Hi everybody!
Exam: November 9, 2007
Score: 185/75 (reported November 29, 2007)
Full two month prep, with full time jobs. Studied only Kaplan notes 1x, and Kaplan videos 1x.
USMLE CD: 35, 30, 34 two days before exam
USMLE WORLD. used it with my friends...i probably completed 50% and averaged 55%
I'm so depressed right now I wish I studied full time. I got no one to blame but myself. I wish I can retake the test to get a better score, but it's not possible.
So for all of you who are going to take the test, take it seriously. If you review full time, please do so. The test is doable. Read the review materials at leaast 2x, and finish usmleworld. The test is very much the same, but a little vague as compared to usmleworld.
Goodluck to all of you.

Hi everyone,
My step 2 CK score is 99/249
QBook 84%
UW 81%(timed unused)
Q bank did only four tests(85%)
usmle cd 42 41 41
real exam was more difficult than uw in terms of wierd post op, mood and anxiety disorders
Hemdullah, hard work does pay off, and uw to compliment KAPLAN is the best tool
N.B. the UW and usmle cd are very goof indicators.Although i didn't do it , they say NBME is even a better indicator.
GL for all.
