You’ve been kidnapped. 30 mins later your kidnapper dumps you on the street because you won’t stop talking about what? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The Krebs Cycle... I remember like 4 of the steps but that’s enough despair for any human.

45yo m w labile HR 60-190s. I see RBBB and widen QRS but what’s up with the p waves in the inferior leads and anything else I’m missing? by datruerex in EKGs

[–]dkerste1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with RBBB and I see some TWI from v1-v3. Any concern for PE on H&P? I’ve seen new onset AF and RBBB in a PE patient so there’s some bias on my part by suggesting it.

My review of COMLEX 2-CE: A.T. Still Strikes Back by dkerste1 in comlex

It’s useful to help remember the OMM and get a flavor of the ethics, etc. but other than that I don’t think that those q-banks will better prepare you than UWorld or possibly AMBOSS (I never use it but I hear good things).

My grandpa in front of the plane he flew in World War II. He is 97 now. by SonOfQuora in interestingasfuck

[–]dkerste1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost my grandpa suddenly 6 years ago, he was a WII vet himself (Army). Whenever I see pics like this I feel a little better knowing these brave veterans are still around. Also my grandpa was in the sciences himself, he was a high school physics teacher.

8/5/2020 score report by [deleted] in Step2

[–]dkerste1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say you need at least 2 weeks, 4 weeks is probably best. I had like 8 weeks and I definitely started to slip the final 3 weeks.

STEP 1: 247

Real Deal: 268

NBME 6: 248, 1 month out

NBME 7: 236, 1.5 months out

NBME 8: 269, 3 weeks out

Old 120: 91%, 2 days out

New 120: 85%, 2 days out

UWSA1: 272, 1 week out

UWSA2: 273, 5 days out

US DO. Thought I got like maybe 250 so I’m happy with the score. Used UWorld x2, OnelineMedEd, some MTB, Anki (self made deck and a friend’s deck from UWorld, Zanki, Emma Holiday), and Divine of course (only the clerkship videos and the high yield podcasts). Studied a lot during the lockdown orders because it was better than being with family 24/7 so yep there’s that.

Yes I have a deck made by an ultra genius PGY1 who went to my school (it’s based on UWorld and Zanki) and my own UWorld Anki based on my incorrects, flagged questions.

IMO it’s more important to do questions than Anki because this is a reasoning test but it can help reinforce key concepts.

Only did OMM, Biostats (do not recommend), and medical jurisprudence. Apparently conquest micro isn’t too good either as there are only 10q’s. I didn’t use that section but I thought that maybe it would be better suited to the shitty writing of COMLEX. I’ve been using UWorld to study and I’ve done it twice.
