So far I have gathered that the only way to do two passes of UW is to mark all the questions on your first pass and do only the marked questions on the second pass.

Now, how does anyone do the third pass without resetting the qbank (in other words, without losing the highlighting)?

--------

A separate question: Is it possible to copy text within UW? From the answer explanations to the built-in notes feature? In a mac if that matters.

TIA.

Do UWorld once. Then do the incorrects from that first pass.

Then reset the QBank.

Then do UWorld a second time. Then do the incorrects from that second pass.

Anything you get wrong from the incorrects on the second pass or had marked, cover again within the week of the exam.

So two full passes of UWorld + two passes of incorrects + a final pass of marked/incorrect from the 2nd pass incorrects.

It's important to reset everything. Some questions you get correct on the first pass you'll actually get wrong on the second pass.

Yes, but resetting resets the highlights as well!

I'm trying to figure out a way to leave the highlighting intact so I don't have to spend time annotating everything on to First Aid and just use the highlighting feature as the review tool.
 
What happens if you do:

1). One pass, marking all questions.
2). Second pass of all marked questions, this time again marking all questions.

Does marking the questions again on the second pass confuse uworld and make it include the questions done on the same (second) pass once again?

Thanks.

You should probably just learn to annotate concisely and not rely on the highlighting. When you review throughout the year / approach the real deal, you'll be flipping through your FA, sometimes at random, and you'll be glad the annotations are there.

Agreed.
