I believe people reading this thread can have an estimation of the timeline but should NOT follow it as everyone has a different aptitude.
Good Luck and Cheers Buddies and Don't forget First Aid If you wanna Ace this beast ... Lol
It would be nice also to know under what conditions? I mean... "old" IMG were working or just preparing the exam...this can be a bias in making a conclusion.
I would like to make the question that: the years for graduation are inversely proportional to the score?
IMG, from pakistan
time taken; 4 months,
average hours of study; 3-5 at max
other activities; post graduate training, part time private job, could get only 7 days leave from my hospital for the exam n none from the private job Happy-2

so i would say if u can give it a little more time thn u can easily score higher.
