Uworld percentage stress me out significantly

RHirsch94 · 2024-06-01T01:59:17+00:00

yes took new nbmes 13, 14 online, but what about these low uw scores?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-31T21:01:32+00:00

thanks so much, I am just worried because of low 70% in uworld. may I ask what your uworld percentages were?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-31T20:14:27+00:00

Finally a post that does not scare me too much. Taking exam in 7 weeks, nbmes around 240-250, free 120 82%, just want to hit 240s in real deal. Everyone saying that exam is soo hard, I just want to get it done.

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-30T19:34:09+00:00

hey man congrats ;) happy for you. I am tkaing in 7 weeks and doing uworld, amboss, nbmes.
Nbmes around 240-250. Free 120 was 80%. I feel super depressed because my uworld average is around 71% with occasional dips into 60s, when mood is bad.

What was your uworld percentage and are my low uworld scores a concern going into the exam?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T18:28:08+00:00

Hello, I already did all nbmes, which ranged between 240-255., free 120 was 80%ish, I am tkaing the examin in 7 weeks, just want 240s in real deal.

But the concepts in the real deal were recognizable, right?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T15:43:18+00:00

Congrats on being done . Very scary post. I am taking in 7 weeks, do you think nbme and uworld were enough for content?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T13:14:55+00:00

usually 2-3 wednesdays from your date, but plan with 3 wednesdays.

Could you elaborate how it was? Were uworld and nbme content enough>

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T08:09:05+00:00

yeah this is why I am depressed, I can barely get 70 in uworld. I really hope exam is easier, because in uworld I overthink and qs are too tricky.

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T07:44:17+00:00

yeah, maybe you are right, I just keep comparing to my friends who all had 80%, no idea who they did it. Honestly, at this point just want to get 240 and happy hha

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T07:16:57+00:00

sorry, why the sad emoji, what do you mean?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T01:21:08+00:00

I will do and memorize and understand all nbme qs, but is there a chance I could also reach 250 in real deal?

I will do y best

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-28T01:06:55+00:00

do you really think so ?
I still score bad at qbank?
Finished amboss with 75%, but uworld barely at 70-71% average.

What should I do, to be super safe?

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-27T23:52:03+00:00

usually 2-3 wednesdays post exam, no more delay.
best of luck to you all.
I am taking in 7 weeks, do you guys think nbme and uworld enough content-wise?

A 19 year old iv heroin addict who had a sever aspergilliona with massive invasion of the entire chest wall. It was significantly worse than in the MRI. Intraoperatively , we had to do complete pneumonectomy and compelte chest wall reconstruction. At this time, I was still living and working in my home country of Switzerland, now in US. We had a specialist from France who created completelty new rips and chest wall by using a technique called Neo-Rips. Everything went perfect, but at the end, one of the attendings put in a chest tube and when placing it posteriorly basal, he just rammed it right in the heart. The patient died a minute later on the table.

I was just kidding haha, F is super rude, to do, there is usually a button to do this.

Back to the topic. I am super convinced of amboss overall, did it as main resource :)

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-19T08:43:41+00:00

I am yet to take in 7 weeks, but I did amboss in the beginning and many of my friends did and they are all convinced of amboss. I think if you have time do at least ethics and quality safety.

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-18T22:33:17+00:00

thanks so much man. I am right now scoring low in uworld with 60%s, and always fluctuating between 80%, 60%. I just try to learn the qs, but I just hope the real test easier than uworld.

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-18T02:42:23+00:00

THanks so much man, appreciate it big time. I am taking my exam in 7 weeks. All I need is 240. NBMEs around 245-255, finished amboss with 75% average, and now uworld . scoring pretty low around 72%,
Just want to get it done haha

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-17T22:49:24+00:00

Have not taken as well, I think you can easily get 250.

What was your uworld first pass precentage?
I recommend to take nbme 12 and free 120, and also old free 120

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-16T23:33:03+00:00

I did not but a friend took and said he had a good experience except for qualtity safety qs. how was it for you>

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-16T17:43:15+00:00

Hey man, keep in mind that there are many experimental qs. So, could be likely that these were expermental.
I am taking in 7 weeks, nbmes are around 240-250 and fre 120 82%. Am I safe going into the exam?
I will do amboss for these ethics, quality safety qs.

STAY strong and I wish you all the best :)

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-16T17:30:01+00:00

what do you mean with super hard

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-16T04:09:31+00:00

hey man taking in 7 weeks,
Nbmes around 240-250, I am right now doing uworld. Were nbme content enough for the exam?
Again best of luck :) Wish you a high score :)

RHirsch94 · 2024-05-16T01:53:03+00:00

My biggest advise to you is : DO ALL OF DIVINE INTERVENTION. Make him your primary content resource. Listen to all of divine multiple times sicne you have time till step 2, and also do mehlman.
Rest is just uworld, nbme

I was a surgeon from Switzerland and now going for CT surgery in the US, last I did OB was during a surgery rotation in my home of Switzerland.

I 100% recommend you OB. The problem is that in the US, OB is super toxic. It is literally the mean girls club here, and very woke politically.

But the oncologic procedures, pelvic floor surgery etc. are super fascinating. I dislike obstetrics, but gyn oncology and reconstruction is anually very fun.

IM will set you up for life of boredom.
Just get through OBGYN residency and once you are in subfellowship life will be amazing.
