Residents who are entering their first year of post-graduate training must schedule and take the USMLE Step III within nine (9) months of beginning the program. Residents whose training at Temple University Hospital begins at the second year of post-graduate training must schedule and take the USMLE Step III within three (3) months of beginning the program.

7 Failure of USMLE Step 3 If a Resident has failed the USMLE Step III, the resident should consider taking a preparation course to better prepare for the examination. A resident who fails to meet the examination requirement to advance at the next level of training will not be allowed to continue in the graduate medical education program. Therefore, the resident’s contract will not be renewed. A Program Director may petition Graduate Medical Education, in writing, for an extension of the resident’s training to complete an examination requirement. If the request is approved, the resident may be granted an unpaid leave of absence, not to exceed 4 months.
