"I'm Really Glad I Transferred
To Sjsm Because They Got Me Here.
Texas is a difficult state to match into. Being trained with the state, I get a lot of hands on experience at a very state level. I was prepared very well for Step 2. I saw a wide range of cases so that when it came to the CS exam, I had a good understanding of what to expect and how to treat those cases. They were always supportive when I applied for residency.”
