it is absolutely necessary that @TheUSMLE allow medical schools to proctor step 1, and embarrassing this has not been permitted yet

as various states open, students with $$ to spend will begin traveling to open prometrics in states with relaxed shelter in place requirements

this is just another example of how wealth predicts success in Med school

students that can’t afford $$ will wait in dedicated purgatory

if you are an organization that claims to care at all about medical students’ health and well-being, you should be concerned about how you’re forcing them into a heinous holding pattern of anki decks and first aid

@TheUSMLE not allowing medical students to test at their schools contributes to distribution that will occur when M2s who delayed entering clinical time and M1s have to complete clinical requirements at the same time

it is quite the indictment of medical school educators and administrative professionals to assume they are less equipped to proctor the exam than prometric staff members
