Like, I get the gist of it (work, study, test, repeat), but have 0.0 details from our school. For example, how much do you guys study per week? Do you use school recommended resources or outside resources? Do you do practice NBMEs before every shelf (even short selective rotations) or just the...

For those who did well on OB, what secondary question bank would you recommend? I hadn't heard great things about UWISE for the shelf exam, and I hadn't heard much about AMBOSS for OBGYN. Case Files is another option as well. I will definitely do incorrects and run through UWORLD again if I have...

Hey everyone, Last week, my dad’s bowel perforated and he was septic the night before my fam med shelf. I was kind of out of it and took it anyways which in retrospect was very dumb. It felt like a total blur taking it. I ended up failing by a few points. Clinically, I did really well and our...

I was wondering if anyone can offer some advice for Physiology NBME shelf. I heard from multiple people that the exam is a brutal guessing game. What is the best source of questions to practice from that is similar to the shelf exam? Should I focus more on diagrams? Would you guys recommend...

Do most people who score >90th percentile do it consistently across shelf exams? Curious because somebody recommended I put this as one of my 3 "notable characteristics" in ERAS...lol. I would prefer to save that space for something unique, but it got me wondering if it's actually worth...

I heard that in LECOM 3rd year - one has to take the rotation, and then shelf exam and then also an internal exam worth 20% of marks. Has anyone heard that? Is that a good practice? Has the rotation issue been all sorted out at LECOM - Erie? Seems form other posts that there used to be an issue...

Anyone have tips/suggestions on how to do well on Ob/Gyn rotation? Any essential resources for the shelf? Anyone have useful tips for how to be helpful on L&D/in clinic/GynOnc service? I also don't know what roles midwives have on the team... can anyone explain to me what the difference between...

So AMBOSS gave a presentation to our med school today, and from what I gathered, it's designed to be a comprehensive, single resource for MS3, including a Qbank and Library. They are based in Germany and used as the primary resource for students and physicians across Europe. There's a lot of...

I just took the pediatric Shelf, I felt like I was doing okay, but ran out of time. I made it to question 95. I won't get my score till Monday and am anxious. There were 110 questions total, is there any likelihood of passing (meaning >5th percentile)? Also, I was not able to even put random...
