I got a 205 in step 1
What are my chances for family medicine residency matching?
i know there are a lot of other factors going on, but even to get an interview..
does my step 1 score hurt me?
I'm an IMG that scored 205 on step 1
I'm at a crossroads on whether to continue with step 2 or just pick another career option
I don't want to waste time if there is no chance for me to match next year..
What are the chances of me matching into Family, Internal, or Neuro with this score?
And...
Ill start off by saying that I am applying to internal medicine and my step 1 score is fairly low. I am looking for a way to search residency programs based off of step cut offs or even average step scores, so I do not waste my money applying to programs that I won't get into. If anyone has a...

Hey all,
I have started my second year and we just got through our first block of classes. I have been investing some of my time towards class ensuring I understand key principles, though devoting the majority of my time in studying for boards as in doing problems and identifying the topics...

Unfortunately I scored much lower than expected. Thought Id atleast hit 240s based on all my practice scores. Do I need research to make up for the lackluster step score? or will doing well in grades and step 2 be enough to match a mid- low tier DR program?
By the way I am an MD at a top 50 school

Not sure if there's a demand for this but I have a UWorld self-assessment I never used from my step 1 studying. It hasn't expired yet so if someone wants it, I'd be happy to pass it along somehow.
Hi all,
Haven't posted since my premed days but I recently have gotten my board scores back 240 step 1 and 621 comlex. I honestly don't know what a good comlex score is though. If anyone can provide some guidance on that please feel free to respond!
As for my main reason for posting, I am NY...

Going into 3rd year with a completely open mind, I wanted to give myself a list of realistic specialties to make sure to explore throughout the year whether through electives or shadowing experiences. Here are my lists so far:

we can work out a "do-able" schedule and timing..
I just finished Immuno/biochem/hemat from FA with boards and beyond and started Rx bank for that subject but I am scoring 45-50% only at my first pass..I am very tensed by this. Should I be really worried about this ? IS this normal ? I still have 8 months to prepare.. Been 2 month since my...
Just looking for this legendary anki deck that everyone uses apparently! Can't find it here. There is a 2014 version on his website but I have heard talk of updated versions. Where can I find these? Thanks all.
I just finished up my MS1 year at a school that does organ blocks and definitely doesn't teach to step 1. This summer I want to review everything I learned for MS1. This is what we covered:
(Anatomy, Macromolecules, cell phys, genetics, histology, pharm, path, Epidemiology)

I know there are a few threads out there about this already, but some are pretty out of date. I just finished MS1 and have 8 weeks before MS2. My school is on an organ block system and we take Step 1 early. Tons of other threads say to not study and just enjoy your summer. I WANT to study. I...

So I did a search but there didn't seem to be a lot of recent relevant info on this question. I am an incoming M1 and am trying to understand how to approach my general strategy for classes/boards. Correct me if I am wrong but traditionally, the curriculum would be all the normal...
In passing through multiple threads I've read that B&B is an excellent resource for filling in gaps in knowledge when preparing for step 1.
My question is, are these videos such a good learning tool that they should be used alongside MS1 courses to learn the basic sciences and systems? Or, is...

I took the exam last Tuesday (5/16), and I walked out of it in a semi-decent shape, feeling somewhat confidence I had at least passed. As days go by, I keep remembering questions and I can't stop myself from looking them up. So far I have about 12 incorrect answers (only from the few I remember)...
Hey guys recently took my step 1 and thought I would share my experience while it is still fresh in my head.

What is the allure of top-tier med schools as opposed to mid-tier/state schools?
I've been doing a lot of thinking lately, especially in regards to my strange notion of having to go to the best possible medical school. I had it in my head that I needed to be at some top-tier medical school in...
So, I'm finding it too passive to just read FA cover-to-cover, but I keep finding sources that say this is the way to go. On the flip-side, I have used ANKI (Bros deck) and have loved it. Anyone have any thoughts on using USMLE-Rx Express Videos combo'd with ANKI in place of reading FA?
Hey guys, I'm coming to the last block of MS1 and have been doing well with out ever appreciably using Anki or firecracker but I want to add in something for spaced repetition so that I can make sure I retain everything over the summer and MS2. Does anyone have an opinion of whether I should...
