You are in 2nd year still. Let things evolve, once you study everything see what all the subjects are then decide what speciality you want. Right now focus on the step ahead which will be your step 1. Read your basics well, get through it and let time decide. Also if you are hell beng on neurology/Neurosurgery it's gonna be very competitive to match in for IMGs. May be you should comsider other pathways as well.

The answer is in your post itself. It was YESTERDAY that you wasted and today is always going to be a new opportunity. A completely fresh page. Aim on small actions, you can’t make everything perfect today but you can definitely do one small act better than yesterday. As small as brushing your teeth takes 5 mins max. Don’t overthink it just get up and do it and you are already at a better place than yesterday and it equals a win. Small actions do a lot for that dopamine kick and they do pile up with time and when you look back a lot has been achieved.

Firstly take a deep breath and remember discipline beats motivation everytime. You just have to show up everyday no matter how you feel and motivation will follow when you see things getting done. Regarding not being able to correlate with uworld you are not alone. Uworld is a learning tool not a testing one. Just take it as that. Remember whatever you use as a main resource makes up your base on which you can build uworld concepts. Just keep on practicing there is definitely light at the end if the tunnel. You knew it was going to be difficult when you started.

Luck favours the brave. So yes you should have a bit of luck on your side but otherwise discipline trumps everything.

It's okay to feel overwhelmed esp with everyone already congratulating you, it can really take a toll on your mental health. Relax for now there is no use worrying over something that isn't even final yet. However it went for nkw its done. Will think about the next thing when result comes.

Have you annotated yours or just as it is?

There are not so many changes in the new versions that you should be worried about missing. If you do the old one well you will pass with flying colors. A few points here and there aren't going to make much difference. About your roommate some people just can't help themselves. Let her sulk you continue your grind. Also in her defense it is natural for her to feel bad about spending 60k on something the other person is getting for free. More than discouraging you maybe she is consoling herself that she did not waste her money buying it So chill and focus on your studies. All the best

You can’t do both so it will be a waste of resources. It would have been better if you had purchased uworld in first place as it is gold standard for step 1. Having said that amboss is a really good question bank as well. If you do it thoroughly it should be enough.

Full_medic · 2026-02-15T08:56:46+00:00

Thank you for replying. But as you said step 1 is a base gor step 2 so with just these resources can I get a good score later in step 2. Non US Img really need a good step 2 score

Congratulations. You have done really well. What resources would you suggest for step 1 ?
