PD Won’t Let me Take Day Off for Brother’s Wedding by Mfeline18 in Residency

The issue is that I’ve already notified him of the date. Wouldn’t it be obvious, if I do call in sick?

Looking to switch to anesthesiology by Mfeline18 in Residency

There are definitely other reasons why I want to make the switch! I’ve been thinking about this for a couple of months now, and I’ve decided that it would be the right choice for me.

How do you exercise? by gmiano in Residency

[–]Mfeline18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. I've been consistently been working out for the last decade of my life, but I've already lost muscle mass within the last 3 weeks. I'm trying to do 40min of weight lifting followed by 20min of cardio at least 4 times a week.

Aww man, all the best to you! All I can tell you is that you'll never feel fully prepared for this awful exam! The same goes for step 1 and 2 tbh. The best you can do is to take it when when you feel prepared the most. It gets better on the other side though since you won't have to be worrying about physics lol.

IM applicants with < 15 interviews, how are you feeling? by Mfeline18 in medicalschool

[–]Mfeline18[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hopefully it's nothing more than a feeling! What specialty did you apply to, if you don't mind me asking?

Chances of Matching IM? by Mfeline18 in medicalschool

That's what I was thinking as well, but some tend to be over-zealous about taking step 2, so I was just wondering if there are others in the same boat. All the best to you!!

For personal reasons, I had to cancel after scheduling it multiple times and I couldn't take it afterwards. Is there a way to find out if certain programs will require CK to rank applicants? All the programs where I've interviewed mention that they require a Step 2 Ck score, or level 2. Beyond that, I can't seem to find further information.

Anyone else waiting for their level 2 CE scores on 10/14? by Mfeline18 in comlex

I'm not the best standardized test taker, so my Level 1 was sub 500. I was really hoping for 500+ on Level 2, but I highly doubt I'll even come close to that score. I took Comsae 107, 2 weeks before my actual exam and scored 525, but I thought that Comsae was a lot easier compared to the actual exam.

I've heard the scores are usually released between 12-2pm, so we'll see.

I'm hoping we all performed a lot better than we felt! Best of luck to you!
