I just took my first practice test, NBME Number 13. I did pretty good and got a 250 estimated score! I have to say that it really surprised me though. The NBME was WAY more "clinical" than what I expected. For example, the biochemistry questions would have a clinical presentation and then ask for a diagnosis or maybe ask what enzyme was deficient. That was about as deep as it went. No questions regarding charge or pKas on amino acid residues or tricky titration curves. Am I missing something here?
Anyway, I am going to just keep pushing forward through Robins, Harrison's, FA (memorizing about 12.5 pages per night,) and Exammaster. I just bought Usmleworld too. Its WAY different than Exammaster, but it has great explanations. I kind of wish some one had told me about it earlier. My exam is in 2 weeks. Is the USMLE like the NBME Number 13? Thanks, guys.
