Hi there,
So I have just graduated from a foreign medical school. I am American. So I'm just taking about a month off after grad to relax a little. Then I'm starting this intense USMLE STEP 1 course. It starts middle of July and ends the first week of November. I want to get the best score possible. So ideally I'd be taking STEP 1 in November and STEP 2 perhaps a month after (December). Clearly I'll be missing deadlines. Just wondering, can I still apply for residency? I've heard a lot about something called applying out of match.
Wondering if someone can answer my query. Thanks!
