Finally finished the step no 1 some days ago...
I would write a detailed experience after I get my score ...becoz right now I have no clear idea of how I did. 
Overall the exam looked like a general knowledge test.
Max q's from Patho and Physio ....
Next in line were from Behav.sci and Micro.
Behav had mostly physician patient interactions ,,the kind we studied for CS..
Plenty of Neuroanatomy ...pictures esp gross ...
Very few Statistics ...and genetics
Very very little Biochem  I spent sooooo much time studying biochem 
Lots of preventive medicine kind of Q's .....on current topics like Menopause, Diet ,Fiber ,Exercise
Good number of Pharmac.
I did both Kaplan online q bank and USMLE World Q bank
Most Qs resembled Kaplan q in length and concepts ...most spanned 5-6 sentences..
Some Q's were straight from USMLE WORLD  Ditto !! What a coincidence .
Will write more soon.

and....
For people with migraines ..this worked for me ..
I used tinted glasses ( sunglasses )
Took 400 mg Motrin before starting the test..
Drank lots of coffee and coke in breaks..
And the other other things I took were Khichdi (watery ..)and custard. so I could drink my food
and sent the kids to Disney world 1 week before the test ...

Congrates Faraym, it is normal to feel depressed know, I am sure that all of you know it, but I think it is better to remind you that there is huge cortisol surge before the exam, which totally disappears after the exam, and that's what make us feel depressed. Keep your faith and believe in god, deffinitely your efforts will be paid off.so:
Enjoy your freedom!!!!
I wish I was in the same position now and had taken the step 1!
Goodluck.

Good luck with your score. You prepared it very well, I bet you will get a great score! But waiting is really dreadful. Maybe you can spend more time with your kids so you can distract yourself from this. I guess studying right now won't be efficient, as least for me, while I was in that waiting period. Best.

now imagen that situation for 9 weeks HAAAAAAAA and then 4 more days to get the grade.
You know you PASS with n problem.
Imagen you 265 and says take 40 away and give it to the close to pass so they pass and then you get a 225.
I think I went overboard
bye bye
