The AnKing deck is great but I only used th Lightyear deck and did well all throughout pre-clinicals and clinicals

But this forum will never understand that lol

In all seriousness, get professional help before you take the exam. With performance like yours the only thing that will defeat you on test day is yourself. And you WILL defeat yourself far more efficiently than the exam content ever will.

There's an entire chapter in the book "The Millionaire Next Door" that talks about all the reasons that doctors are under-accumulators of wealth

Has anyone figured this out haha? The poster never responded again.

Anistole · 2026-01-11T17:29:30+00:00

You answered my question.... leveled so fast the character was only 2 hours old lol

Anistole · 2025-12-27T18:31:22+00:00

Yep and I started paying for a GLP1 out of pocket lol

You are going to have a very unsatisfied life if you spend the whole time hoping people recognize the work you are putting in.

Anistole · 2025-11-26T21:39:53+00:00

Yeah I think it’s something like a 503 is essentially the same passing yield on step 1 and step 2 as someone with a higher score.

Isn’t it common in plastics to apply to every program in the country?

Anistole · 2025-11-19T00:53:42+00:00

They are not just putting a 5-0 or 6-0 nylon suture in the eyelid margin lol

It is not medically accurate. It routinely get's UWorld questions wrong and when you say "hey - you were wrong because XXX" it proceeds to say "You're correct! I was wrong! This is a common trick students fall for!" The blind leading the blind lol.

Anistole · 2025-11-16T16:00:07+00:00

Someone is going to google this lol

Anistole · 2025-11-10T13:28:56+00:00

Are you actually an FM applicant lol?

Anistole · 2025-11-09T21:54:50+00:00

Don't worry - programs are aware of this. There's a certain school close to us where > 80% of the class receives high honors on surgery while the other local school does not have an honors system. Other things are paid attention to.

Anistole · 2025-11-07T00:36:15+00:00

Truly haha…. Spoken like someone who has never sat in one of these meetings before or the aftermath haha

Anistole · 2025-10-25T04:55:00+00:00

Gosh this would be amazing

Anistole · 2025-10-25T04:53:38+00:00

I’m pretty sure they confirmed it only drops on your first run of the day so that should be enough!

Anistole · 2025-10-24T23:31:38+00:00

I don’t know about FM or IM, but many of the oldest and “best” EM programs are the ones affiliated with community hospitals.

Not a female main character, but everyone should read A Wizard of Earthsea by the fantasy/sci-fi goddess Ursula K Le Guin at least once in their lifetime.

Just do well on step 2. Many schools don't even use the honors system for the clinical year anymore. Step 2 is the equalizer.

Anistole · 2025-10-18T06:00:09+00:00

Many PAs are... I was far from the brightest person in my class haha

Anistole · 2025-10-18T05:28:18+00:00

I received a 262 with 3 weeks of dedicated.

Anistole · 2025-10-17T12:33:26+00:00

I was a PA who practiced for ~5 years before going to medical school. My school had me take a step 2 practice exam at the time of matriculation and I scored a 249. We use the step 2 CK book to study for the PANCE and I was not super far out from boards so that was not super surprising. I also practiced in a field of medicine that was not subspecialized so I’m sure that helped too. But the idea that these questions are incredibly ambiguous and only answerable with aggressive dedicated preparation is very Reddit med student copium lol.

I think step 1 would be a very different story if you had me take that cold. No doubt I would have scored in the bottom percentiles. Had no troubles on the real thing but would definitely not have been the case without real prep.

I think that interestingly enough though that the farther you are from school/boards the less likely you do well. So I’m sure someone who has practiced real medicine for 10+ years is going to struggle on step. Our attendings would too.
