I just found our i failed step 1. And I'm feeling really lost and hopeless. I'm an IMG and work full time. I was waking up to study at 2 am every day before job and i was feeling so so confident after taking the exam and i really thought i performed good and found out i missed 1 or 2 points to pass. I'm trying to find the strength to start again! I tried this morning but every time I'm trying to sit down and start again i just can't 😓 your words give me a lot of strength and hope. I maybe should take a few days to breathe and start again❤️
Thanks u so much for your words. You are so inspiring. I failed step 1 and I was devastated , now I am studying again and doing my best because I know medicine is the field for me.
Dani Alt I also failed. I failed in 2018, I don’t know what to do now. I feel lost and confused sometimes about my degree. What made you start studying again?
Thanks for that!! I have a low STEP1 score; wanted to be a surgeon since before I started this journey, I kind of settled for my "parallel" program. I think I'll do what you did and apply to what I really want. Thank you
It'sJustNumi do not be discouraged by your low score. Just trust that the score you received will be the one god uses to open doors for you. Trust me!! Just trust god and close your ears to the he or she say. US img here as well, literally BARELY passed Step 1. And I just found out I Matched three weeks ago. Just trust god and the reason you are on this journey. You WILL make it.
It'sJustNumi my apologies for the late reply, but I went to AUIS school of Medicine. And I Matched into Family Medicine. Please, you are open and more than welcome to email me with any questions or just want to connect. May god show you favor on your journey Traceylockhart@gmail.com
Thank you Dr. Griffin. Your story is really inspiring and truly wholesome :) I couldn't have found the video at a better time- it's been pretty rough in med school and it's so true that medicine doesn't stop for life, and we are expected to keep moving with it :) It's great to see success stories like yours! Thank you for posting :)
I’m expecting my Step score on Wednesday and I’m not at ALL looking forward to seeing it. Thank you for this. Preparing for less than ideal circumstances helps ease my mind so your encouragement has been extremely helpful
Black Kids White Coats I passed!! It wasn’t what I was hoping for but honestly with COVID and the protests, I’m glad I passed. I’ll just do my best to do better throughout third year and on Step 2 next year. Thank you again!
oORockDaFroOo Proud of you!!! You did what you could with the circumstances you found yourself in. And yes, do your best well during third year and for step 2. You’re going to be amazing, Keep shining!
Hi , I m an IMG .I passed my graduation (mbbs) in 2014 . I gave usmle step 1 in 2015 but failed . Its been 5 yrs. I want to give all step 1 again. Does gap after graduation matters ? Should i wait upto 2022 so that after 7 yrs from 1st attempt the score doesnt last . Please make me clear . Thanks in advance 😀

Dani Alt you’ve got it 💪🏾💪🏾
Hi Dani I’m in the same position now, did you find anything in particular helpful during your second attempt?
Dani Alt I also failed. I failed in 2018, I don’t know what to do now. I feel lost and confused sometimes about my degree. What made you start studying again?
I just found out I failed my first step one, I feel so disappointed in myself, I’m an IMG but listening to others is helping thank you.
This interview blessed me! God is Good!

My school made me postpone taking boards I feel so defeated.
Great Spotlight, does Dr. Griffin have any social media accounts (Instagram, Twitter, etc.)
How can I contact her? I need advice and encouragement please, I failed step 1. And I’m scared to take it again, I’m not doing well.
Woww, very inspiring. Buh for us IMGs, is it really feasible to get an interview with a failed step 1 ??
