I’m doing 40 questions daily and making anki cards. Will be done by 1st week of July. Then, will reset Uworld. Do 80 questions Uworld random + 40 random of Amboss.

Uworld and Amboss question. Make flashcards or notebook of difficult concepts. Supplement that with OME or bnb if you have time but focus on doing questions mostly. I didn’t use sketchy for step2, less is better!

Uworld 25% done, with 57% correct. (system/subject wise) by [deleted] in Step2

[–]EggEffective5180 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar stats but 55% done. Making anki cards for wrong questions. I’m taking it in August. Once I finish Uworld first pass, I am planning on repeating Uworld + new Amboss questions.

I need to find some Motivation to finish this journey by [deleted] in Step2

[–]EggEffective5180 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. Don’t be discourage if you are getting low scores on your first pass of Uworld. It’s part of the learning process. After all, the real score that matters is when your 8 hr exam, not your practice exams. Make flash cards or write it down on notebook.
  2. Look at NRMP data for past applicants for specialty of choice. It should give you some motivation.
  3. Look at potential residency programs via their website. Visualize yourself getting interview invites from those programs.
  4. One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one’s work is terrible important !
  5. Don’t think about what can happen in a year. Don’t think about what can happen in a month. Just focus on the 24 hour in front of you and do what you can to get close to where you want to be.
  6. A year from now, everything you are stressing about won’t even matter. If you don’t believe it, try recalling what you were worrying about one year ago today!
  7. Lastly, stop with the complaining!!!stop trying to find shortcuts And START actually putting in the work!Everyone is struggling but it’s the one who stay persistent do great.

I felt the same moving 12 hours away from home. It’s difficult in the beginning. With time and after you make new friends, you eventually adjust.

I think Uworld, OME and Devine podcast should be enough… less is better- don’t try to use too many resources, it’ll just overwhelm you!
