I am an anesthesiologist in my coumtry and took the usmle step 2 dec 29, i suggest to start with step 2, as a emergency specialist try to skip the items that are obviusly and make you waste time (ABG, Electrolites,IM,embolia,etc) and focus in your weakness, psych,´gynec and obstet, ethics I recommend you Kpalan lecture notes and first aid, and do a lot and tons of mcq
I am waiting my results
the rsidency depends on your score try to get high to have better options
good luck
