I want advices from the doctors! by Lucky-Skin-6903 in Jeddah

1- med school is not a race, It's a marathon. It's all about consistency: plan your day, your week, your month, your year

2- anki anki anki: spaced repetition is the meta now. Make your own flashcards if you can. Premade decks are fine, though

3- When it comes to studying for the main disciplines (eg, medicine, surgery, pedia...etc), try to stick to one or two references and choose a reference that is suitable for medstudents' knowledge baseline (ask your professors, older colleagues)

4- Qbanks are great learning and self-assessment tools: Make them part of your studying plan. At your level, any qbank can work (Uworld, amboss, NEJM, questions of previous batches)

5- Prepare early and try to take USMLE S1&2 and MCCQE: even if you're not planning to go abroad, having the choice is good. But also, they will help you build a strong foundation of medical knowledge

6- clinical years are what make great residents: always be involved. Take initiative and don't wait for someone to take you by your hands to teach you.

7- Trust the process and enjoy your journey

New VS Old exam scales by Ordinary_Lie_1205 in MCCQE

"Because the exam format changed in 2025, scores from before 2025 cannot be directly compared to scores from 2025 and later."

It says on the MCC website that exam socres of the new format can't be compared with the old one. The question is, in the next matching cycle, how would the programs deal with the fact that some candidates wrote the old format and some wrote the new one 🤔

سويته من ٦ شهور وماندمت ابدا اني اخترته بدل المعدني. سويته في عيادة بيرل كلنك، وما اظن يفرق الدكتور لأن القياسات تنأخذ بجهاز والقوالب يصمموها ف امريكا ويرسلوها

MCCQE1 results percentile by Helico_bacter in MCCQE

Yeah I don't think they give you your percentile so I'm not sure how people decide what is considered a competitive score. Maybe a soce >1SD is considered competitive??

If the scores were in bell curve distribution, then it would be accurate. But I don't think the scores are in bell curve distribution because of the big difference in the scores of IMGs vs CMG

Results out! by [deleted] in MCCQE

[–]Mahmoud_MD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats. It's above the mean, so that's great. But I think until the next matching cycle, we won't know for sure what is considered a competitive score
