:oops:
HI!!! I'm a physician from colombia, my story is pretty sad, I took step 1 and scored an 80 and passed the CSA but I have failed twice step 2 with a score of 73/177 on both tests.
Hey guys!!!! Do you think I have a chance for a neurology program?
Please if someone knows about somebody else with this situation who actually got into a residency please let me know!!!
Thanks.

Hi

This can be quite a problem. Try a lot of preliminary programs as well. Or you can do Internal Medicine and later switch to Neurology, since it is the same internship in most places.

How can you take CSA before step2? it is impossible

As a matter of fact I took the step 2 and after that I took the CSA on philadelphia. You should ask.

step2 is not a requirement for CSA so if anyone has passed step1, they can take CSA after that. check ecfmg.org for details

Congratulations about your step 1 and CS, you will see soon a good result in your step 2, good luck in your next test!
In my case it's has been also a "calvario" to trying to do the tests. I would like to talk to you about it, I am having a really hard time.
