i am so depressed it was my 2nd attempt and i got76 in step 1 i dont know what to do wt will be my future i am stuck

just relaxed you are not stuck, you are just depressed and its normal esp in 2nd attempt so that ok it happened very commonly. take your time and relaxed and then focus wt you wanna do change your study stretegy and get ideas about ur weak points and accept it as GOD'S wish. thats ok , we all pray for you next time ,1 person in my exp. who passed all steps in almost 10 yrs with full time taxi driving for finance his studies,and now he is doing residency.so take a time and relaxed your mind and then focus

Read through the experiences posted by people who passed the exam. See what resources they used; what their study techniques were. Assess where you went wrong. Make a study plan; stick to it.

Failing the exam doesnt mean you cant pass it the 2nd time around or that you are not smart enough. It just means that you didnt prepare for it in the right way.

Everyone agrees that solving questions is the key. Solve questions; make notes; use RR Goljan. Take and NMBE, reassess. Dont give up. Dont take the exam before you are well prepared. Good luck

im agree with every one ,,,
focus on step 2,, try to get a better scor ,you might need to pass your step 3 as well ,,, you will research , you will do observation , hands on rotation what ever you can do ,,worse case senario you will do familly medicine in urban program , but you will work as a doctor here one day ,,the important thing is doing all your best
relax , focuse on your step 2
good luck
