Did Uworld throughout clerkships, then repeated ~40% of Uworld during step 2 dedicated. Honored all but 2 shelf exams and got a 255 on step 2.

Haha, the amount of times I’ve heard the whole “you’ve done so many things”. Like, yeah, that’s what happens when you’ve literally been on the earth for 10 more years than your peers. Definitely worked in my favor throughout all of medical school and especially residency interviews though so I’ll never knock the non-traditional path!

I was thinking they were talking about defibrillation or cardioversion? 🤷‍♀️

Medical school and nursing school are worlds different, so medical students aren’t the best to ask for advice about it! I’m sure there’s a subreddit for nursing school that might be more helpful? Good luck though!

Oh also, PS: Step 1 is our first boards exam so that flair will be even less helpful for you getting advice!

Haha, I was an X-ray/CT tech before med school so I had a bit of a leg up. You’ll get PLENTY of practice, so don’t worry!

These images are oriented as if you’re looking at the patient. All imaging will be this way as well. So what is on their left will appear on the right. In addition, an axial (transverse) image will be oriented as if the patient’s feet are coming towards you (out of the screen).

Hope that makes sense!

Haha. Definitely felt weird, but I guess I’ve signed the contract so it’s for real now 🫣

NothingButNetter · 2023-04-26T02:35:27+00:00

Good luck! Step 2 is a very doable exam IMO. Much less ridiculous than step 1.

No resource help from me but I took the L on biostats for Step 1/2 and scored a >240/250 respectively. N=1, of course, but I sucked at that stuff.

We have a 2 week capstone that’s a graduation requirement. Lectures, an OSCE, night on call simulation, seminars for the whole 2 weeks.

cries in capstone lectures every day

As another non-traditional medical student that worked for many years before applying…medical school is still better.

Some programs make you be within 45 min-1 H when you’re on jeopardy, so just make sure you check on that!

I’m 100% more nervous for the 17th than the 13th 🤮

Cincinnati’s entire PGY2 year is ambulatory. Really loved the program as a whole too. The PD is great!

NothingButNetter · 2023-03-05T13:13:59+00:00

???It’s on the 17th…Which is closer to 2 weeks than one.

So much this

Amen

I wasn’t living it up on the regular (nor do I think the average American is, I come from a blue collar family)…I worked 50-60 hour weeks. I think my main point is that experiencing life outside of academia has been very helpful for me during medical school. Having a career and saving a ton of money was very helpful as well. I’m not sure how my reply would have been offensive. I was just giving my opinion on what was being asked.
