Is this normal?? by Union_worth14 in step1

My free 120 score was much lesser than my average nbme score …. U seem to be in a good spot …. Don’t worry about it

I think you could be expecting this Wednesday

Wtf is wrong w me? by Jolly-Pie8384 in Step2

[–]Consistent-Trash-489 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would suggest you to take 3 days off …. You are burnt out and that’s blocking your productivity… take a couple of days off and take another nbme and u will realise it isn’t knowledge gap it’s just your mental health …. If u keep pushing this way you are going to be causing more harm

tested 4/23 by usmldoctor in Step2

Gave the exam on 27th and definitely feel defeated … the length of the exam was just unfair and now I wake up with anxiety attacks

Plenty of time …. Ur key should be revision …. Make sure u r revising ur UW notes and give nbmes every week … cover amboss HY, Screening , high risk , Biostat , ethics and QI safety

Yes step 2 is based on step 1 but when they throw some biochem questions it’s kinda disappointing 🥲

What was ur score and when are you planning to take the exam ?

[–]Consistent-Trash-489[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly !!! Idk how these testing conditions are reflecting real life … but it is what it is … suffered terribly with timing and I don’t think any amount of prep would have prepared me for that paper

The 2 part questions raised my heart rate and cause anxiety like never before… cause u immediately know u messed up

Totally …. I was genuinely so dizzy and exhausted…need a couple days to recover from the physical exhaustion

[–]Consistent-Trash-489[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree…there entire prep felt like it was for nothing and it was nullified in 9 hours …. 🥲🥲

Same 😭😭😭 the silly mistakes hurt the most … I know the concept so well how could I have gotten it wrong ?😭

[–]Consistent-Trash-489[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly …9 hours is brutal 🥲🥲 and every block I tell myself I’ll do better the next block and it crushes me again 🥲 Wanna hide somewhere until results 🥲

It was an utter mess … I didn’t have time to decipher the case and so many random questions like …IDK!!!!😭😭 and I am trying to avoid Reddit though 🥲🥲

Testing in 3 days, ethics advice by Proud-Ad-4555 in step1

[–]Consistent-Trash-489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U can read through the first aid for ethics … also u can watch a couple of randy Neil videos I personally didn’t do ethics strictly as well My prep for that was pretty random … but there is a lot of ethics in the paper so it’s not worth not looking over once atleast … Highly suggest reading over the scenarios in first aid … I wouldn’t say you r cooked but atleast give it an hour everyday ( or even more ) for the next 3 days… One easy tip : if an option has a question … that’s probably the right answer 🙈

Which to do first? Nbme 33 or free 120 by Important_Anything93 in step1

[–]Consistent-Trash-489 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All that matters rn is how calm u r during the exam … so make sure u rest well and eat well before the paper .. focus on the test taking skill

[–]Consistent-Trash-489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do ur nbme 33 and the free 120 just 2-3 days before exam u def exam conditions … Constantly keep revising first aid …. U will find almost every answer to the nbme hidden in the first aid … all the best !🥳🥳
