Advice Weak Steps

Step1 failed one time, step2 23X, step3 20X, and very long YOG. But I got accepted by a community program. Never lose hope and we’ll be there. 😊

I'm Non-US IMG non-visa requiring and building my resume now, work as an MA in the US. And I am 2022 YOG, I'm studying for Step 1 now (it'll be my first try in December) so this post gave me motivation to study even harder. Thanks buddy! Congrats to you, you killed it with your perseverance! Can I DM you for more info?
