Sacrifice Class Rank for Step 1

Ok. So I've heard of people dropping school to study for step 1, but that in my mind that seems convoluted because you are learning what shows up on Step 1 in your courses. For me though, I have to take 2 classes at my school that are very non step 1 related but they are worth a ton of credits. I focus alot of my energy on Pathology, Pharmacology and Microbiology and do very well but end up just getting by in the rest of the classes that won't help me in Step 1. Is it that bad to not focus... Sacrifice Class Rank for Step 1
