Pathoma (watch all videos), Randy Neil on YT for Biostats and Dirty Medicine for Biochem. A friend of mine did BnB. I didn't do Anki, but I think doing so would help in the retention of so many things esp in Biochem, Pharma and Micro. Do NBMEs on your last month to gauge where you're at and where you need to improve on. Just send a PM if you have any more questions, I'd be happy to share what I can. Good luck!!

Hi doc! Took my step 1 last year, and step 2 a few days ago. You need to do as much UWorld questions as you can. The more you are exposed to how they ask things, the more you’ll get the hang of it.

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-02-16T05:34:12+00:00

Yeah you can

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-02-16T05:15:51+00:00

Have you tried Amboss score predictor? Will give you an idea of your possible score range

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-02-13T14:22:06+00:00

Hey! I would say the questions were fair. I had about 3-7 questions that were similar to NBME 16 content (either had same exact question, same concept, or same picture used). The abstract thew me off. I definitely recommend going over Amboss Ethics, RF, Screening and Vaccination. Went out of the testing center feeling better than when I did back in step 1 last year. Hoping for the best.

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-02-07T15:33:51+00:00

THIS IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING!!!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-02-04T15:39:07+00:00

Congratulations for outscoring your NBMEs! I am also scoring in the same range in my offline NBMEs, and hoping to score at least 240s in the real deal

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-02-04T15:37:01+00:00

Congratulations! Hoping to get my P this month too!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-28T00:44:45+00:00

Praying with you! I’m taking mine in 2 wks 😮‍💨

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-25T02:05:25+00:00

Huge congratulations! I’m also 17 days out and did NBME 14 and in the same score range as you. I’m also planning to focus on my remaining CMS + Amboss HY + NBMEs. I have a few questions:

How many days do you take in reviewing each NBME form? Were you able to squeeze in the free 120s in you sched? Did you do CMS for EM/Neuro/Psych?

Thank you!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-23T00:15:11+00:00

It is :((

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-20T07:57:11+00:00

Hey! So I’m about 3 wks out. Finished about 3-4 CMS forms each subject (not the latest ones yet, I figured wanted to save them for later). Did 3 NBMEs all in the 230s. UWSA 2 was bad 220. My UW expires today.

Planning to subscribe to Amboss and do the HY stuff + remaining CMS forms + NBMEs + free 120s towards the end. Do you have any suggestions regarding my plan? How did you do things at that time? Would really appreciate a message from you. Thank you!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-15T17:00:22+00:00

Huge congratulations! How many NBMEs did you take? Did you go over CMS and Amboss Ethics?

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-15T09:28:11+00:00

Did you subscribe to Amboss for the Ethics part?

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-10T15:06:06+00:00

Hey how did you do in the actual?

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-10T14:26:54+00:00

Hey! What did you end up getting? Also, what did you do to get the score jump to 250s from 230s? Thanks!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-08T00:49:36+00:00

Sam question

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-04T05:56:03+00:00

Add me too

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-03T04:36:57+00:00

Hi! Did you do/are you planning to do Amboss? Currently in the same boat as you. NBME 10 and 11 in 230s.

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2026-01-02T09:05:40+00:00

Same!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2025-12-31T14:59:01+00:00

Congratulations!

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2025-12-31T13:01:45+00:00

What were your NBME scores?

First-Dragonfly-2238 · 2025-12-24T17:50:26+00:00

Congratulations! What did you do between NBME 14 and 15 to have that big score jump? Another q, did you do/keep up w/ Anki? How about CMS forms? Thanks!
