What is the difference between a Certification Statement (Form 183) and a Certification of Identification Form (Form 186)?

The Certification Statement (Form 183) is the paper certification required by ECFMG for applicants who are students enrolled in medical schools that do not participate in EMSWP. A new Form 183 is generated with each on-line application. See Applying for Examination.

The Certification of Identification Form (Form 186) is the paper certification required by ECFMG for applicants who are medical school graduates or are students enrolled in medical schools that participate in EMSWP. Once accepted by ECFMG, Form 186 remains valid for five years. During this five-year period, eligible students and graduates may submit on-line exam applications and requests to extend Step 1 and Step 2 CK eligibility periods without completing another paper certification.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
