My residency program is telling me I need to take Step 3 sometime this year. I just found out the cost: $655!!
Seriously, IVE HAD IT. I'm about to pull my hair out. First it's Step 2 CS, which was complete and total horse$h!te. I spent over 1200 dollars that I didnt have, just proving that I can speaky-de-english. Then several grand on interviews (While my college friends who have "real jobs" got wined/dined/reimbursed for every interview they ever had). Now, after finally being lucky enough to make minimum wage ($1300 per paycheck / "160"hrs =8.125 dollars/hour), I get wrongholed again (no loob) and have to pay a WEEKS worth of my salary on a flippin test--a computer test at that! Do I get to take the computer home with me as a souvenir? I mean, where does this money go! (a rhetorical question, I dont want any smart answers).
THIS IS WRONG. THIS IS WRONG. How do we get so screwed? Yes, I'm complaining. If anybody even dares to say "You're still going to be among the highest paid jobs", they can go straight to the produce section of their local grocer, take the large end of an eggplant and put it where the sun dont shine.
When does this BS end? Enough is enough. Nobody should spend a WEEKS wages just to take a computer test that has little relevance to their chosen field.
