Can you push back the USMLE even if your third year starts the day after your scheduled to take the test?

Bump. Guys it isn't a hard question...

Yes
No
Depends on your school

Depends on your school. UAMS requires us to have taken (not necessarily passed) Step 1 for the first time by July 31 of the year we start rotations, but I am aware of at least 2 schools that only require you to have passed by the time you graduate.

Thanks Milkman

School dependant. We have to pass before we start 3rd year. So we need enough time for our scores to come back.
