I am working under time pressure and wd appreciate someone's help on this. Thanks!!!

If I apply for step 3 on June 10, when is the earliest I can appear for exam?

Can I take the exam on Sat and Mon or it has to be 2 consecutive days?

After we give the exam, when can we get the results?


anyone..please help
If u can get the exam dates on monday and saturday,u can.Seach for the dates u need.
U get the results exactly 3 wks afterwards.
Good luck
Thanks so much realist123 - how much is the lag time from time of application to date I can appear for exam?
Yur eligibility peiod starts only after yur application is appoved not on the day u apply for the test.Application appoval can take 10-15 days.
Good Luck.
Thanks realist123
Im not sure if that is entirely true and i would definitely confirm that before i did it. i heard that the prometric software allows you to schedule it for some reason on says such as saturday and monday, but when you get to the center it becomes a big problem because by RULE, step 3 MUST be taken on two consequtive days..please correct me if I am wrong but i am almost positive of this because this same issue has been brought up in the past
