I opened my score report on Wednesday to see that I had failed by 2 points. I guess I'll be preparing to take this monster of an exam again and I'm desperate for some advice because I am clueless as to where to start and scared to mess it up again!
I've read some great advice on this forum about the different ways to prepare initially for the exam, and advice for a few posters who have found themselves in my same situation recently...anyway, if anyone has some advice for my individual situation I'd greatly appreciate it.
I studied on my own (I used most of Kaplan online, FA, Goljan, UWorld qbank). I felt "prepared" going into the exam, almost too relaxed and confident even? I had taken a practice UWorld assessment my last week, I usually do better on real exams so with a 208 was sure that on the real thing I'd score nothing less and praying for 20+ points.
My actual exam score report pretty much shows everything is borderline, so I don't even know how I'd go about studying everything again. I'm scared to death of studying the "wrong way" again. I have no idea how to begin assessing what to change because I felt "fine" the whole time.
My school will give me about 2 months to prep: please advise me!! Do I do questions, questions, questions?? A live course?? Back to my old notes and books??
Thank you!!
