hello guys... i need a bit of help .... my step 1 quarter is july august september of 2011. my UW finished on 18 june with average of 70+....my avg scores had started from 68.
today i did UWSA1 with UW assessment score of 670 and 3 digit score of 252.
even before taking this test i knew i was really rusty in micro and immuno as i havent looked through the course books be it first aid or kaplans ever since i had started UW. that was back in end of may.
now i still have UWSA2 subscription (which i can use if i want to) and i plan to give nbme before my actual exam. but i need advice on both.
which nbme forum should i take? i plan to take just one and if good score than well and good (cant to multiple forums unless godforbid i score really low on first nbme forum).which one should it be 7 .... 11 ..... 12...... or any other? and should i do the UWSA2 aswell or not......
secondly i was planning to take exam date say around 20 to 30 july. is that good enough? should i delay it or make it earlier?on side note i intend to go through UW notes that i made once again and do first aid and bits and pieces of stuff i lack in from here and there.
and one final query..... while doing UWSA i was feeling like an idiot as if i dont know anything...... is it like that for everyone or am i just the nervous wreck type?
thanks alot for your answers in advance
