GOD BLESS U DEAR. I saw your post right time when I was struggling to get a date for the practice session as my scheduled step3 is in 8 days. I tried very hard to get a date at the center and no time to postpone sa I am in my 2nd yr residency. I tried to ask people and tried very hard to go about where to find the online test and ur post helped me a lotttttttttttt a saviour post. I dont have much time and need to study whenever I get time and also have 2 kids while doing residency. Thanks a lot and god bless u with the best things. Hopefully I do very well and I set up my account with the help of ur guidance and feel a big sigh.......
