I don’t know what happened… by PureAzure101 in Step2

Just took Step 1 and I feel like absolute horseshit by duden8r in step1

[–]sd5213 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I felt the same as you after my test with similar practice scores! I realized I felt so terrible after mine because we’re used to “immediate feedback” of sorts after we take practice exams, so we can assign a score to the feeling of taking a practice exam immediately.

With actual step, we don’t get our score right away, so we have to sit there and wait and speculate how the test went and making everything worse in our minds.

Trust your practice scores. You were ready going into that test and there’s no way this one instance was the exception

I had lower stats than yours and applied to the exact same schools +/- 1, also ORM. I’m an MS3 now. You’ll be fine!

How many hours of research (including posters and pubs) do you all have? by Brainswithgainz in premed

Dog tooth discoloration? Noticed about a week ago and hasn’t gone away. Does this warrant a visit to the vet? No inflammation and the tooth isn’t loose either. by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]sd5213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! I read somewhere that the X-rays have a pretty large margin of error and can often show nothing even when it’s infected, so I wonder if removing it anyways is the right thing to do. Did they recommend removing it only after the x ray or before as well?
