Several people in my year have either dropped out or taken indefinite leaves of absence, mostly related to Step 1.
My school has minimum required grades on some practice NMBEs to sit for Step 1 (like 192 or something). Had two friends who didn't meet them, both took extended time and eventually passed.
However, also have a friend who remediated multiple classes in M1 and M2, never passed an NMBE, and repeated the year. This person was actually advised to drop out by the administration, but went through M2 anyway. Failed every NMBE and failed Step 1, and it wasn't close. Great, caring person, but dropped out after that.
