DO student here.
I was initially signed up to take both Step 1 (July 5th, after pushing it back from June 12th) and COMLEX (June 23rd). I took COMLEX but I was emotionally, mentally and physically defeated afterwards. I ended up canceling my Step 1 the day after my COMLEX with the thinking if I failed COMLEX how could I pass Step 1.
Ended up with a 600+ on COMLEX.
I have the opportunity to extend my eligibility period for my test permit until the end of October. However, I am about to start rotations tomorrow and have no idea what that will be like, on top of trying to study for Step 1 (again).
Top fields I am currently interested in are general surgery, EM, and neuro but not entirely set on anything yet.
Any advice or insight is appreciated.
