I have started my internship from march 2018 and planned to give step 1 before internship but failed to do so. We don't have the culture of seniors opting for extension of internship. So i am very stressed now as am worrying i will fail to get electives and give step 1 within time afer a lot of hard work. Can you please advise me exactly who i should be talking to in my college and what to say to succesfully get a extension? As in will my graduation year change from 2013 - 18 change from 2013 - 19? Its a government college and these guys are not at all cooperative and want interns doing their duty at any costs. (I don't mind doing duty but I need that extension to give step 1 and then apply for electives.) PLEASE help and give some advice. If possible elaborately? This is a very critical time for me and your help could actually make or break my career. I have memories of seeing your youtube videos while preparing last year. But am feeling its all going to waste now. please help.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005913307053669259.post-15278536276832574682018-04-08T12:19:41.345-04:002018-04-08T12:19:41.345-04:00first give Neet and get a collegefirst give Neet and get a collegeIkaN (Nakeya Dewaswala, M.D.)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03461017124502223040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005913307053669259.post-19079984860050013142018-04-08T12:19:06.423-04:002018-04-08T12:19:06.423-04:00FA and UW should suffice if basic sciences are str...FA and UW should suffice if basic sciences are strong.<br /><br />NBME is a mock test.IkaN (Nakeya Dewaswala, M.D.)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03461017124502223040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005913307053669259.post-82739569615308337142018-04-08T12:17:39.293-04:002018-04-08T12:17:39.293-04:00Why not?Why not?IkaN (Nakeya Dewaswala, M.D.)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03461017124502223040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005913307053669259.post-51813663323930416972018-04-08T09:02:36.273-04:002018-04-08T09:02:36.273-04:00Hii

I have taken kaplan coaching but because of insufficient time i couldnt complete the entire course and it got expired and then i had my finals. However i completed four subject. And that means only the lecture notes. They didnt provide me with the FA. Now that im free from exams i am planning to study seriously for usmle because i want to give it right after i am done with final year. How do i start ? Where should i purchase the first aid from? And is FA and UW qbank sufficient? Or should i purchase other books as well?And what is NBME?

In that case, away rotations is a good explanation. <br /><br />Interviewers are unaware of the number of years required in medical school for graduation - they are unlikely to ask this question (some schools graduate after 6 years, some after 8 years)<br />IkaN (Nakeya Dewaswala, M.D.)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03461017124502223040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005913307053669259.post-60427018420740656152018-03-04T15:15:01.942-05:002018-03-04T15:15:01.942-05:00hello sir, i am an IMG from INDIA.
