Can I repeat Step1 if I am not happy with my score?

Just wondering, if I take Step1 and I am unhappy with my score, (but I passed, say 210) can I re-take the exam?

Yes, in fact your scores are cumulative, only need to get 40 more points to get to 250!

Thanks dickface!

I really am serious about this question. Any real help? 😎

You cannot retake the Step 1 if you passed the exam.

you can wait 7 years if you want to retake.

Nope, if you pass, that's it.

If you don't take (and pass) all three steps within 7 years of taking Step 1, your "sequence" is null and void, and your scores are unreportable.

You then must start over and take all 3 steps again, earning all new scores - assuming, of course, you haven't given up on getting a medical license in the meantime.

Way too much work to even consider as a means of upping a score you're unhappy with.
