Kaplan Qbank USMLE

Hello,

I've taken step 2 twice and have failed. I now have less than two months to study while doing my clinical rotations. I used Kaplan once and failed by two points. I used Crush the boards and questions the second time and did worse. I could certainly use some advice on what I can do now. I'm a slow reader and I defintely feel this is hurting me. Thanks everybody.

Sorry for that. You have lost a battle not the war. The sooner you can deal with it, the better you will be prepared to take it and pass it.
Good luck Doctor.

Hi nyboy,
take your time. Dont rush and take it just because people around you are taking or you have to do it for this year match etc... Take it when you are confident and comfortable with your understanding of concepts. All the books you have used are probably good. As you mentioned since you are a slow reader, take your time, no need to do it at the pace of others, you be at peace about your ability and do it in your own timing.
All the best.

Nyboy,

with one more chance, I'd make it a sure bet. Spend the money and take a special 1 month intensive individualized prep course. I'm not sure what they are, but I've heard of at least 3 such programs being out there in the country. do a google search. good luck, stay strong man.
