Did a search, couldn't quite find anything that related to my question. I'm a 3rd year D.O. looking at Anesthesiology. I've got particularly strong step I USMLE scores(260+) and I'm at a dilemma as to whether or not I should take USMLE IICK, as there's a pretty reasonable chance I won't match my Step I score. Can anyone here provide me with any insight towards my situation? Is it worth taking the risk that my score could potentially decrease on the 2nd step?
