ITE Study Plan

[Seagal]

Anyone using ACE questions to study? Taken 3 tests and am still missing ~40 questions! So hard to keep going. ITE is coming up soon, and haven't figured out a good study plan from now till test day in March. Plan to reread sections of M&M and do as many ACE questions as possible.

Any advice?

The last two years, I did all of Hall, and a few ACE exams in the months preceeding the ITE, in addition to my regular reading, and it worked out rather well. This year, I am adding the M5 questions mentioned elsewhere on the forum.

If you are only getting about 60% of the ACE questions right, then that does not bode well (unless your status is accurate, and you are a med student, in which case, well done!). Either you are having difficulty with tests, or there are some serious gaps in knowledge. Use the questions to figure out your weak areas, then target your reading appropriately.

I've been doing the m5 questions for the past 2 weeks and I think they've been very helpful, kinda feel like I'm starting to retain stuff. I think the ace questions are better written - or maybe I should say the explanations are more complete...but doing 100 ace questions and really studying the answers takes FOREVER. With 3 weeks to go I'd do either m5 or hall (and between those two so far I like m5 quite a bit more).
