ReTake step 3

[Bazinga1983]

So as many of you know that i am re taking my step 3. So today was my day 1 and day 2 is scheduled for friday.

Any recommendations/suggestions how to maximize this little bit of time? I was thinking about primarily working on CCS and then either review my UW notes and or do incorrect/marked questions but nothing else. Don't have that kind of time. Thoughts?


2) So it took me few minutes to really get going when i started block 1 and had little bit of timing issues on the very first block. Any suggestions regarding avoiding this? Same issue occurred after taking a break and starting block 3...


Thank you in advance!

What did you use to study? Anything you did differently this time?

Well,
I got my score back on Sep 14, 2016. A day before ERAS went out.

First attempt:

UW (58% correct)
Then did incorrects
Then marked/incorrects


Reset the qbank and finished 2nd pass with 85% correct
Then did incorrects
Then corrects/marked
Incorrects/marked etc
Made about 1000 flash cards primarily from u world.
Biggest thing was CCS because i didn't do archer




Second attempt:
Kaplan qbank
UW again
Incorrects/marked
Reviewed MTB more consistenly
Biggest change: **********. And as soon as i started archer, i realized that i was wrong. I missed alot of tiny things here n there such as ordering Chem 14 instead of BMP (20 minute vs 45 min) and especially for those 8 min ER cases. So tiny stuff like that.


That's the gist. All questions were done in random/timed more. But yea.

Well, here's a new flash.


I think I I failed again. ****!

Why would a Chem 14 come back quicker than ordering BMP?
