Finally I got a seat in August 30 at school test center. 10 weeks to go.

I will try to have 8~10 hours per day to study during the first 8 weeks, full-time last two weeks (12~16 hours).

my weakness are pharmacology, neurology, heart, skeleton and psychiatry


1wk: UsmleRx pharmacology part and leftover with FA (first FA reading)

2~7wks: UW Monday~Friday: 1 block/day Sat: 3 block Sun: NBME
FA x 2hours Goljan audio notes X 1hour (2nd FA reading)

8wk: UW 2nd time, wrong questions (3rd FA reading)

9wk: UW 2nd time, wrong questions, UW x 3block/day
RR margin + tables(3rd FA reading)

10wk: FA + RR, 3 block/day

Any word is appreciated

Thanks

It sounds like a good plan, so long as you get know UW well & keep hammering in FA. For the NBMEs, I would start with the newer ones first. The earlier ones have some oddball questions in them. 10 weeks is a long time. I've only been studying for 5 weeks and I want to die. Unless you are a machine, you will need a break at some point.
