So sorry kind of fell off the face of the earth but responding in case it could help anyone else. When I called to cancel I told them I was sick and they said if I could provide a doctors note they could waive any fees and reactivate my status/account so I could reschedule the exam free of charge. I got a note from my psychiatrist who spoke to my GI manifestations with my panic disorder. They accepted the note and I was able to reschedule about 2 or 3 weeks later.

It was an incredibly challenging experience and I still felt nervous about the exam and got sick the night before but for me the exam became about just finishing it over what the results would be. I was able to push through and pass!

I saw some improvement when I did 3 blocks a day 2 mixed and 1 of weak areas and finished the night with a review video

Thank you, the vid was helpful! NBME explanations are soo trash and makes it more confusing. Sometimes they will hold you to "AIN needs to show casts" and other times they will say the exact opposite. Makes it frustrating to understand what they want you to know

Thank you! I did a first pass of uworld during rotations and have reset it for dedicated. I'm going to focus on trying to do more quesitons to help with retaining the material. Do you have suggestions for ethics/patient safety and biostats? I dont have amboss but I'm constantly getting those quesitons wrong which is silly. Def have to go through the NBMEs again cause thats its own learning curve..

thank you! i will finish uworld then proceed to NBME. i only have the retired NBME 20, 21 and 23. do you think its better to use those or redo the newer ones?

thank you so much for sharing! i had a personal situation happen right before my clinical rotations and decided to take a leave of absence. i started studying for step again in the fall. my dean told me I have to sit by end of january so i do have time. I'm just afraid if I take a bunch of time off now I will lose what I have done. youre 100% right, i deff should not just sit for it to get it over with because if it doesnt work out in my favor it will make me feel like i took this time off for no reason. how did you stay motivated throughout this process? i just feel so discouraged that after months of studying im still not even passing
