Hey Everyone!
In this thread I am interested in discussing test taking techniques in order to excel at the USMLE Step 1.
There were many tips/hints on how to approach questions. (One such tip was: anytime they gave you a patients status and asked you for their hormone levels, you stated which hormones CAUSED that scenario, not how the hormones would RESPOND.)
Anyways, I've been doing a lot of studying, and it seems that the majority of time, when i get questions wrong, it isn't because of a lack of knowledge, it's because of a lack approaching the question/understanding what the test asker thinks is important. any tips?
