Retake your Step 1 - you know what went wrong so fixing the problem won't be hard... study well... take the exam after NBME indicates a good score (a score over 90 will help "excuse" your failure) Study and score well on the other steps! Research and apply wisely, widely, and early come Application season! The question of your step 1 failure will surely come up on interview day - be prepared to have good explanations... Use this forum - it has so much info - read the threads of the steps you are preparing and you will find what resources to use and how to use them... besides it helps to know people are going through the same struggles you are... Good luck! ___________________ There is one thing we can do, and the happiest people are those who can do it to the limit of their ability. We can be completely present. We can be all here. We can give all our attention to the opportunity before us!!!
