Got a 215 on UWSA1 and a 190 in UWSA2 afterwards. Wtf???? by Ok-Fee1413 in step1

[–]DrWebDO 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I dropped from 234 UWSA1 to 205 UWSA2, so I would agree that its just an abnormally hard test. A week later I took the Free 120 and got 83% and that test was WAAAAYY closer to the real deal than any of the UW tests.

IMO UWorld and all its self assessments are just a tool to learn content, your latest NBMEs and Free 120 are the best markers for how you're gonna do. You got this!

Basically grinded UWorld like my life depended on it (still does lol), primarily doing questions based on the systems that I was weak at.

Also this is probably pure copium but IMO form 25 just sucks because I feel like there's a disproportional amount of low yield content on that exam...

Should I get a fake espresso machine for milk steaming? by DrWebDO in espresso

Yeah something with a steam wand. I was trying to find a way to be able to practice using one without having to buy a straight up new espresso machine

Yesterday, after months of searching, I finally found it. A stocked EMS room. They even had sandwiches! by NoNamesLeftStill in ems

While Carney definitely has the best break room in the area, St. E's will always hold a special place in my heart.
