Here is a step by step guide on how to upload your files, fill out the Submission Information Box and submit your work.
01. Login
Go to lcme.exsrv.com and log in using the unique username provided for the candidate profile and the candidate’s date of birth (in format DD/MM/YYYY) as the password.
You can find the login details for the candidate profile in the confirmation email you have received after the booking.
The username comprises a shortened version of your name, followed by a hyphen and an 8-character unique code
(e.g. johndoe-8b7m52sd).
If you cannot log in and see an error message “Invalid Login”, please double check that you are using the exact login details as provided. Common issues include:
- adding extra spaces when copying the login details
- omitting slashes ( / ) in the date of birth used as the password.
Once logged in, you will see your Dashboard. Click on your exam to proceed to the exam page.
02. Exam Page
On the exam page, click the “Recorded Exam Submission” link to continue.
03. Submission & Upload Page
Click the “Add submission” button to begin your submission.
The Submission Page contains instructions on which files need to be uploaded and what information must be included in the Submission Information Box. Read the instructions in the grey and blue boxes carefully. For detail, please refer to the current exam requirements / syllabus published on the LCME website.
