Hi everyone, I’m a USMD at a California T30 medical school. I took Step 1 and did not pass due to ongoing personal circumstances. In short, I was not in the right headspace and tried to push through. Ultimately that did not work out, and I took some time off to regroup. I retook it and I did...

PGY-1 really worried about going into anesthesia. I really enjoyed anesthesia as a medical student but after doing my rotations in the ICU I’m starting to think I made a terrible choice for my personality. I didn’t realize how much ICU is a part of anesthesia and I’m at a program where we do 2...
