Hi all,
Not sure this is the right forum but here goes. I'm an M3 trying to plan out the next 3 months and I'm curious to know what role a Step 1 score plays in residency apps for psychiatry specifically. The director of our psychiatry clerkship has asserted that our hospital's psych program doesn't even look at scores, assuming you pass, and that most other programs don't either; other, younger psychiatrists I know have suggested that it's probably the most important part of one's application (the same as in other specialties).
I'm asking because I'm trying to organize my priorities for the next three months. (Is three months away too early to start studying anyways?)
Thanks!
