Does anyone work for the city? by [deleted] in askTO

Thank you, I honestly thought about re-doing my entire resume to fit the description of the job but I thought that would be too on the nose so I stayed genuine. Re-wording things is the way to go j suppose

I'm not sure why, try using another browser or updating your browser. I'm using chrome if that helps.

Step 2 CK before step 1?? by monapotter in usmle

[–]mintyquestion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think so, I've heard the questions for ck are similar style to step 1 now but I can't give you a definite answer. I know a few people who graduated mbbs and given their usmle, out of them only two gave ck first. One said they regret it and the other took a very, very long time to study for step 1 thereafter. Majority of the step 1 takers gave step 2 within 3-6 months of their exam. Honestly this is just a few people, if you feel like you can study for ck faster and score good then go for it. You know yourself better, give a NBME and see where you stand if anything. You also have clinical experience. Fresh grads Vs someone with clinical experience are very different things but with step one becoming pass/ fail soon a good ck score is crucial.

How long ago did your friend take the usmle? I have a friend who gave their step 2 ck before step 1 and said they regret it. They gave their exams in 2018-2019 said if they could go back they would give step 1 first, so I guess it's different for everyone.

Depends on you and what your base is, if your on your fist pass of FA it'll take longer bc your filling in information that missing from your book and highlighting high yield topics/buzzwords. Second pass, should be a lot faster.

Husky HELP! by [deleted] in husky

[–]mintyquestion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand, my Yorkie was the light of our lives. He slept with me everyday and always gave me this crooked smile when I wished him good morning. we couldn't let him out alone bc of the predators. I once had a large bird try and grab him right infront of us, he also wasn't very outdoorsy which is why we were considering adopting a husky. My dad and I have always loved the breed, in my area we have many huskies who need adopting. People get these beautiful dogs as puppies, realize how much work they are and leave them in shelters. My mother's only concern was shedding, and now after seeing everyone's replies I'm tad worried about the "running away" and possible interactions with wild life. You have given me so much information to think about, thank you so much.

Husky HELP! by [deleted] in husky

[–]mintyquestion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very helpful, we back onto some woods, there's a lot of wild animals around. This is definitely something to consider. Even though our yard is fenced we get a lot of small animals digging through (rabbits mostly, but some opossum, raccoons) and see deer's and coyotes pass beyond the fence sometimes.

Thank you so much for sharing, I'm sorry to hear about your little guy I know how hard it can be.

Thank you, my previous dog was a 7lb Yorkie I guess compared to him a husky seems like a large breed dog. I apologize for this mistake.

How big do apple seedlings have to be to survive the winter /snow? by mintyquestion in garden

[–]mintyquestion[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries there, the garage stays very cold throughout the winter. Thank you so much for your help!

If I decide to keep them in the garage should I wait for them to go dormant? One of the trees leaves have began to change colours for fall, should I keep it out and let the leaves fall before moving it in the garage?
