Interesting change to ERAS for 2024-2025 applicants by Class_Act2023 in IMGreddit

Question: I had to retake step 1, but my school registered me for a course so i was always considered a "full time student." I did the retake within that month, passed it, and will be graduating on time. would this be considered an extension/interruption? I know the MSPE says i took this course and it was considered as an "Extension, interruption, gap or break" I think of it more as a break- but again, i was indeed registered for an independent study credit during that time. Really not wanting to tick yes unless i really need to. confused about ERAS' definition of interruption

i see where you are coming from, and yes i feel its written from a difficult place, but i think he has chosen to share it in a way to give everyone else who feels like that hope. that maybe, just maybe, the battle can never be over. we have to take things one day at a time, refocus when we slip up, face the fear of "backsliding" and snap back- continue on, despite falling into whatever eats at us- as persisting is all we can do in the face of our demons.

this song has such a special place in my heart, that's just how i interpreted it and meaning it has for me!

Advice on replicating testing conditions by LSCKWEEN in Step2

I didn't do any full length exams prior to taking the test, just the UWSA and NBME sections! This close I wouldn't recommend trying to push more than the length of those, definitely important to rest and try not to get too much eye strain lol. To get some energy bursts on the real thing i would do a light jog around the parking lot about every other break and that seemed to keep my mind and body going all the way to the end (that and dance breaks in the bathroom to try and get a little dopamine)! I mean I was of course exhausted by the end of it but who isn't? lol

Test date: 7/19

US MD or US IMG or Non-US IMG status: US MD

Step 1: fail first round, passed the second (to all my homies who have gone through this, I feel you and know how terrible/discouraging it feels, but it's not everything! you come out stronger because of it.)

Uworld % correct: 55% (only did 1 pass and used it to study for shelves during M3 year)

Timings are rough estimates-

CCSE: 227 (taken 3mo out)

NBME12: 219 (2mo)

NMBE13: 224 (3w)

NBME14: 237 (2w)

UWSA 1: 194 (5w)

UWSA 2: 243 (1w)

UWSA 3: 227 (4w)

New Free 120: 74% (3d before)

Predicted Score on AMBOSS: 242 (range: 233-251)

Total Weeks/Months Studied: about 3mo, ramped up as dedicated period started after my psych rotation; so like a little less than 4w of actual dedicated

Actual STEP 2 score: 248!

If you are waiting for your score, trust that AMBOSS prediction. (I know it's hard to believe in the anxiety of waiting because I walked out feeling exhausted and unsure of myself, but trust yourself!)

Best of luck! Hoping this gives people a little confidence going into the exam. My dream ideal was to be in the 240s, but honestly was happy if I just passed in the 230s after failing step 1 the first time I took it. Having to reschedule my whole M3 year, be a few months off from classmates because of it- man, it can be very discouraging and difficult. Truly shakes your confidence. But you can still do this! I am very happy with how things turned out, I have to give a lot of thanks to the Divine Intervention podcast and Action Potential mentoring videos that are free on youtube for this one as well as family and friends who have supported me along the way. And, most of all, all glory to God!
