Test is over with...

Step 1 of the USMLE that is.... In order to get a medical license in the U.S. you have to pass 3 steps of what's called the United States Medical Licensing Exam, and none of them are much fun at all. They pretty much exist in order to determine what kind of residency you can get as well as just making sure you know what you're doing in order to become a doctor. The first step of it pretty much covers everything that is taught in the first two years of medical school and then some, which is an enormous amount of material. People usually take two months off from whatever they're doing just to study for this test. It's over with now. I can go back to normal business as usual, and also have a little bit more fun occasionally now too. I'm still on Family Practice and will be for another 3 weeks.. More on that later.
