Post Exam Era

The exam has long been over and the result is out. I know a considerable amount of time has passed since then, but when did I ever post in time, or for that matter, when do I ever post anything!

I passed with an excellent score of 99 on a two-point scale and a pretty average score of 242 on three-point scale. I know, although, they both are the same, only the people who are seriously into this business (read: IMGs who are struggling to get into residencies) can understand the huge difference between the two. I can continue to rant on how difficult it is these days to get an interview and then MATCH, for a visa-requiring person, but I'll leave that aside for the time being.

(For the uninitiated, here is a link to the scoring pattern of USMLE)

But for now, it is time to get ahead and study hard for USMLE Step 2 CK. However, I am tired of studying. It has been a lil' more than 8 years for me, and that is all I am doing (or to be true: worrying about) and I have no idea as to when this will end. You can't blame me for sure!

On a happy note: Clinical subjects are much better to study then the Biochemistry and the Physiology! And on some level, I like Medicine!
