I have a bit of a lengthy story so I hope nobody minds. I went abroad to medical school after high school in the US. I wasn't a very good student and it took me 2 years extra to finish. I tried to study for the USMLE after graduation but it didn't work out and I ended up quitting without taking the test. I've done various non-medical jobs since.
The reason I decided to post this is because I recently got a job at a hospital where I'll be working closely with doctors. I'm wondering if I can manage to get good USMLE scores and get good LORs from the doctors I'm working with, does anybody think I might still have a chance at getting residency? Or should I just accept the fact that this door is closed to me forever now?
I should probably add that I'm a US citizen since I know that can be an issue.
