I am depressed - ans_79 - ArchivalUser - 08-05-2008

I have learned now that I will receive the CS result by December 1st the earliest.
Lord, it is not fair! I scheduled first time for Sept. 2 and then changed for Sept. 9, had I left it I would get the result in October.
Now my chances are really low to get an interview...

dont give up , check the programs to which u are applying. what do they mention abt 2cs criteria. if its necessaary to get the result by iv, then dont apply there , atleast right now, try other places which have no such criteria. u probably postponed it cause u wont be done preparing by 2nd sept. better to give 2cs wth full confidence and pass even if it is a little late rather than hurriedly giving it and failing. 2cs repeat attempt looks terrible

Some programs really don't care about CS, so chill out...!
Good luck with the test!

Most programs that I have seen require ECFMG certification by the matching time.
ask them before applying.
