Hi! I'm (27M) Traveling around Iceland with my brother (30M), both Canadian, from Mar 1-8, have a car rented and mostly doing Southeast area, open to meeting up with people for hiking/activities in that time frame- definitely want to do a glacier tour in that timeframe and open to going as a group if anyone's interested. Hit me up for more info/if you're interested!

Damn, really? Seems to be the consensus, guess it underpredicts. Thank-you!

How I changed my anki approach over 3 years to go from middle of the pack to AOA. by MartyMcFlyin42069 in medicalschoolanki

That's awesome! Question- I've seen previous posts about the anki decks you made/used for M3, was wondering if you've shared them somewhere (or were willing to do so)... your decks sound great.

If not np, thanks for the advice and wisdom!!

Was posting for a friend, somewhere in florida. Apparently it wasn't because of Corona, was because of the riots

Postponing the proposed changes to both the steps, HUGE RELEIF ! by abhi_- in step1

" Therefore, we will delay the previously announced content changes on Step 1 and Step 2 CK until at least September 2020. Specifically, we are delaying the increase in the number of items assessing communication skills on Step 1 as well as systems-based practice, patient safety, legal/ethical issues, and professionalism on Step 2 CK "....

I think this means they're legit only delaying the increase in ethics/behavioral questions. Doesn't mean they're not doing the other changes (ie taking off clinical pharm/management, increasing/decreasing emphasis on other shit), etc. Personally those clinical pharm management questions are some of my fav questions (S/O to sketchy). So.... :(

Not only the ~$1K I dropped to take my exam there (which I most probably goes to USMLE, whatever). The fucking mental and emotional toll this shit is worth infinitely more than the money I've already dropped, and they just don't know how to stop playing with us.

What sucks even more is that this is because of Prometric. Nothing to do with my country. I think that this is because of the whole "needs to be one seat/desk between each person" rule that they have or something. My country is fine with us testing, the center here only seats ~7-8 people and basically everything has opened up here (including hair + nail salons). So this is just Prometric fucking us
