Hey everyone, great to see others interested in psychiatry as I am. I'm currently a 3rd year student at a US medical school and I am really leaning towards psychiatry at this point (for several reasons). I was a decent student my first 2 years..maybe top 40% of my class or so. Main problem was I choked really hard on Step 1. Had a bad case of nerves during the test and also I would have to say that the exam was pretty dang tough too. Anyways, I ended up with a 213...was just wondering assuming I get through third year without too many hiccups and maybe do a little better on Step 2, would I have a chance at most university programs? I don't really care about being at a top program..but I would prefer a university program. If you have any insight or advice I would really appreciate it. Thanks a lot and great to see interest in the most important medical specialty.
