Good work done and hope you will get a great score. I want to clear one thing about OBGYN was it really dificult or Kaplan is enough for that (after your exam experince)? I did it from Kaplan and thing UW q I did good do you think UW (I am just talking about OBGYN) is good reflection of level of difficulty? Best of luck with your future
