Not surprised at all. I have friends still in med school. Apparently there’s an exam called the Step 1 where you can only take it once, and if you pass but don’t do well enough then you get shipped to somewhere not great to do your residency. I thought the hardest part was the MCAT but I was totally wrong :(
- assblaster 7y agoStep 1 can be retaken, along with all the other exams of the USMLE.
- yingw787 7y agoYou’re right; you can retake the Step 1 up to six times. However, you can retake it if you fail, you can’t retake if you pass. AFAIR that’s what my friends were worried about; you can retake if you fail but if you were planning on failing why retake it. It’s the pass with a low score that sends you to a bad place.
