If you take the USMLE and do bad can you choose not to send it out or does it automatically get sent out

There's nothing automatic about it. Assuming you're a DO, you can just not submit it.

If you're a USMD or an IMG, then all scores will be included when you send your USMLE transcript. And your application won't be reviewed without it.

If you had taken any other attempt at USMLE (Step 1) and want to report it…all scores (Step 2) will be transmitted.

Is it even allowed to re take usmle if you don’t get “ good” score? I thought you can only re take it, only if you failed.

you are not allowed to take the same exam twice if you pass the first time. What this person is saying is that if you take step 1 and fail and then take step 2 and score a 300 you can not submit that step 2 score without also submiting your step 1 score
