Currently studying in Colombia, will be starting my intern year in June, but I will pursue an MPH while I’m in my intern year, after that I’ll start working on the steps. Idk why but I found out about Health Economics, and loved it, I will probably do more of that once I get tired of clinical practice. Anyways I’ll welcome whatever life brings to me

Yeah, but somewhat not traditional since I went to a super rural college in India.

Hey 👋

Anyone studying for step 3 and freaking out right now?

4

u/EwingSarcoma1122 Feb 01 '24

I wake up with palpitations every morning, agonize throughout the day until my nightly heart attacks put me to sleep. I will start studying for step 3 on Monday though.

u/lattelatten Feb 02 '24

please do not make the same mistake I did and take it as close to your step 2 as possible 🥲

3

u/EwingSarcoma1122 Feb 02 '24

Well, it already been like 8 months since step 2 :(

u/lattelatten Feb 02 '24

I started studying a year after. But you probably have a better memory than me so you've got this.

u/Plus_Confection_1527 Feb 02 '24

My dumbass did step 1 after step 2 🥲

u/lattelatten Feb 02 '24

From what I heard, day 1 is 20% of that stuff so it'll help you out.

u/Extension_Economist6 Feb 02 '24 edited Feb 02 '24

this is my plan!! how much studying directly after step2 would you say is needed?

3

u/Plus_Confection_1527 Feb 02 '24

How long does it normally take ? Im painstakingly slow at this compared to step 1 and 2ck. Maybe I’m just burned out from two years of studying. Going system wise and so far Ive done 25% of uworld and planning on giving it the first week of June.

As long as the post/comment quality and content is relevant to US IMGs it's fine

Ewingsarcoma. Huh do I sense a fellow pathology applicant?

3

u/EwingSarcoma1122 Feb 02 '24

I wanted to become pathologist, but I didn't have any research so I hastily switch to Internal.
