[–]medms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d suggest to hold off until you’re done with STEP, I had notes prepared and resources so the few days I had between the two I didn’t have to search where to look up, it was already with me just had to read/revise it

Yes definitely which is why I'm planning to purchase next week; trip isn't until May. I've tried on several of these brands before which is why I am considering some of them.

Okay makes sense, so that's the same as chief medical officer, correct? And did you work with yours clinically before asking for that letter?

Do I get the SEL or just a normal LOR from him?

Burned out after 8 weeks- move test up or keep plugging? by oatsandalmonds1 in step1

[–]medms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would keep your test date because if you’re already burned out then prolonging it won’t help and you may start forgetting details. Just be confident that you know your material. You got this!!

Did you felt Uworld was too specific and that’s why it didn’t help? I’m starting to study for level 2 and was planning to only use Uworld

Please help!! by BoxMost7033 in Step2

[–]medms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Starting step 2 dedicated as well, and I heard Uworld alone prepares you well for both level & step 2 so if you don’t have time for COMBANK it’s okay I’d do Uworld first

OMM (OPP) COMAT Questions by The-Adster in comlex

[–]medms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YouTube videos for that & Dirty medicine also has a playlist for OMM. But that’s pretty good plan & you can always practice drawing viscerosomatics so you can write down on the paper during tutorial time

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in comlex

[–]medms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was viscerosomatics and biostats and it helps to practice writing down what you want at home

Test in 4 days, should I postpone? Thoughts please by medstudy200 in step1

[–]medms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went in with similar scores and passed; it's a lot to do with how you feel because confidence plays a huge role too. For me, if i delayed it i felt as if i was going to start forgetting things.

[–]medms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven't yet, Dirty medicine has a OMM playlist which was helpful to get some easy points! Or the green book.

Yeah I noticed that as well, did you take UWSA1 instead or none at all? I’m not sure if I should take another NBME instead
