Relevant Organizations Parents’ Coalition of SGUSOM The Parents’ Coalition is an independent organization, founded in 1985, in response to a changing political atmosphere that affected the School of Medicine students. The coalition has had significant impact on legislation at both state and federal levels, and today students enjoy the progress that the coalition has made over the years. Presently, the coalition remains politically oriented, monitoring the changes that will be occurring in health care and medical education. The Parents’ Coalition is a nonprofit organization. Meetings are held at least once a year. The coalition welcomes membership from all students, parents, or friends of St. George’s University School of Medicine. Miriam Jacobs, Director Phone: 1 (800) 474-8766 Fax: +1 (973) 467-6743 Outside of US: +1 (973) 467-6714 National Resident Matching Program The function of the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP) is to match applicants seeking postgraduate residency positions in the United States with institutions offering those positions. Students are given the opportunity in the final year to rank preferences confidentially. The students are matched to training programs ranked highest that offer prospective graduate positions. Students and graduates of foreign medical schools may enroll as individuals and will be retained in the match program if they submit proof of having passed the examinations required to obtain the ECFMG certification by the date of submission of rank order lists in January of each year. ECFMG certification must be obtained before beginning residency training. Residency applications are now generally done through the Electronic Residence Application Service (ERAS). International medical students obtain the necessary software to complete the electronic format application from the ECFMG and return it to them for processing in the early Fall, prior to the expected start of a residency in July. Candidates who intend to enter the United States as exchange visitors must also be able to qualify under the conditions of applicable US law. Residency program directors must determine that alien students of foreign medical schools will be able to obtain a visa if matched, that applicants are ECFMG-certified, and that applicants are also eligible under state law for any license or permit that may be necessary to study as residents. Family Weekend St. George’s University Family Weekend provides the students’ families with an insider’s view of the island, its people and the University. Showcasing our beautiful True Blue campus in Grenada, West Indies, St. George’s hosts the families of our enrolled students as they see the campus, meet the administration, and experience what the beautiful island of Grenada has to offer. Family Weekend is held twice yearly in September and February. For more information visit sgu.edu/familyweekend. School of Medicine Relevant Organizations School of Medicine Catalog 2013–2014 | 125

There is now in place a single, three-step examination process for achieving medical licensure in the United States: 1. USMLE Step 1 2. USMLE Step 2 a. Clinical Knowledge (CK—Written Exam) b. Clinical Skills (CS—Clinical Skills Exam) USMLE Step 1 is a test of basic science knowledge and is usually taken at the completion of the Basic Medical Sciences curriculum. Step 2 is a two-part examination given during the final year of the Medical Sciences. Clinical Knowledge is a written examination. Clinical Skills is a bedside examination that utilizes standardized patients to test students’ abilities in clinical skills, (for example, medical history taking, physical examination and diagnosis of the patient, and composition of a written record of patient contact). Spoken English is also assessed at this time. USMLE Step 3 is administered after graduation by individual state licensing boards. Information on the scheduling of and application for these examinations is distributed to students in a timely fashion during their medical programs.
