Hi I am looking for anyone who is willing to spend all day doing uworld questions. Preferably someone available at least 4 hours to cover 1 block per day. The way I have been studying is reading questions discussing reasoning behind answer choices and then alternately taking turns reading them...

Just based on the fact that I score an average of 80% on a Random Timed UWorld Block, what can you estimate my step 1 score to be? I have taken practice tests in the past and I plan to take one in a few days, but I am just looking for an outside opinion and current estimate of my score at the...

I, like many medical students, used the internet as a resource when trying to determine what study materials to use when studying for the Step exams. In doing so, I came across the Kaplan vs Uworld Qbank debate multiple times. I only used Uworld for Step 1 (ended up with a 259), and I also used...

Hi guys, I have started doing Uworld questions recently. I completed 50% the USMLE World Qbank I do the questions timed/mixed no tutor mode. I been using UWORLD, FA-2017, Pathoma, DIT and Sketchy Micro. I have a NBME exam scheduled in 2 weeks and I also have 2-UWSA exams left. My USMLE Step 1...

Hello everyone, I've recently completed Uworld. I've finished three passes and I've understood the basic concepts. My question is now that I've completed Uworld, what more can I do to increase my knowledge? I've completed First Aid, Pathoma, and some anki decks. I'm taking an NBME in a day or...

Hello everyone, I've recently completed Uworld. I've finished three passes and I've understood the basic concepts. My question is now that I've completed Uworld, what more can I do to increase my knowledge? I've completed First Aid, Pathoma, and some anki decks. I'm taking an NBME in a day or...

I'm selling the rest of my UWorld Step 1 Qbank subscription. I have a full reset (so questions will be unused with fresh statistics) and 77 days left, expiring July 15th. My price is $150, which is about 50% off the original price (a 60-day subscription is $279 through the official UWorld site).

Hi guys, So I started prepping for my step 1 almost 6 months ago. I was done with kaplan and uworld. I wasn't doing great on uw. I was primarily using it as a learning tool. I ended my first pass with a 57%. And I scored like a 220 on offline nbme 15. Anyway, I became disheartened and I decided...

Hi Guys! I've recently moved to the area and am looking for colleagues who are also studying for the MCAT right now. Though I feel like I work faster during self-study, but having a partner or group to review practice tests and difficult questions can create way more efficient review process...

Hi all, i encountered a q on Uworld that said Chronic hepatic vein obstruction is a rare cause of portal hypertension and cirrhosis. Is this saying budd chiari rarely leads to portal hypertension and cirrhosis? If so, why? Im a bit confused about the differences in symptoms between cirrhosis...

Would you recommend starting random UWorld question blocks even if I haven't seen the content in months? I'm starting my dedicated now and it seems like a waste to do questions for say pulmonology when I likely remember maybe 15% of that material from my class and the FA I read at that time...

Hi all. I've been studying for Step 1 for the past 7 weeks. Here is the progression I've had thus far: CBSE: 168 NBME 17: 178 USWA 1: 205 NBME 15: 198 NBME 13: 201 My question is: what should I do to improve in the next 7 weeks? My goal score is a 230 but I'll be happy with a 210-220. Is that...

Hello, im an img who took his step1 on february 2018 and I make this thread because before get my score I always look for reasurence on this kind of Posts. NBME 16: 219 (6/2017) NBME 15: 230 (9/2017) NBME 13: 234 (10/2017) NMBE 17:236 (12/2017) NBME18: 242 (1 month off) NBME 19:223 (3 weeks...

.

I am taking Step 1 at the end of this month. I am wondering how many NBME practice tests people recommend? People have given me different advice: take one every week to simulate an actual test or take a handful (~3) and spend that extra time honing in on the material. Also which NBMEs do you...

Hi Guys, I am a 4th year Med student who is willing to tutor Step 2 CK concepts. I have tutored in many subjects throughout my college/med school career and have also done teaching research at NYU Steinhardt School of Education. I really enjoy teaching, it’s one of my passions and now that...

Hello, So in about a week I will finish my FA pass for the second time and pathoma videos for the 1st time. While I was watching the pathoma videos I was taking notes in FA so I will not have to watch them again. I started doing UWorld since I started studying for step1, doing some blocks...

Hey all, I just wanted to thank everyone here for all the advice and resources and shared experiences - they've helped me a ton, and I hope this post (although very long - sorry about that) can help someone else. I passed recently with a score in the 220s. Exam Structure: Based on what I...

Does anyone have experiences with a longitudinal clerkship/rotation schedule? How did you handle studying for shelves/Step 1/step 2? All of my friends at other med schools have blocks (traditional) that they study for, but at my school 8 of us are doing everything all the time. Our rotations...

Good morning friends, So I started studying for step 1. I finished the introductory(microbiology, biochem, pharmacology etc.) chapters of FA. Then I went through the cardiology section in 2 days. After that I started doing the Uworld questions. I did about 200 questions with all subjects...

Not sure if there's a demand for this but I have a UWorld self-assessment I never used from my step 1 studying. It hasn't expired yet so if someone wants it, I'd be happy to pass it along somehow.

I just recently took both USMLE Step 1 and COMLEX Level 1 (Scores at bottom of post). I remember having a difficult time finding relevant SDN threads for people taking both exams, in regards to test prep/schedule/practice test scores and the correlating final scores on exam. I'm just posting...

Hey guys, I have a subscription for CK available from June 20th-August 15th (almost 2 months) for $70 or OBO

I'm partway through my dedicated time for Level 2 (not taking Step 2) and trying to figure out whether to use COMBANK or COMQUEST. I've already finished UWorld once during the year and am about 1/3 of the way through it a second time. I'm planning on finishing that then moving on to one of the...

Hey guys recently took my step 1 and thought I would share my experience while it is still fresh in my head. STATS CBSE January 2017:188 CBSE April 2017: 243 NBME 17:238(curve is ridiculous) NBME 18: 256 NBME 19:250(curve yet again ridiculous but I got better at step I guess) Ill try my best...

Taking Step 2 CK in about a week, already bought Sim form 1 and will take tomorrow, for anyone who has taken both Sim forms, do they cover different material (ie only by buying both will you get a full review of all the Step 2 CK material), or do they just test the same material in different...

Has anyone else experienced this? For some reason UWORLD hardly ever shows me its pictures, it shows me a picture icon and I have to click on it to see it. Sometimes the pic doesnt even open. Another thing is after a while it wont let me scroll down and the screen is essentially frozen...

So I finished UWORLD first pass a little bit ago and was hoping to re-do all of my incorrect by May1st giving me a month and some change for my second pass. However we have finals coming up soon and I dont think I'll be able to finish all of my incorrect and still have time for a second pass...

So I don't see an up to date poll for this - and times change. So the best backbone of step 2 CK studying is: UWorld + Which book? (there may be other types of resources, but I'm interested in the best Text). Let's say for a 4 week study period (haven't started a prep book yet).

Hey guys, sorry if this was already posted but I couldn't it anywhere. SO I thought I would start the thread. I was wondering for people who did UWORLD BY SUBJECT what were your Qbank percents and actual step scores. I see all these correlations with UWORLD and STEP scores but I feel like...

Hello guys I just finished taking UW SIM FORM 2 roughly 30 minutes ago. I called my buddy after and I told him how this exam only had ONE biostats question and very very very few behavioral (roughly 2 or max 3). He told me thats not possible because he remembers there was roughly 15 total...

ORIENTATION NEEDED. I'm about 10 40Qs-blocks into UWorld's second pass ranging 80-100%; First pass, random, timed was 73%. My second pass scores are most likely 'cause I do remember the questions and answers, although I study the explanations again, even when I know the "why" of the correct...

how does the reset option work? do we get the same questions again, or new questions?

Our school gave us a code for UWorld Step 1 but I've already taken it, so I'm selling my code! The code offers $259 off (so the entire price of a 90-day UWorld Step 1 + two self-assessment forms) and I'm selling it at $200 or best offer. E-mail me at [email protected] if interested!

Has anyone tried to use Self-Assessment 1 before starting board prep, to get a baseline score? If so, how did you ultimately find your score? 20 points below your final? 30? 60?

Hey all, Just wanted some opinions from others who have been through the Step 1. I'm actively working with first aid in my coursework, but I wanted to know the best way to Utilize UWorld. I'm thinking about doing the questions as my main study source so theoretically by the end of prep i'll...

What is the most time and effort efficient method for step 1 prep. This is taking into consideration no prior annotations in First Aid. Advice pls.

Hi everyone! Hoping this isn't too redundant because I've seen a lot of people asking about UWorld scores and how to not be disappointed with them. I'm going to begin my fifth year at Medical School (it's 5 years here) in a week, and my three month Step period has begun i.e. Oct-Nov-Dec...

Hey everyone, I am in need of some advice on which Qbank to purchase. Currently I am thinking about just taking the COMLEX and I am struggling to decide if I should get Uworld or Combank. I've heard from some other people to start with Uworld early, then use Combank closer to the exam. This was...
