i dont know if im the right one to advice on this to you but dear please do UW thoroughly with all concepts cuz i hv read a lot of exam posts where they say that UW is a must and not just do it for the heck of it but if you understand all concepts then bout 40-50% q's is on the same concept almost . But again if you have all the concepts clear then no need i guess. BUT please do FA a lot during last few days cuz again as read by most of the posts here that FA in last few days is must .

GOOD LUCK WITH STUDYING AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU !!

Hi angel23

I think that's good. I've heard of people getting much less on UW and doing well at this stage - a few days before exam. Hang in there & best of luck with the studying

cutekity and sos is right. angel, if you are getting 68 to 70% in first time uw, you are in very good position, not like me, did you take your nbme? how was it?

yes, dont forget FA in last days, it was life saving for me.

about pathology, anemia questions, those without slide i could answer, but there were few hematology slides ,
hypo and hyper cortisolism, LH, pronlonged prothombine time , where, diabetes , which hormone help release insulin, or IGF-1,

pericarditis, MI, burkitts lymphoma, AML, crest syndrome, prostacycline(inhibit platelet aggregation)

if you focus on even FA, you will get many questions right, also glomerulonephritis question in adult and child,

if you have any other question, let me know. you are on right path, dont worry, you will get a great score! first thing, believe that, and just keep reveiwing. GL.
