. However, because of necessary modifications to the test item pool, there will be a delay in reporting for some examinees testing beginning in late February 2010. The target date for reporting Step 3 scores for most examinees testing from late February through early April will be Wednesday, April 28, 2010. It is possible that scores will be available earlier than this date; please check this website for updates.
