Hey All,

I scored well on step 1, have step 2 ck scheduled for end of december...am looking to applying to top programs so don't want any red-flags on my application...

question is....when should I take step 2 CS? if I fail, but retake and pass do programs see that I took it twice? Will that in itself be a red flag that I took it twice because I failed the first time?

Thanks in advanced!

My opinion is if you did well on step 1 then take the step 2s so your score will be released after eras is in so if you do fail you have some buffer and isn't on your application
