hi guys,

i plan to take the exam in 8 weeks but i can only study 2-3 hours a day because i work as fulltime ortho-resident.

i finished the first 1000 questions on uw and keep staying at 42-52%. just cant hit the 50% 3 times in a row.

i dont think that my problem is understanding. most questions i fail is like.... this virus has double + rna.... or.... this bug grows on bactricain agar....
so i think its just FACTS i am lacking.

can anyone recommend me, how to study the next 8 weeks (2-3 hours a day)?
better only do questions and FA or try to re-read kaplan.
i only listend to 2days of goljan, but although its funny, i believe, that it doesnt help me a lot.

Try to do more questions.

8 weeks is plenty of time to raise your UW score. I know, it seems like it won't happen...but it will. Keep at it, you'll see smiling face

52 is not bad, after 8 weeks u should have 75-80&
After 200q Qs u can look at your weak subject, improve it, your score will up
