I am so tired now...after nearly 1 week plus of studying USMLE world only, I am totally exhausted and I have only finished around 50% of it....my score is around 60-70%...occasionally 40% or 80%....now my question is I feel that I can't break through 70% most of the time....is this normal....I feel that there are always questions that I never thought of and have no idea how to answer those question.
 
Most people will think you are a punk for posting this. 70% on usmleworld (if you are not doing repeats) is probably better than anyone on this forum. You are doing better than people who got 250+ on the real deal.
 
try rubbing a lucky coin, doing a ritual dance, or uttering incantations under your breath while working questions. i think those interventions are as likely to raise your score on usmle world as anything else 🙂

Yep! You're a punk! I'm hitting around 55%! I am the dumb dunce medical student! :hardy:

Carlos Mencia goes "de de deeee" when he sees my USMLEWorld scores!


Seriously? I don't know, memorize a board review book I guess. Some of the questions are downright picky. It's definitely a good review for USMLE though.

That's why a review book isn't enough. As I said to the OP. .. memorize HARRISONs! that will definitely improve one's score.

You're probably right on that. Gah, my Harrison's is huge! It looks like a weapon that would be used in one of those WWE Wrestling title fights (in the place of one of those folding chairs! hehe)
