Lately, all I can imagine is that step I is going to bombard me with questions pertaining to my weak spots (embryo, anatomy and biochem- ok most of first year). I feel like I've paid a hefty chunk of money to participate in a sadistic lottery .

my score will be inversely correlated with how many anat/embryo i get.

This mad smiley sucks......it does not accurately portray my anger... :mad

Then that's some bad luck

Yea, I feel the same way. This test is luck of the draw. Best you can do is stack the deck in your favor by studying your weakest subjects in case they do come up. But then on test day you can't get mad, just play the hand you were dealt and hope that the USMLE gods will smile down on you and throw out all those questions you didn't know.
