If you've read kaplan 3x, read first aid 3x, and watched all the videos......then I think that ur understanding of the concepts needs quite a bit more work.

I took my STEP 1 abt 2 weeks ago (so Im still waiting for my score) and I can tell u that ur ability to derive the answer based on the situation they give u is the most important determinant of ur success on this exam............

Undergrad gpa: 3.75
MCAT: 26
SGU gpa: 3.93
STEP 1: 252/99
First time UWORLD: 60%
USMLE CD: 91% (one week out)

Took all NBME exams and scored 250 - 263.
Study material: Kaplan, DIT, goljan, uworld, and most importantly First AID

I can't wait to post here! In July I hope!

I am new to this forum. I'm trying to figure out how to prepare for this exam, having already failed twice. I took Falcon after my first attempt & was not pleased. Does anyone who has been to a prep course lately have any thoughts on the programs (Pass, Kaplan, etc.) and how long it took? I've heard so many different things, I'm not sure what to do. Thanks for any advice.
