took step 1 yesterday and i feel like ****! i thought i was going to feel satisfied after the test but I was a mess instead!

my middle two blocks were tough as **** so by the time i got to my last two blocks i was losing my confidence. i wasnt even tired i was just fading a little. I'm worried i got tons of questions wrong that i should have gotten right or that i was fogetting stuff. UGH!

on my last NBME (#3) (1.5 weeks before my major review), I got a 224 and was pretty happy. I knew i had some more time to go over concepts i needed more strength in.

anyway, did anyone else feel completely awful after the test and end up doing well? i just dont know how to stop thinking about it and just be happy im done. I feel like i might have totally failed it.

HELP!
 
wouldn'y mind seeing if we all worried for nothing. It could be reassuring for people still waiting for his or her scores.
 
yea, I felt like **** after my test. I was happy to be done, to never have to think about it until it got closer to getting score...but I felt like **** bc I knew that altho I had focused as best as I could, there were things on the exam that I didn't know and couldn't really answer. I ended up doing just as well as my NBME's (after which I felt pretty good actually) this should be a solace to those waiting! good luck!
