To the Uber-docs of SDN:
As a DO student who has taken COMLEX, but not USMLE, and is applying to IM programs (both allo and osteopathic) across the country, would I improve my chances of matching if I take USMLE Step2?
Also, since we can take the USMLE Steps independent of each other, which exam holds more weight, in the eyes of program directors?
I am more likely to take Step2, since it will be a continuation of the clinical studying and rotations I have been doing thus far.
Thanks.
