Hi Friends,

I recieved my step 2 CK score today.It's 227/92.Thanks all of u .

All the very best to all of you.

P.S: My NBME 3 score was 420 ,15 days before the exam.NBME 1 & 2 were 530 &520.This was around 1 month before the exam day.Looks like NBME 3 is not a very good predictor(at least in my case)

Thanks Cyra & catmdo4.

Catmd04,My prep materials were only Kaplan lecture notes, Q-bank & UW.I was using UW in tutor mode,system wise. hardly kept track of scores.I was putting in 3-4 hrs for the first 3 months except for weekends when I had time to study for around 8-10 hrs.

In the last month when I got my study+annual leave, I managed to study for 10-12 hrs.I studied Kaplan lecture notes 3 times and solved UW twice, the second time mainly focussing on the wrong one's Sharvil, wamba and 3535's posts proved to be really helpfull.Thank you very much.

For those of u with limited time the following may be helpfull.My statergy to solve Kaplan Q-Bank was this.

In the first 3 days of my 1 month subscription I solved Kaplan q-bank(random, Timed mode) at the rate of 400qs'/day.My cumulative scores was 66%. To be honest, it was a great feeling to have cleared 1200q's out of my way in 3 days. So by the end of the third day I had with me around 350 wrong q's. I was working on these wrong q's for the next 15 days or so.10 days prior to the exam I solved another 400qs.I scored an average of 74% on these 8 blocks.

Post exam, Having read the experiences of others on this forum I was not keen to think too much abt my performance.The general feeling was that I had taken a guess on many, many q's.
