Hi everyone. I have narrowed down my acceptances to two schools. One program follows the standard 2-4-2, meaning that I would take Step 2 in about 7 years from now. The other program has more of a non-traditional pathway because MSTP students take Step 1 and Step 2 before the PhD phase. I would much rather take Step 2 if it is P/F, so do you think there is any chance of that happening in the next 7ish years? I am worried that if I choose the program with the non standard structure, then I will have to take Step 2 while it is graded, while other MSTPs around the country would take it later down the line when it becomes P/F. Any thoughts or insights would be very much appreciated!
