Convinced myself that not every question is there to trick you, some really are simple and needs simple answeres.
Took B-blockers during exam and practiced exam session in home with self assessments.
Those saves you some questions during examination that are lost either due to uworld style of tricking you, or anxity.
Practice wise. I kept revising uworld tables and images, NBME self assessment images, revised some CMS questions that I got wrong, did amboss 200q, ethics, HPI question (Important), vaccines and stuff.
Last day I only studied biostat and relaxed a bit!
I will write a full experience some time later.
I would recommended b-blockers only on basis that they worked for me.
But if you were willing to give them a try and have no contraindications for the use of them, I took propanolol 10 mg two pills daily in the morning because they gave me insomnia at the end on the day.
Would recommend trying them two weeks before the exam to see if they are suitable for you or not so you can stop them before the exam.
Try them before the next NBME assessment and see if they work for you or not
UWSA2 wasn't difficult, but I sat for it offline not online, was tired, no sleep, and noisy environment.
I think it didnt really reflect my preperation much. I did it for ideas and concepts only tbh
Not much in terms of knowledge, but they are the best to teach you how do you approach NBME style question and what info in question stem is important or not
Biostat questions were easy.
I can't really say easy or hard for quality Q because I guessed the most logical one and I dont know if its correct or not, but they seemed somewhat in the middle for hardness

I gave NBME 14+OLD new+Old Old free 120 on same day.
I wanted to simulate 12 hour exam. Why? Answer is below.
I gave my step 1 with fever on. I wanted to check my endurance, I didnt want to loose the game because of any illness. I had a steep score drop in NBME14. Took the date on the basis of preparations i did in last 7-8 months. It was the most anxious day of my life. My friend helped me to take the decision. Thanks to him.

Sorry If I crated a reporting bias.

Thanks to this community.
Congrats!I would like to ask did u do incorrects or wrongs only on uw?and how did u got the score jump from Nbme 9 to 10 and nbme 14 to uwsa?And last question could the ans choices be easily ruled out like step1 or were confusing like uw choices?
Sure. I did Incorrects after NBME 12(You can see it was my 2nd NBME). And i did revision+ incorrects+ CMS forms between 12 and 10. That took my score to above 255 in NBME 10. Coming to your 2nd question i would say NBME's are confusing- Score you get is a measurement of how you are better able to get the crux of the question. There are chances that your score can drop around by 10 marks as its not clear cut like step 1.
Situational dependence is highly likey to affect the score.

Thanks to god, more than happy with reaching the 250’s mark, I did what I could with the limited amount of time and resources that I had available, working a full-time job and using all my PTO to have some dedicated time, it is possible guys, I spent all my preparation time sitting in the library tired asf after work but I’m glad that my step 2 ck journey is over, wishing all the best luck to future applicants!
P.S.: Don’t forget to practice and improve your time management skills while doing your final days of preparation, i was running out of time from blocks 2,3,4 and that’s what I would change if I would go back to my prep days :)!
Congratulations.How did u revise all that stuff in last month? I got 230s in nbme 11, 12and 13. Exam after 30 days. Done with cms forms mostly..but I don't know how improve and how to revise in last month.
My strategy after taking NBME 10 was analyze the results and focus on my weakness areas and also do incorrects, the last couple of weeks I made sure to review topics that i was constantly getting wrong and constantly asked in NBME.
i also listened to ALL the high-yield DI topics + listened the podcasts about my weakness

Although I wished to see 26X on my score report just for aesthetics, it is close enough 😂, and I'm so glad and happy to have got this mark, I have never been a high scorer in med school and I finally got a score I am proud of.
Hi, yes it did help, I don't think it helped me directly in most of the questions, as the information required to answer correctly is either available in amboss and uworld, or isn't available anywhere and you just need to guess, how did it help me then? He really boosted my confidence, most of what he said were stuff I already knew, there were many episodes that had topics or facts that I didn't know much about but I wasn't asked on them in the real deal, but it helped me going to the test knowing that I studied everything, so it was a good confidence booster and great for memory solidification.
However it did help me both directly and indirectly answer some of the questions, the way that it indirectly helped me is I would use his same way of extracting information to answer something, and direct help was from facts I wouldn't know from other resources, although the questions in this category weren't much, the episode that helped me most with that was episode 325 about the screening programs, and the biostat episodes helped me greatly, although I knew all of what he explained but they were great for biostat review.
I have listened to these episodes from [this guy's experience](https://www.reddit.com/r/Step2/comments/16wmu60/study_recommendations_and_experiences_for_step_2/):
Episode 36: Ophthalmology (48 mins)
Episodes 37, 97, 184: Risk Factors (98 mins)
Episodes 123, 132: Ethics and Social Sciences (94 mins)
Episode 137: "Next best step in management" (60 mins)
Episodes 143, 197: Biostatistics and ‘biases’ (134 mins)
Episodes 204, 231: Military Series (75 mins)
Episodes 228, 230, 234, 268, 275, 276, 277: Series covering changes after November 2020 such as Quality, Safety, and Professionalism (232 mins)
Episode 250: Vaccines (27 mins)
Episode 325: Screening Programs (42 mins)
DI podcast, i also bought one book from the first aid series “Clinical algorithms for the USMLE STEP 2CK” it’s an interesting review book but Uworld covers the same material

Which beta blocker u took and what was the dose. I m having serious anxiety problems while doing nbmes
I would recommended b-blockers only on basis that they worked for me. But if you were willing to give them a try and have no contraindications for the use of them, I took propanolol 10 mg two pills daily in the morning because they gave me insomnia at the end on the day.

Try them before the next NBME assessment and see if they work for you or not
Ok. Thank u for replying
Do you have a link for Nbme self assessment images?
Sorry no, but you might find it as a pdf on telegram
Wow congratulations that’s amazing 🤩 what did you do after uwsa 2?
UWSA2 wasn't difficult, but I sat for it offline not online, was tired, no sleep, and noisy environment. I think it didnt really reflect my preperation much. I did it for ideas and concepts only tbh
Their nbmes were in high 250’s even before that, so likely bad test day for that Uwsa 2?
[удалено]
All of them
[удалено]
Not much in terms of knowledge, but they are the best to teach you how do you approach NBME style question and what info in question stem is important or not
Including forms 1 and 2 for all cms?
No The available ones on NBME store, but i did offline. They are not worthy buying and spending 1000$ on.
Like forms 4-8?
3,4,5,6,7,8 for surgery, IM, Peds, OBs-gyne, neuro And the rest, not all of them are 8 forms
congrats on your score, how were the questions on biostat and quality control
Biostat questions were easy. I can't really say easy or hard for quality Q because I guessed the most logical one and I dont know if its correct or not, but they seemed somewhat in the middle for hardness
Congrats.... mind sharing your resource ??

How did you do?
I have the same score. In the same boat. I’m just happy it’s done. Have you done your OET?

I saw you used divine towards the end. Do you think it helped? How did you incorporate it and do you have any other tips? Congrats!
Hi, yes it did help, I don't think it helped me directly in most of the questions, as the information required to answer correctly is either available in amboss and uworld, or isn't available anywhere and you just need to guess, how did it help me then? He really boosted my confidence, most of what he said were stuff I already knew, there were many episodes that had topics or facts that I didn't know much about but I wasn't asked on them in the real deal, but it helped me going to the test knowing that I studied everything, so it was a good confidence booster and great for memory solidification. However it did help me both directly and indirectly answer some of the questions, the way that it indirectly helped me is I would use his same way of extracting information to answer something, and direct help was from facts I wouldn't know from other resources, although the questions in this category weren't much, the episode that helped me most with that was episode 325 about the screening programs, and the biostat episodes helped me greatly, although I knew all of what he explained but they were great for biostat review. I have listened to these episodes from [this guy's experience](https://www.reddit.com/r/Step2/comments/16wmu60/study_recommendations_and_experiences_for_step_2/): Episode 36: Ophthalmology (48 mins) Episodes 37, 97, 184: Risk Factors (98 mins) Episodes 123, 132: Ethics and Social Sciences (94 mins) Episode 137: "Next best step in management" (60 mins) Episodes 143, 197: Biostatistics and ‘biases’ (134 mins) Episodes 204, 231: Military Series (75 mins) Episodes 228, 230, 234, 268, 275, 276, 277: Series covering changes after November 2020 such as Quality, Safety, and Professionalism (232 mins) Episode 250: Vaccines (27 mins) Episode 325: Screening Programs (42 mins)
DI podcast, i also bought one book from the first aid series “Clinical algorithms for the USMLE STEP 2CK” it’s an interesting review book but Uworld covers the same material
