@MedEdChat#mededchat T2 Plus, some students who want to apply to a more competitive field may not know how competitive they truly are until a few weeks before they apply.
@MedEdChat#mededchat T2: I think a lot of programs may feel like they've lost another screening metric and so the pressure of step 1 gets compounded onto step 2 for students.
@ArjaSateesh@MedEdChat#mededchat T1 I think a lot of PDs will use step 2 and class rank as their their initial metrics. If I had my druthers, we'd be able to measure how well someone does in a clinical workplace, but I don't think any school has built that mousetrap well!
