It’s slightly different for Family Medicine.
you become AC only 3 years after FM residency.
And C only after completing another 2 year fellowship + doing quite a bit of extra work on top of clinical duties.

Thanks! So even though one has completed residency and passed all exams, he/she will still have to serve as a registrar until a spot opens up...
If the graduate decides to open their own private practice clinic, is there any point of trying to become a C or SC?
