Step II Completely discouraged...

Did Nbme Form 4 today and scored a 190 which correlated to 173. Exam is in less than 2 weeks. Any advice other than postponing?

I've read majority of MTB2/3 and have probably 48% of my UWorld left to complete. Almost at the end of my third year as well. I have also completed CMS Form 1&2 IM, Form 1 for Psych and OBGYN

So if I postpone my exam till September, would I still be able to apply for this years Match (ie. apply in October)?

Yes you can still apply. Most places don't require Step 2 for interviews

I have a low step 1 score btw smh

 

[cabergoline2]

not having a score is any day better than failing or barely passing...

Don't sit that Exam bro , your not ready .. I would rather apply late than wear a AZZZZ whooping for the rest of my life by failing . Take a few days off , regroup and set a fresh plan then go to work .

Ok so now here's a new question. Is it better to apply late or wait till next match? Take into consideration of me being an IMG w/alow Step 1 score.
