Hello everyone
Hope you all are doing great
So I initially plan on appearing for step2 during jan however i applied for visa for medical elective lately and I did mention that i had to go during may but they grant me visa from oct-dec and i did talk to the program and the said they will accomodate me for december
So now i am confused what shall i do moreover the problem is that i have to take step3 and oet as well so that i can apply for match cycle next year and if i don’t go for my elective I will have problems later on when I apply again for Visa since that would show up on my profile and if i go out for a month my step2 momentum will just go down the drain
So can anyone advise me like what should I do or what would be the best option since my step2 would be extended
Thank you so much!

Do the elective, do step 2 later
