Hello Sdn,
I just received my step 2ck score of a 217 and I am absolutely devastated. All of my practice exams were in the 230-240 range with free 120 scores above 75% and I have no idea where this test went wrong. Here are some of my other stats:
Step 1- Pass
Level 1-Pass
Sigma Sigma Phi...
DO student here, and I was hoping for some advice about if I should take step 2 on top of COMLEX level 2?
Some background on me: Step 1: 255+ . COMLEX 1: 650+. I did well my first 2 years, ranked in the top 10%. I am lucky to have 5+ publications. 5+ poster presentations.I am involved and have...
Hey all! I'm a 3rd-year med student. I am halfway through my clerkships (done with 4 out of 8) and I used Anki for all my clerkships so far in 3rd year except for IM (crazy I know, but there were just too many cards and I got overwhelmed and threw out the whole thing). I want to get back into...
Hi all,
I'm pretty committed to ophtho but my step 1 score is a major hurdle. Step 1 in low 220s, Step 2 near 250. My school advisor wants me to dual apply to play it safe since it's unusual for someone with a low step 1 to match something as competitive as Ophtho. However, I just cant...

Hi everyone, I got some really great advice on away rotations a few weeks ago and wanted to hear some more opinions on my latest conundrum. Unfortunately, my school doesn't have any faculty from competitive specialties so their advice tends to be very superficial; I kid you not after presenting...

Let's figure out the optimal medical school model now that Step 1 will be P/F and Step 2 being the new focus.
How should this change med school curriculum?
Here's what I think:
- Two years for pre-clinical is unnecessary and undesirable. Decrease it to 1 or 1.5 years.
- To accommodate this...
As we approach the end of 2019, I thought I'd share my experience with STEP 2CK. As someone who performed a tad below the national average on STEP 1, I felt I should share my experience to help and or encourage someone who may need it. So, here I go!
I started studying for STEP 2CK on July 1st...

Hey SDN! I'm a 4th year DO student from an established DO school applying anesthesiology this year and was pretty bummed when I received my step 2 score back. I'm wondering how much my drop in step 2 will affect my application and if I should apply to a backup specialty. Fortunately, I was able...

Hi all,
For those of you who have been through the match process for anesthesia, I was wondering, is it necessary to take Step 2 CK before applying? I have a relatively strong Step 1 score (248) and am worried that I may not do as well on Step 2 CK. I know that taking it can help bolster a weak...
