Friends, I have been calm since the last few days of my preparation and now i am having flashbacks and nightmares even my husband dreamt that i scored very low. I am studying for CS and CK that helps me to forget about the anxiety for the time , but i have hard time while falling asleep.

Despite the fact that your anxiety is justified - it would be miles better to relax. (pun intended!) You'll do amazing mile99. Worrying will do your more harm than good. So just focus on your step 2 studies so you could match that step 1 99 you'll get!

You've taken the exam and, at least for now, it's behind you. You should be happy that it is over and try to get your mind off of it for the next several weeks until the results are ready. Until then, it doesn't make any sense to worry about it as worrying will not do anything to change it. Think about it, let's take both options: Person A takes the exam and worries obsessively about it for several weeks straight, then gets the results where the score = n. Person B takes the exam and is care-free for the next several weeks, then gets the results where the score = n. Person A and B both received the same exact score of n, regardless of how much they worried about it. As you can see, n is not effected by anything done after the exam. So my question is "which person would you rather be?" A good friend of mine taught me a long time ago and I've been much better off ever since. It basically means that you should not needlessly worry about the things that you have no control over because it won't change the outcome. If anything, concentrate your efforts on the things which you can make a difference with.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen.

Well said GOGETA ... I still remember your days (but dont worry, i wont tell!) I love this piece of advice: "you should not worry about the things that you have no control over because it won't change the outcome. If anything, concentrate your efforts on the things which you can make a difference with."

THANKS A LOT GOGETA!!! Your words mean a lot to me. Especially the A and B person comparison . It actually is so obvious that we have no control over things after exam .. but the comparison makes it so simple to practice Thanks a millions GOGETA!!

hi skamran your plan is fine, but do nbme 2 and either 3 or 4. nbme-1 overestimates your score so i believe its not worth spending on. your uworld scores are fair enough, and they will improve eventually. use it as a learning tool. don't worry , stick to your plan , you will do it in time All the best!!!
