Congratulations Frenchie1980! Hope to pass the exam and make it to the last stage. I was wondering did you get the invitation by email or was it posted on ECAS? If it was via email, can you share with us the caption of the email with some details on what it contains?

Thanks!
Kerdek

I think it take a couple of days to get updated. Anyway, you got the email with your test date and that what matters.
Just focus on the exam, you came all this way and you very close to the finishing line so study hard and do your best.

Hello All,

As a July applicant who is always on this site, I have taken it upon myself to duplicate the current sheet and maintain it (it is much easier to read and get the highlights). The following link has all the updated entries from Jan to Aug. Please request access if you want to manage the sheet for your month. Access will be given to a max of 5 people from each month with 3 of those individuals from the Scarborough/Vancouver areas as they have the longest processing times.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...s0OQqRHqGdw10LwAItLuJR5XY/edit#gid=1316748968

As my month is July, I will be transferring ownership of the sheet to someone from subsequent months to establish continuity.
