NEW DIRECTIONS FOR IMG-ONTARIO
Effective for the 2006/07 application cycle, IMG-Ontario's mandate is changing. IMG-Ontario will now be an assessment centre providing assessment services to candidates for 15 medical specialties (Family Medicine and 14 specialties). IMG-Ontario will no longer be involved in the selection or placement of candidates at the Ontario medical schools. This responsibility has been devolved to the individual residency programs located at the medical schools in the province. Applicants applying for PGY1 assessment who subsequently wish to apply for a residency position in the province of Ontario or elsewhere in Canada will do so by participating in a national match which will occur in March 2007. In Ontario that process will have sequestered positions for international medical graduates.Applicants applying for PGY2 assessment and/or Practice Ready Assessment (PRA) may then apply for positions directly to residency programs at the Ontario medical schools. Although assessment through IMG-Ontario will no longer be mandatory, program directors may give preference to candidates who have been assessed through IMG-Ontario.

hi siyaa,

if u are already a practising specialist, then do check out the CPSO site. its the licensing body in Canada and hence they have changed few ploicies for people who are already practising specialist.

go to

Only RxPG members can see links here! Register or Sign In!

.....then registration. i think if u have given USMLE exams then u do not need MCC exams ....that is if u are already a practising specialist. if u want to do residency in Canada ..then u need the MCC exams.

do check it out and confirm again ......ok.
