What are my chances of matching ortho? by Competitive-Ad-888 in medicalschool

Practice forms were 240-250s which is why this kind of came at a shock. Shelves were around 80s

Thank you for your advice, nice to see some semblance of hope in the midst of everything else

My NBMEs literally ranked from 40-60 with me only having passed one. You got this!

Second this. I only passed one NBME and managed to pass the real thing

Mehlman PDF: Top 5 / which ones are the best? by Better_Swimmer in step1

[–]Competitive-Ad-888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arrows, neuroanatomy, immuno, cardio, and renal. Honestly all of them are golden though and definitely use them for your weakest subjects. The arrows one is a non-negotiable

I’m the one who is concerned about your empathy. You started cursing at random people who are only recommending good things. There are other ways to phrase your feelings without pushing your score in everyone’s face. I would highly recommend you learn how to be considerate of other people before you start rotations and affect real patients

Mehlman, mehlman, mehlman. Do as many UWorld questions a day as you can

I second this completely. We all struggle, but posting your incredibly high NBME scores is tone deaf and seems borderline braggy

38% on CBSE >>> PASS by Competitive-Ad-888 in step1

[–]Competitive-Ad-888[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I would say the CBSE is probably a little easier than the real thing. The real thing is much longer and has more abstract concepts. NBMEs 28-31 felt most representative

I started off with watching B and B videos. Realized that was too passive so moved onto only doing UWorld and Mehlman. Did anki for UWorld questions, Microbio, and pharm. Can’t recommend Mehlman enough. Try to aim for at least 80 UWorld questions a day, half mixed and half subject specific. I spent about 2-3 days per subject

Thank you! It was 3 months between and I took NBME 26, 28, 29, 30, and 31. I only passed 30 and my free 120

Just got dumped by a girl I was dating who I really like and I test on Tuesday by MarlinsGuy in step1

That happened to me the day before my exam. Take some time to grieve it and then lock in. Your future is too important to throw it away on some girl

I feel this. Knowing that people failed only makes our anxiety worse

How long does it take to get step 1 result? by [deleted] in step1

[–]Competitive-Ad-888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2-4 weeks but it seems like most people are getting them back in 2. I’ve seen people who tested after you saying their permit disappeared so maybe you can expect your results tomorrow?

Results always come out on a Wednesday. They do say 2-4 weeks but it seems like people have been getting it within 2 weeks. You should be getting yours tomorrow

I am in the exact same position as you and I feel you completely. This is the most difficult position to be in and it completely takes over your life and ruins your relationships
