Hey guys, I really need your help. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I recently found out that I got a 174 (before that a 172). I have been using Kaplan books (2001 edition), Dr. Goljan's notes and CD, did Q-bank, did some questions of the NMS book, read First Aid. My cummulative Q-bank score was a 63%. I knew it wasn't a good score but I didn't have any more time to extend my test, so I took it. I also did the NBME 1 and got a 400 a month before the test. Studied some more took the NBME 2 and got another 400. The NBME score did not make a good correlation with the actual score . I actually did not feel that bad during the test. I have no clue what to do now. Should I switch books? Is it the way I study? Should I look for another question source that is not Q-bank? I tend to stick with the same books and review them over and over, but obviously this hasn' t worked. Does anyone need a study partner? Please help me. I need to beat this test. After doing a lot of crying, now I'm angry. I'm ready to focus that anger into studying. Please, can anyone help me? Any input will be appreciated.
