Omg in my case , dude I wouldn’t waist any time memorizing calculations for biostatistics because I didn’t have a single calculation question and I waisted so many hours on it .
I would definitely spend time memorizing types of study and gross anatomy . I think I should have spent more time trying to memorize pharm graphs and calculations as well

Like, everything I didn’t think it would be high yield I had tons of questions about it. The system I was asked the most was renal . So I need to know that nephron like I know my phone number .

Good luck man .

Thank you for the response! Would you stick to UFAPS or would you add anything else?

That's a silly approach. Next time you will have GI or Vascular system heavy on exam - so what? There is no silver bullet or a secret blueprint that says what exactly you need to study. truth is you need to know everything - good enough to pass. It's not necessary to know everything at 100% level.

I am so sorry. I hate these tests . I am a horrible test taker. I have severe anxiety during the test . But we can do this. Let’s find tutors . I am getting some quotes .
