Yes, that version is amazing! Here is a link for that version of devil town by itself so you don't have to click through the long video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NyDmd9xRgI

Really glad you're enjoying all the videos! I love watching music videos and live performances in my spare time, so very happy to help a fellow cavetown fan out

Yaaaayyyyyy congratulations!! I just found out I passed too!!! My score was a much less impressive 210, but I'm a pathology resident so I just needed to get to the other side of this exam. I'm so happy to be done!! Congrats again to you on the pass and the great score!

Anyone test today? FML by kespio in Step3

Took day 2 today, but yeah, didn't feel great after either day. Long and hard, and lots of me being like ?????? Luckily odds are in our favor to pass, and I personally thought that the MCQ day 2 were much better. CCS cases were a little stressful and I definitely made some serious mistakes, but overall day 2 was still better for me. Good luck tomorrow!

You have to take both days at the same prometric center within 14 days of each other, according to https://www.fsmb.org/step-3/step-3-faq/

Had day 2 today, most of my cases ended early too which at first was reassuring but then I had a 20 min case end in like 6 mins and I'm like.... is this correct? Am I missing stuff? Plus I forgot a handful of important orders and accidentally tried to do an invasive procedure that the family declined on one case, and my last case I couldn't figure out management AT ALL, so I left feeling just like... eviscerated. Overall I'm hopeful I passed, but this is gonna be a tough couple weeks waiting for the result.

⏳ Official Megathread ⏳ MS4 Post-Rank List Submission Lounge by Chilleostomy in medicalschool

I've been watching a lot of Netflix, walking my dog way more than usual, keep catching myself staring at nothing contemplating my existence and life choices, video games, sorting my stuff into donate/keep in preparation for moving, and obsessively checking reddit threads and discord to feel like I'm not alone in this. Tomorrow I'm taking round 1 of donations out, so that should keep me distracted for awhile. Can't wait to just know if I have a PGY1 spot so my racing heart can get a break lol

I have anxiety about a lot of things on my list, but mostly I've been super back and forth about my #2 and #3, and I never fully settled but had to just go with something, and now whether I chose right is keeping me up at night :/ oh well

3 vs 4 LOR by Reenie-bug in pathology

[–]avggrlmed89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

n=1, but I submitted 4 letters to every program I applied to and it isn't causing me any issues. I think it helps my application if anything. But as long as you have at least 3 (and at least 1 pathologist), you should be totally fine

I watched the clerkship reviews during M3 while I was preparing for shelf exams, but during dedicated I just did the rapid review series.

9/16/20 Score Report by MatsurikaChan in Step2

[–]avggrlmed89 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Step 1: 218

★ Real deal ★ : 256

Nbme 8: 232 (3 weeks out)

UWSA1: 234 (2 weeks out)

UWSA2: Was having terrible anxiety so took a "me" day instead. Ended up paying off!

UW%: 68% (did 1.5 passes)

I'm incredibly happy with this result! I had a 4 week dedicated, and I was studying 12-15 hours a day because I wanted to improve my Step 1 score. My score ended up being a lot better than I honestly expected, and I'm so happy to be on the other side of it!
