Hello, i am currently preparing for step 1 n would ideally like to take it before November and before 2017 at the latest. I feel comfortable with the immuno,micro,biochem etc n currently trying to hammer home the organ systems. My biggest weakness is motivation. Ive been studying for a year now but im not consistent due to lack of motivation/USMLE-induced depression. Maybe its just anxiety and my NE is all over the place..idk..but instead of benzos/barbs i am seeking any innocent, kind person/soul/ or altruistic person who is willing to text/call/skype with me 1-3 times a week to boost my motivation and help keep me in check. I feel everytime i get close, i lose hope have a hypomanic episode n give up. First NBME 11 was 166. 5 months later NBME 15 is only 205. I wanna be at 230+. Ive done UWORLD maybe 4 times, first aid maybe 3-4 times, kaplan qbank 3times, usmle rx once, pathoma twice, and Golijin once over that year period.I feel lazy with no motivation or selfconfidence that i can do it. I feel really low, slow n ******ed.
If your interested for whatever bipolar reason,I have plenty of mnemonics and easy ways to remember things if your having trouble with specific subjects/material. Plz dont be intellectually disabled and reply in an lesch nyhan way.
