Hi IMG...

I read how u answered everyone's queries,that's awesome.

I have a question too...
smiling face
How many readings of kap notes u think are sufficient for an average memory person to get above 90.

Did u finish one or two readings of kap notes before starting UW along with notes?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Noni,

Thanx. I think three readings should be sufficient. I finished two readings before starting with UW. Hope it helps. GL.

the problem with medicine is that when u read something 5 minutes later u can not remember it at all

Very True !!!
Hence, the importance of revision...No matter from what sources you read if you don't revise the stuff its of no use !!!

  #33

true
I try to find key words and sometimes they are very funny but that helps but still very little points in necessary minutes u forget and u can not even remember those key words belonged to which one
when is your cs exam
they have emailed me that they have sent my orange paper but i haven't received it yet. i guess it takes at least 4 days till it reaches to texas but it has been about a week , i wish i do not loose the chance to take the exam as soon as possible if not i would forget evrything and i have to start again

I have 4 months for step2Ck with no distractions would that be sufficent?

  #35

yep
i had heard that some just studied for it for 1 month it needs u review the physical exam and asking guys that have taken it some key points in the way that u behave with patients are important for them ,if u read everything about it in internet and preparing sites i do not think it takes more than 1 or 2 months
i am still doing qs some days i just give up and can't work i finished my reviwes(key points , notes and first aid and crush) but still i am reading the answers to usmle world , do u think that i start reviewing the books again or just reading the answers to usmle world is enough to read( 2 weeks later i have exam )?
my score in usmle world is terrible sometimes 50 sometimes 60 but not more did u have the same scores?
i am sorry i asked many qs, my last one, do u think i review some step 1 points like goljan or embryology , anatomy?
with best wishes

Hi again I needed to consult with u today i had so much stress for the exam which is in 2 weeks later still my scores for usmle world are about 60 i feel terrible do u think that i delay the exam one month later or it doesn't help besides the fact that i might forget all of the reviews can i pass the exam
