Don't tell the programs..., unless you checked automatic usmle transcript retransmission on myERAS then they will automatically get your result....

I would suggest to get done with ivs and then focus competly on s3..., although u can still stuydy between ivs....

I don't know the details...., time you study, % on question banks, actual test score..., so plan accordinlgy to those...

Hi sisi: I would suspect you got shortlisted with out step 3 backing you. So don't lose hope and keep preparing for the IV's.

If you don't mind can you tell us don'ts and do's for step 3.

Good luck to you, don't lose hope and thanks.
