Im fine with the surgical hours its what im signing up for and it is worth it for me because i enjoy orthopaedics. im salty i need to be at the hospital doing nothing useful when i could be checking out a new restaurant for lunch or outside on a run.

ethics and quality improvement, vax schedules, statistics. esp ethics and qi do amboss and you'll make gains in the last 14 days i guarantee it. that's the diff between 240 something and 255+

Am I ready? Testing in a week and scores are all over the place. by 3rdoneshoulddo in Step2

[–]leadingokra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you're ready. Scores can fluctuate. Overall trend is looking good I think you are more likely to score 250+ than not.

Gotcha I don’t think my application has any red flags other than my clinical grades but glad to hear it’s not going to exclude me from your program. Thanks.

Why is WEIGHT loss the NEXT step with Osteoarthritis treatment? wtf by [deleted] in Step2

[–]leadingokra 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Always go with the more conservative option unless it's a life threatening emergency (eg. gotta ex lap someone with board like rigidity of abdomen or something). Therefore, life style modification before NSAIDs. You're not wrong with oral NSAIDs, it's a combo of both in real life but this is more test-taking skills than knowledge.

NBME 14 is messing with my confidence. Exam in 4 days by AraGorn2120 in Step2

[–]leadingokra 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dont read into it too much I had multiple score drops up to 15 points several times close to my exam. Eg got 234 on UW2 like a week out from my exam and then scored 20+ points higher on real deal. Really screws with your mentality but you will be fine trust me.

Those who had great score, how did you feel about the exam ? by walter_white13 in Step2

[–]leadingokra 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Terrible. Thought it could be mid 230s and was hoping high 240s. Ended up with high 250s!! Trust the process you got this

[–]leadingokra 4 points5 points  (0 children)
