where should I get my medical examination for applying ATP pilot training?
From an FAA medical examiner, you can find one on the FAA’s website.
Nina,
You need to contact an AME (Aviation Medical Examiner) in your area. Google or this link should help:

thank you! is there any expiration date for medical report ? could u suggest me any school for pilot training too?
Nina,
FAA Medicals all expire with varying durations (from 1-3yrs). As for flight schools we obviously recommend ATP as this is their forum. I recommend you spend some time looking at our FAQ section as this will help you tremendously.
Adam
Thank you for response and one more question which financing options would u recommend for me ? and How long does it takes to be commercial pilot it’s 9 months or 2 years.
Nina,
With ATP the program is 9mos to complete all your training and earn your licenses and ratings. After that time you’ll have you Commercial Pilot license and can get paid to fly. However the FAA requires 1500hrs to fly for an airline. To build that time typically takes another 1-1.5yrs. ATP offers all their successful students flight instructor positions as a means to build that time.
Adam
Thank you !so what is the next step after medical test?
Nina,
If you haven’t already you MUST go for an Intro flight. While flying is the dream for many people until you actually go up in a small plane with your hands at the controls you simply don’t know if it’s right for you. In fact I would do that BEFORE you spend money on a medical.
Adam
do i need any medical report before for intro flight?
Nina,
Noooo, that is why I recommended the Intro flight first 
Adam
o ok so I can do intro flight anywhere?but I really want to be a pilot.
Nina,
If there’s an ATP location nearby they have a great Intro Program (https://atpflightschool.com/programs/intro-training-flight.html) but if not you can go to your local flight school.
You know Nina when I was a kid I REALLY wanted to be a doctor. When I got to HS they had a Pre-Med Intro class and on the first day they played a video of an appendectomy and I passed out which pretty much ended my medical career. You have to go up. Fact is ATP won’t even take your money until you do.
Adam
Thank you for sharing ur real life story !so as u said m gonna do my intro flight first. Again thank for your help !I M confuse which financing program should I chose in future if m going to jion flight school.
Nina,
Take your intro flight and then you can call ATP Admin and discus financing options. One step at a time.
