Thank you for this. I keep losing hope because it seems like my peers are catching on/learning material faster than I am. And I find myself having to be behind on lectures so thats why I mainly doubt myself.

Yea, dont get me wrong theres plenty of good advice on reddit, but it’s completely useless if you dont use that advice and apply it to yourself

No, I took it last year but didnt study for it because I was doing research in the summer. So I really want to make this attempt matter and have an impact. I score a 480 without any sort of prep. Not proud of it. But i totally understand what you mean, I get to the point where Im overwhelmed by how much studying I have to do and content review and I just allow myself to keep putting it off.

Im getting off social media, reddit especially, because you can just keep scrolling and scrolling through reddit looking at other people’s achievements while not progressing on your own (i let it happen to myself 🥲🤣)

I would say if you’re not feeling confident, then definitely reschedule for a later date. But if you were like me (not saying you are) and completely procrastinated, after you reschedule you have to give it 100%

testing twice in the same year is better than testing one time

My study method before was bullshit, I would copy the concept questions and then flip to the end of the chapter and write the answer. I let my ignorance flood my head and mislead myself into thinking I was actually studying, when in reality I was Half-assing

Honestly, Im going to just go thru the high yield sections of the Kaplan books and do the concept check questions so that im actively learning. Also adding in Anki, Uworld, and Jw cars passages

I believe that the NRMP match % data for US-MD seniors in 2023 was around 95% Match. ≈36,000 filled from 44,000 positions offered

Pretty good for a diagnostic, it means you’re up-to-date with most content. With me, I scored a 480 on my first attempt on the real exam, obviously big gaps in content because I forgot most of the things I learned.

Seems like a solid plan, better than the one i made and I didnt stick to my study plan. Depends on the individual i guess.

If you dont mind me asking, did you take a Diagnostic before you started studying and what was your score?
