I am losing confidence and the nerves for the exam preparation.I am having panic attacks..I am not able to revise kaplan and I have been doing hy anatomy only gross anatomy for now 3 days.So I have decided to do only first aid in the remaining 27 days...I am leaving everything to God now.I have worked hard for now 3 years for this step 1..and I have done my best.So if after all this,I am destined to lose again,I cant help it.

DAY 27.

todays targets.::::

patho chapters 20,21,5

q bank qs 100

micro 3 pages from FA.

and I am doing only first aid now.Its a gamble but I dnt have time to do all kaplan series before 18th when I am taking form 3.

good plan malinda,

since you don't have enough time to review everything, so first aid is first choice.

I'm doing qbank and realized that FA covers about 70% content in qbank. Other members in this forum also recommend to read FA in the last days before the real exam. Try to read more 5-6 times and only some high yield in Kaplan notes.

good luck
