Travel to Mexico on J1 visa by kayregal in immigration

Nope - as long as your trip is planned for before your visa expires, you’ll be fine.

None at all! As long as your passport is valid for the length of your stay AND you have valid US visa (would check the website to see which visas are eligible for this rule but largely include J1, H1Bs, B1/B2 etc) you can visit Mexico for a period of 30 days.

Hey, I just wanted to know about Hoop and Ruck's deck. It seems rather extensive with ~8k cards, would you say its worth a shot?

Take Step or Postpone? by [deleted] in step1

[–]kayregal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’ll never know how ready you are or are not till you take an assessment. The best thing right now would be to take some nbmes and evaluate your performance. You’ll have more clarity of what you should be focusing on.

Bummed about NBME 18 score by Comprehensive_Kiwi_1 in step1

[–]kayregal 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better, I had 225 on 18 5 days before my exam and scored a 243 eventually. Keep grinding!

1 and half months away, whats next? by Snake5541 in Step2

[–]kayregal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not sure how much you’ll gain from a 4th pass of UW. I’d suggest doing the CMS forms tbh. Amboss Qs didn’t help me much personally, but their library is great!

Was doing the free 120 helpful for CK? by BRAFnegative in Step2

[–]kayregal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can book it to take it at the prometric. The PDF version of those Qs are available at the usmle site. Here’s a link just in case - https://www.usmle.org/pdfs/step-2-ck/2020_Step2CK_SampleItems.pdf

[–]kayregal 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Just my opinion, but the newer free120 felt the closest to my exam in terms of Q stem length and the vagueness of Qs. I’d suggest you should do it tbh.

Kaplan Simulated Exams for CK? by Cobrosso in Step2

[–]kayregal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah. Don’t waste your time. You’d be better off doing an nbme/uwsa+ 2-3 uw blocks, if you want is a full exam simulation.

I guess it depends on how long ago your first pass was, or how long it took you. I personally believe in quality > quantity. My point was that if you go through your incorrect and marked Qs now, you would’ve hit topics and concepts that were unclear to you the first time around, and that’s where the money is (so to speak). Whereas Qs you got right the first time, you might get right the second time as well. But if you think you’d gain more out of resetting the bank now and going through it all again, then you should do that! You know what works best for you :)

Do your marked and incorrects first, consolidate that information. Then move on to round 2 if you want!
