thanks a lot for all without whom i would not have done this.This is a great forum.

I studied from Kaplan,UW&First aid

exam qs were much tougher than UW,60..70%int med.Concentrate on int med.I used refer CMDT,KUMAR&CLARK if i feel it is not explained properly in kaplan,

Also so many qs appeared about geriatrics,musculoskeletal,SOB.be thorough with all the aspects of a particular disease,few qs fronm step1,quite doable.

fot psychiatry i used HY as kaplan is not sufficient,youcan choose somethingelse like BP.

MY scores

UW 67%

USMLECD 40 42 39

Kaplan q book 70%

kaplan simulated cd 85%

Did not do NBME!

GOOD LUCK TO ALL smiling face
