    Hi! Thank you for sharing your experience and pathway, it is really inspiring! May be you can share, how did you verify your identity for the MCC, because they require a seal only on English and French and, unfortunately, I dont have this option in my country. If you coped with this in Chile, please give me a piece of advice:)

I can say my ADHD have worsened since I moved here but I'm still fighting to get there! Thank you for the inspiration and advice. If you don't mind I just want to ask about your preparation for the CDM part..were the MCC prep tests enough to cover that for you or did you rely on other resources?

I will go to Montreal in March next year for SAGES and there I will take the NAC OSCE.
