[QUOTE="mvenus929, post: 12438931, member: 106435"] In the sense that each question is a clinical vignette, yes. But that doesn't mean you need to know the minutae in the question in order to take care of the patient in the vignette. And I took Step 1 4 months ago. I would hate to have to study for Step 1 while being on clinical rotations. I can barely keep up with the studying I need for the rotation itself. And a lot of schools don't start (and thus end) third year until July, so that'd mean they'd get their Step 1 scores around the time they're applying for residency. At least knowing what I got on Step 1 can help me get into opportunities at an earlier time (research, etc), and I can focus more on what I want to go into during third year, rather than what I might or might not be eligible for based on board scores. Of course, we take Step 1 in January, and start rotations at the end of February. So I guess if we just dived right into rotations in January, we could go a full year and have plenty of time to take off and study for Step 1 and Step 2 during 'fourth' year. [/QUOTE]
