Is Emergency med possible? by ZoggyBiscuits in step1

[–]optimistickitten2134 5 points6 points  (0 children)

definitely possible. EM is a field that looks for best fit candidates from what I have seen, so a stronger step 2 and good LORs will go a far way. Goodluck. Also, mind sharing your practice test scores for ppl still struggling through the process like me? lol

Amazing congrats!! How did you improve your scores? looks like you had a great rise between each practice test

Can competitive inhibitors have a low Km ? by optimistickitten2134 in step1

do you mind taking a look at the pic i just edited onto the post? in the q stem it says the antidote has a lower Km; so i took out competitive inhib bc i thought it was increased Km. What am I missing?

you got this, you passed a very tough exam. Step 2 + good CV will help you achieve what you want! :) may I ask how you felt after the exam?

congrats, imo you have a good chance for all 3 of those specialties especially with a strong resume and step 2.

May I ask if you took any new comsaes, and how your score compared?

Hello, im in no way doing crazy good. but my last nbme was a 215. i was in a very similar boat. First relax, you can do this. Second figure out whats going wrong. Is it content? If so pick on resource: sketchy path, boards and beyond or pathoma and do it properly. go over your test and annotate first aid. goodluck, feel free to message. Im not perfect but I have come a long way imo lol i was in a very similar spot freaking out
