Hello! Hope this message finds everyone well.

I'm a 3rd year getting my D.O. and applying for psychiatry through the M.D./allopathic match (still trying figure out exactly *where*). I took USMLE Step 1 and made a 238.

Should I take the Step 2? Trying to decide if it's very important...rumor was that Step 1 is more important, although I don't know how true that rumor is.

Thanks a lot in advance!
