Guys,
At the end of my 2nd year of med school, I had to take a year off to attend to some family matters. During this time I did not adequately prepare for Step 1 and did not take the test within the time frame allotted to me by the school. I was subsequently dismissed from my program and my chances of challenging and reversing their decision is basically zero:cry:
I still very much want to be a physician and I've been searching about the possibility of attending another program in the US. I found out some schools will not accept students into their program if that student had been dismissed from another program. Is this the general trend? Would that mean my only option is to apply to the programs on the islands?
Please help. I'm devastated and just trying to get a grip of the entire situation.
Thanks guys
