In 2004, 93% of first time Step1-takers from MD schools passed.
I know it's all very scary now and I am starting to see the threads of people getting worried.
Guess what? You're going to make it. Why? Because you made it this far.
People probably told you college would be "sooooo hard," but you made it.
"Ok, college was tough, but the MCAT! The MCAT is really going to kill you!" You made it over that hurdle too.
"Now getting into med school, THAT is hard," but you did it.
"Ok, ok, enough playing around, anatomy is where we're really going to separate the sheep from the goats." All of you passed.
"First year was a piece of cake, you guys will splatter when you hit M2." Umm, it's January now, you're still here.
For most of you, this is going to be a test of HOW WELL YOU DO, not if you pass.
I got 41% on my first random 50q set on Qbank too. I also wondered if 4 weeks was enough time just like you are. I felt guilty just as guilty as you did when I watched TV instead of studying. My final score would be competitive at the best Plastic Surgery residency in the coutry.
Bottom line: you're going to be ok.
PM me if you need moral support.
