Did Emed for the first time last Monday. Super easy and worked with Verifly. I am virtually certain the "proctors" are not MDs. We talked with 4 during our 2 tests. If you "sling the lingo" a bit, you can tell who went to medical or nursing school and who didn't. I think its more likely a calling center somewhere not in the US. The boxes were in my rollaboard and got crushed a little. I used the most beat up box, the proctor eyeballed it then told me it was ok to use. So a little wear and tear on the outside shouldn't make it unusable, Just don't open it.
