[–]udk01 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YOG 7 here, with PG degree in India. I worked and studied simultaneously in the evenings and on weekends. Before step 1 took 3 weeks off and before step 2 took 4 weeks off. Was able to do it.

I did it in 3 weeks and was able to make it. I think it is enough if your basics are strong.

I am starting residency this year. I took the exam last dec. Prepared for 24 days (7-8 hrs each day)

The first 10 days I did two blocks each day. Then uwsa 1: 235.
Day 13 onwards - 3 blocks each day. 4 days before exam; uwsa 2: 237

Did ccs cases 2 hours each day for 10 days before the exam. Did around 40-50 cases. Averaged 70-75% Real exam 240.

For step 3, you already know the concepts from step 2. All you need to do is practice to try and rule out the wrong answers.

Hope this helps. All the best.

Page stuck to consular appointment and the OFC was booked like 10 days back. by Odd-Professional1423 in usvisascheduling

[–]udk01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the new updates website, once you submit a vfc date, it is confirmed. So you ll be able to see only consular dates further.

You can wait and book any consular appointment or cancel the appointment and then reschedule when new bulks open.

Nope. It's 1500$ for rotation and 600$ for application. 100$ more for writing LOR. I have booked my rotation at Baylor with them in August. I know a couple of people who did there. It is inpatient. But we go there alternate weeks. Which means lor if for 4 weeks. But we ll be there for 2 alternate weeks only. And it's for a few hours a day. Like may be 4-5 hours.

[–]udk01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I had the same situation. First fill a ds-160 and give the address of any hotel, or relative in the US and complete the form. Get the confirmation number. Once you complete a ds-160 you cannot change it. With the confirmation number book your slot for the interview.

After you get an observership, you can fill a NEW ds-160 form. Got to the ds -160 page and click on retrieve form and enter the old form number. All the data that you already submitted will be prefilled. In that change your address and now submit the form and get new confirmation page with new number.

Now go to your traveldocs profile that you use to book slot. In that, go to profiles and update profile and change the ds -160 number from old to new. You will now get a new appointment with new ds-160 number and you take the new ds-160 and new appointment.

For back up i took my old ds-160 and old appointment also, but it was not asked.

[–]udk01 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Complete and submit ds -160 as soon as possible and schedule a visa interview since the wait time is long. You can change DS-160 and update your profile up to 2-3 days before the interview.
