Secondly do we really need to know everything in Robbins? I felt left out in my class becoz everyone preparing for neet pg (next) but it is nice to watch your videos it feels familiar.

    Hey bhaiya, i have just started my mbbs this year in 2023 in a new AIIMS. Ours is the 4th batch of our college ( The first batch started in 2020). My college is not in world directory of medical schools and is not ECFMG certified. It can't get ECFMG accreditation untill a batch passes out.... I'll be at the end of my 3rd year when the first batch graduates. & It takes time to get ECFMG accreditation. So when can i take my USMLE step 1? Can i take it only after my college gets accredited by ECFMG? if my college doesn't get ECFMG certified till the end of my 4th year, then...am i doomed?
