Question

Hello, In the Amidah prayer, if the congregation has started and the chazan is close to beginning the repetition, and a person is ready to start the Amidah — knowing that if he waits for the chazan, he will not be able to concentrate on the blessing of Magen Avraham properly — what should he do? Should he wait nonetheless and quickly recite the first two blessings with the chazan in order to say Kedusha with the congregation, or should he start the Amidah?

Answer

Hello,

There is no difference.

The main thing is that he can reach Kedusha with the chazan.
