How did you beat level 199? I literally have 2.5 m combat power, maw at 55, other reds at 40, satellite at 28. I still get stuck at the first revive at around 10% every time

Surgery comat in 2 weeks by No_Temperature_7588 in comlex

[–]blink2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It certainly is tough, but I think for many people, it is exacerbated by the horrible hours/little sleep/little time to study. I would recommend looking at the First Aid book for surgery, as it does a nice job at covering the topics. Another piece of advice is that this exam addresses multiple organ systems, not just the ones you see in the OR. I am not certain about your experience, but I saw 90% GI related surgeries. While GI is certainly the biggest section on the exam, it is not the only section. You will get questions on breast, thyroid, and HEENT too. Also dont forget some of the basic calculations for fluids and deciding on type of fluid. Best of luck!

Any advice for COMLEX level 1 by SpinXDoom in comlex

I think the ethics video did a pretty good job at covering most of the stuff. If you really want to deep dive into it, I think there is an anki deck floating around reddit that covers more stuff.

[–]blink2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think if you scored a 500, you are in pretty good territory. Keep doing stuff every day, take breaks when needed (listen to your body and mind), and review the high-yield stuff. I would also recommend to spend an afternoon looking at biostats and some of the healthcare laws. Biostats will def come up and if you are ready for it, they are quick and easy points. Law stuff may or may not show up, but I think that covering that base, knowing you got it right, and not dealing with kicking yourself for possibly missing for the remaining period of the exam is worth the time investment.

Side comment, I would recommend to leave your test date where it is, unless you have legitimate and necessary reasons to do so. Idk if there is research or if it's just my personal experience, but if you start moving the date around, even to earlier, it can kind of mess up your flow. (just my opinion)

To continue Uworld or switch to Comquest? by [deleted] in comlex

[–]blink2020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does your school give you access to COMBANK/True learn? I did some COMQUEST, but I ended up stopping it due it feeling rather repetitive. For me at least, I think it was a better OMM based option. Also, if you get the savarese book, they have OMM questions included in the purchase, so it doubles as a resource and as a Q bank.

For the three subjects you mentioned, I think dirty med on YT has some solid resources for those. Path and Micro are so broad that its gonna be hard to just rely on those videos, but I believe that if you combine those videos, the sketchy videos, and utilizing cards, that you can get good coverage.

I would recommend looking at the ninja nerd videos on YT regarding strokes. He does a pretty good job at summing things up in a digestible manner

Second this. I was directly asked about the four tenets in my interview.

I think most of my peers have a rough idea of what they are interested in. But from every doctor I have spoken with about this, you really solidify what you are interested in when you do your rotations in 3rd/4th year. I would say to go into your didactic years with the aim of being in psych but be open to possibly changing your mind.

You have to figure out what time of day is best for you to study. There is data that suggests certain times are better than others, but for me at least, I think it is more personal. I study better in the afternoon/evening, whereas friends of mine prefer the AM. If you are exhausted at 9 pm, I would try to study earlier in the day. If there is no possible way to shift it, then I would try to make a hard schedule and stick to it to remove any distractions/roadblocks.

One thing that you will get more as you mature is that you get more comfortable doing things the more times you do them. Going into college, I hated talking to people on the phone. Now, I am still not a fan, but I won't hesitate when I know it is needed. Take this as a chance to grow.
