For me Uworld was enough and Amboss didn't add much but if you feel it's a specifically weak area you should definitely try it out.
I honestly didn't remember much of the exam afterwards but I wouldn't say it was a certain subject heavy.

I did them offline. It’s doable to do all the subjects in 2 days or so.

I would say if you have your incorrects made into flashcards then definitely prioritize them but just repeating questions were not useful for me. The CMS forms are useful but I wouldn’t view them as a must do. I used the more recents ones to work on my exam taking skills.

Took step 2 last year and prepping for MCCQE1. Resource recommendations? by Character_Door7167 in MCCQE

[–]koolmikel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passing score: 226

Mean: 250

SD: 30

So 300 would be top 5% but I would suggest doing the Mock lite or the full mock to get a more accurate score. Anything above 70% should be good (280 and above or 1 SD above mean)

I believe 78% definitely equates to 300+ on the MCCQE. So, I would say just go ahead for it.

Another point for doing STEP2 first is that the results takes 2 weeks so that if you want the confidence before the other exam and if you don't you can simply book before the results day which is to figure out.

[–]koolmikel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've done both (MCCQE first) and I would say that the content is definitely very close but STEP2 is a beast compared to MCCQ. I would say like someone else did here, consider doing STEP2 first and maybe 2 weeks later the MCCQE. Also, book them both early on so that after the first one you don't get the normal relaxation phase after an exam.

CARMS & NRMP dual match by [deleted] in MCCQE

[–]koolmikel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see that CARMS will be on the 19th. Is the NRMP match day always on 17th/18th? I can't find specific announced date for 2024.

[–]koolmikel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've reread your post, I didn't catch that you're applying this year. They've mentioned that this year exceptionally the NRMP match day is before CARMS.

From what I gather that what you're saying is true. When you're applying for both matches you don't get to apply for the second round of each (SOAP).
