cool....finished UW and my third reading...finally... cumulative score 75%.

planning to read all my notes next then probably take kaplan simulated, then....decide my plan according to the results. I have 2 or 3 weeks left, that's for sure. and so much on the list. one more concise reading, some q book left, some pretest, NBME.... I hope I can do this in the next 2 weeks, I'd really be happy to finish it sooner. God, please give me strength!!!

I see everybody is really on track now, not a lot of blues lately, and 3535, you really turned into a wisdom quote encyclopedia.smiling face. I also get inspired this way sometimes...you should see the walls around me...full of exam notes, post-its and inspiring words. gee...I'm turning into a compulsive note taking freak since this UW.... I'd better take this exam soon...save myself from the daunting madness...........confused

Hi AlinaT,

Greatscore in UW.Mine was 61+. My plan is to revise all kap+all Uwnotes before taking nbme. I should give some time to prep bec 61 means you need to revise everything. Sometimes I wish I would be in your / chickimi's shoes wink, getting such good UW scores, but then i would have got lazy and taken my exam just next day of completing UW.

All the best.

How is everybody? how's your studying going? 3535, chickimi, doing fine?

Last 19 days for me....I wanted to reschedule my exam on june 5, instead of 12, as I really was going nuts, but it's booked all the way til the 22nd at both test centers.... So I'll just have to bare with it one week longer.

I took Kaplan simulated monday....got 81%, I'm not sure what exactly this means.... I guess NBME will tell more. I think I'll take it in a week.

Right now just reading kaplan one more time....squeezing in some qs also just to keep me trained.

19 days and I'll get my life back.....

thank you 3535! So be it,as you say! I don't know why though, but I feel less ready and confident than I felt before step 1...is this one tougher, or am I just loosing it...?

How's your daughter doing? did you eventually find the balance between study and spending some time with her? just one more month and you'll have all the time in the world together! well, until residency that is... All the best to you too!

thats a great scorenodalina

did u do it online ? i have it on a cd and its old probably 2002-03.do u think that will be a good predictor?/

good luck everybody

  #171

hi acemle, I did it on a CD, 2003 I think. I don't know about the predictibility... I did it just to see how I stand, and how I manage to stay focused for so many hours. As far as a good predictor, I trust NBME, after my step 1 experience and after reading other people's experience with it.

Good luck with your exam, I know these last few days are crazy, you want to fit so many things in and at the same time you want them to pass quickly and relax. I wish you all the best, prepare mentally and physically for the great marathon. AND DO YOUR BEST!
