waiting for too long for my turn to write down this...
i m nt gng to explain abt my preparation, coz its complicated, resources are same...
NBME 5: 99/236 (1 month before)
NBME 7: 99/238 (2 weeks before)
UW: 77 cumulative random, timed, no repeats.
all i wanna say that NBME made my life horrible, coz i was damn sure tht i hav attained enuf knwledge for usmle but these NBME's keep underestimating me.
i m in 3 rd year of my med school and i dnt hav knwledge of clinical subjects, this thing made me more terrible along with NBME scores....
but then i decided to give it on a huge risk... and finally i succeded.... yupeee
my advice: dnt totally rely on NBME's, may be the questions in them are only those in which u r weak.... u cant judge some one with 200 Q's.... if u are sure of ur own that u r prepared, go ahead and give the exam...
exam:
its very easy.... very doable, but it doesnt mean tht its good for us, u hav to make 90-95% of ur responses correct to get high 99.....
this forum is very helpful to me... but only for inspirations, experiences, score stories, not for knowledge.. i warn u ppl that DONT try solve Q's here, coz some ppl post direct Q's from NBME with out telling u.... and at the time of doing ur NBME's , u will face the same Q's and that NBME will over estimate u.....
i may be not frequent on this forum for some time, coz nw i will be focusing on my med school... i will give step 2 ck in 2013..... till then no stress....
for any further Q's : my skype id is : shaan.e.alam
