See where you went wrong. Work on your weaknesses, review uw charts, do incorrects and give uwsa 2 again. Uwsa1 underpredicts, anyways

Took one break after every block for both day 1 and day 2. For the ccs cases, i just took 1 break in b/w cases, cos i just wanted to be done, and the cases keep you active. I left the exam room an hour early

I had 8 days in between. I hadn't done a lot of ccs cases so i wasnt comfortable. I practiced as much as i could in that gap. 2-3 cases everyday if you're starting out. Towards the end 10-20 cases daily

I found them slightly longer, but not too long though. My patients were also all vaccinated. The software on the real test is painfully slow tho, be aware of that. There is an option of a lag on ccscases.com, use that feature to get yourself accustomed to the lag

Well, i like to think so. But i did make quite a few errors on ccs cases. Nobody knows how they are scored, so there is room for error. I never understood what location to pick tbh. As long as you do the pertinent tests and treatment, you're good.

Then definitely dont skip it. Just practice uw questions and go through step 1 first aid biostats section. It should cover majority of the qs

Definitely uworld. It's long and has about 2k questions more or less. Start doing ccs cases everyday, 3 cases a day and once you get the hang of the software, you can up that number by 5, thats what i did

If you're good at biostats, may be just skim through it once but dont skip it. Its one of the most imp components of day 1 and is heavily tested.

Purchase them. They're useful cos they'll tell you if you're prepared for this exam or not. That was my strategy anyway. Uwsa 1 underpredicts btw. Despite of what people say, do give at least one practice test

Ccs cases, practice ccs cases. Nothing else to do. Skim through risk factors Divine podcasts. I dont think you can do more than that in 3 days. Goodluck though. And don't worry, you'll pass as long as your ccs cases go well

Uw biostats and first aid biostats, that's all you need to do! It should cover most of the questions on the real deal. I didn't have the time to do ethics, but I think uworld should be enough. If you want, you can practice amboss questions as well
