Hey all,
I recently began studying boards; started by taking a practice exam just to see where I was, and the projected score was low (to be expected honestly). Eh, not terrible, but obviously meant that I needed to put in some work.
I bought Boards and Beyond and USMLE-RX. I'm using Cramfighter to make a daily schedule of videos to watch, taking the associated quizzes, and reading the relevant FA pages, then following that up with trying to do a block of 40 untimed-tutor mode questions in USMLE-RX on that topic.
I have found that I either don't make it through what I have scheduled for that day, or I do but don't feel like I've learned anything. I get to the untimed blocks of 40, and definitely get questions right that I would have missed otherwise, but likewise miss questions that I covered on that days material.
I feel like Im doing a lot of paddling and going nowhere. Is this normal? Any advice?
