USMLE HELP. STEP 1 in THREE WEEKS!
Started by WaterBottle18
What's the feedback regarding your weak areas from NBMEs and UWSA ?
People will tell you to do this or do that but IMHO, you need to figure out your weaknesses first.

It's weird because I have not found a weakness in a specific subject matter, nor a question type. I review each practice exam in detail after each time.
That's a problem since we don't have anything to work on.It's weird because I have not found a weakness in a specific subject matter, nor a question type. I review each practice exam in detail after each time.

That's how I feel. I just do not understand what to do. I am so frustrated.
My USMLERx average was 86%

I'll be honest with you. As someone who has all 3 qbanks, I find Rx to be really easy and straight forward compared to the other two. How is Uworld going for you because that is where your real learning will happen? Rx doesn't require the 2nd and 3rd level thinking processes like Uworld.
Do some UW blocks and see what it tells you.That's how I feel. I just do not understand what to do. I am so frustrated.

I'm half done with UW, my average is 83%

Is this your first go at UW in any shape and form?

Yes, I started it for the first time ever three weeks agoIs this your first go at UW in any shape and form?![]()
In that case I suggest Test Taking Strategies by Dr. Steven Daugherty: http://usmlethought.com/Yes, I started it for the first time ever three weeks ago
So it seems like I make careless mistakes when I do this....
Great improvement.Update:
NBME 13 - 237
NBME 12- 237
NBME 16 - 249
UWSA 2 - 240
Any advice in the final week to help me bump it up?
Finished UW 1 pass - 75%
Final week should be for "Bugs & Drugs" memorization from FA.
Brush up Biostats, Epidemiology, formulas, graphs and charts.
Also, review NBMEs and your notes (if any).
Look up pictures, slides and scans.
I have a feeling that you will do fine.
Good Luck.
