Hey, I am sorry! I know that nothing anyone says can make you feel better, and that you probably feel horrible right now. I went thru the exact thing. 1st time, I had a gallstone attack and threw up during the exam, 2nd time I totally psyched myself out and freaked. Anyway, what I did to FINALLY pass was simple: I studied the USMLE step2 (1st Aid), Crush the Boards, and Prescription for the boards (variety is the spice of life). Then, I took as many exams and answered as many questions as I possibly could (over 2000). Basically, I ate, drank, and slept the boards for three whole weeks, and took my darn time on the exam day (7 hours compared to my initial 5). Honestly, I have to say that doing the questions was what helped me the most. By the actual exam, I was so used to the Q&A format that it just came naturally. Incidentally, I scored 120 pts over my original exam. Just take a deep breath, make up your mind hat you will do what you have to do to pass this time, and get a comfortable chair! Good luck!
