Hi Vjers... had my renewal of medical examination @ slec last wednesday (sept. 12), took me 7 months to fix my 221g, so USEM sent me a letter to renew my medical., Went to SLEC around 9:30ish to my surprise i finished before 10:45am.. last time i went to SLEC it took me 7hours to finish everything..everything went so fast, there were just few people around after i knew it im having my physical exam already. So, i guess those who are planning to have their medical.. be there at 9 am or maybe 10am no need to fall in line at 5am.. and choose middle of the week like wed or thurs... i just hope i will get my visa this week.. :) Goodluck to all of us!!

Yup. Visa validity is tied to the medical, max 6 months, so its necessary to redo the medical. I agree middle of the week seems to be less busy.
