	I did it!
	Angel, on the phone with me this afternoon, post-Curves (I went!): You have something here from the National Board of Medical Examiners. I told him to open it. My Step II scores are back. A passing score is 182, or 75 on the 2-digit scale. I got a 243. On the 2-digit, I got a 98. Most scores, it says, fall between 140 and 260. The mean is approximately 216, standard deviation approximately 23. The tails of the bars on my performance profile dip down to Borderline for a very few; for the most part they were firmly ensconced in "Higher Performance". I did it, O Best Beloved. I passed, and more than passed. I popped a full standard deviation above the mean. Hallelu. now feeling:: ecstatic

After all that business about only needing to just pass....

You're not allowed to worry about test scores ever again.

Congratulations!

Holy crap! DAMNNNN Nykki, you're good!!

Two questions though:

1. What's your secret?

2. And will you take my USMLEs for me?

:-)

Congratulations!

1) Questions, of course. Lots and lots and lots and lots of practise tests.

2) You find me a hot Asian girl and ship her over as a down payment, and we'll talk ;)

I'm almost two years out from medical school, here in Indiana where I was born and grew up. I used to write poetry - still do, sometimes - but now I've taken to spilling my heart out in prose. I'm balancing family, expecting a new baby, and working as a second-year family medicine resident. I'd like to take you along for the ride.

My updates are erratic, dependent on my mood, my current work schedule, and my ability to motivate myself. You are warned.

Expect a narrative of my days on shift. Anticipate good experiences and bad. Almost everything I write, personal or not, is a public entry, so be prepared for things that you don't quite understand.

There is a list of those who really do want to know more about me than the general public desires to see. Flip down to "spin a web" and click the link there to get in on that list.
