Hi guys,
I want to apply for next years match and need your help determining the significance of a single failed exam (pre-clinical 1 failed attempt, successful remediation, but delay of 6-8 months in total academic time). A short run through of the profile:
Non-US IMG (visa required)
YOG 2020
Step 1: 250+
Step 2: 255+
3 PUBMED indexed research publications (co-author)
2 months of electives, 3 months of observerships. (specialty specific)
I know this probably doesn't matter as much, but following the failure (again, 1 subject, failed by 1.5%, successfully remediated on second attempt. Subject was Pre-Clinical) there were no more failures in ANY subject, with an immediate rise of over 15% over-all raw percentage evidenced on transcripts. Its bothering me that this delay will come up on the MSPE, and I want to figure out, through your opinions, just how screwed I really am. Not that screwed? Dead in the water as a non-US IMG hoping for anesthesiology? Please help me out!
