are you completely done with nms and UW by now?

  #4

no nms i have left it cause the pattern of questions is not very appealing.

usw will be done in a week from now hopefully.

the thing is if i have to buy kap. qbank better now then later, anywyas have to buy for atleast a month!!!!!

i dont mind buyin if its even 50% as useful as usw. but if its just a waste of time then i guess i will rather use the time for revising the notes.

i'd say if you had at least a month or more-it's worth doing it.but now you'll be just rushing trough the questions without retaining much.

my friend who has 2 weeks left is doing q-book again and revising the first aid.she also says that even though the pattern of nms questions is alittle wierd-it gives you some points.in fact-she told me that on both her nbme test she saw few questions from there.plus nms has totally different style-which is good-that way you'll be prepared for all sorts of styles and approaches.

i'm planning on doing nms later.i already have it-some of the questions are toooooo picky,but some of them are pretty good.look at the editors list-Goljan is one of them-just because of this it's already worth doing it.

that's my opinion.

well i would do kaplan q bank

cos it is much easier than usmleworld ..so builds up good confidence

good for time management skills

only problem is..that is a little easier than the real exam

but since u have a month..and u might want to do more qns...qbank and qbook are the way to go
