Hey guys,
IMG applying for R-1 CaRMS. Had a couple of questions
1. Is USMLE score reporting mandatory? Prior year threads suggest they're optional but the AWS manual (http://www.carms.ca/pdfs/AWSUserManual.pdf) indicates (for the CMG section anyways) "An entry for each examination is mandatory unless you have checked the box indicating that the examinations are not applicable." I ask as my USMLE grades range from not so hot to terrible but my CE score is pretty decent.
2. Would it be a wise idea not to release an updated transcript with poor scores? I have already sent in a school transcript but my only Canadian elective grade is rather poor (for not so obvious reasons but c'est la vie)
