also while there have been grads licensed in states using the cali list from non cali schools it is worthwhile to point out that the use of the cali list is relatively new in these states wether officially or not officially it has only been within the last one or two years so while a st mats grad may have gone into say tennesee 2 years ago it is not likely now. so students need to know that the use of the cali list has the potential to be a real issue since it seems that more states are using it..albeit very slowly but use is growing and they shoudl also know that the fsmb recommended states use the list or make one of their own 3 years ago and that is why it is becoming more of an issue.

good luck this whole becoming a doctor is a pain in the rear..no wonder most of us are bitter and disillusioned shadows of our former selves
