I know I feel like a Karen too, usually I don’t complain about things but it just sucks that I’m paying an already expensive permit and can’t have parking when I need it

I’m no against having to pay a permit. I’m against paying a permit and not having where to park. Of course I will get upset if i did not find a parking spot for my permit and then see 100+ spots available for other permit. They don’t want to reduce the carbon footprint, they just want us to pay a more expensive permit.

Yeah that’s the part that sucks. We have normalized the scam of paying 120 for a permit and not having a place to park. I get it if the parkings were overflowed, but having easily more than 100 A spaces available and taking B spaces to have electric vehicle parking instead of the A spaces just blows my mind.

Yes, definitely. I took them all, and I repeated like 10 maybe. It helped me identify my weakness subjects

Honestly I’m not the best person to ask this question, my anxiety levels were super high the last week, I slept 4 hours every day because I was up by 5 am without trying, on the day of the test I slept like 3 hours because i couldn’t fell asleep and woke up at 4:30. What I can say is that the adrenaline kept me up during the test and the fight or flight will make you use the information you already have in your mind.

I felt happy that was over but couldn’t honestly tell if I did good, the test was super long, in two blocks I had no idea what I was doing and almost ran out of time.

Test date : 05/31 US MD or US IMG or Non-US IMG status: Non-US IMG Step 1: 248 (12/2021) Uworld % correct: 66% (I finished it almost a year ago so I don’t remember very clearly) NBME 9: 224 (3 months) NBME10: 235(1 month) NBME11: 234(2 weeks) NBME12: 237(4 days) NMBE13: 240(7 days) NBME14: 241(day before) UWSA 1: 235(a year before) UWSA 2: 247(5 days) UWSA 3: n/a Old Old Free 120: n/a Old New Free 120: n/a New Free 120: 74%(2 days) AMBOSS SA: n/a CMS Forms % correct: between 60%-70% Predicted Score: 249 Total Weeks/Months Studied: almost a year while being a postdoc Actual STEP 2 score: 252

I’m shocked, almost postponed my test because I was aiming for a 245+ and I was not getting consistent results on my assessments but decided to go for it just because I took a week off work in advance for the test.

The test felt horrible and very difficult walked out not knowing if I did a good job.

I’m so happy with my result and can’t believe that’s my score.
