I passed!

tears of joy! my hard work paid off.

4-6 weeks study!

this is my advice, if you have 4-6 weeks dedicated time

just use these two sources and one of the many online qbanks available.

this is more than enough to get a good score on the exam!

There's no point in rereading robbins or any textbooks or for that matter studying 6 months!

this test is not about intelligence, it's about your intuition, how you think and process information in a small amount of information.

just remember this test doesn't define you at all. you could get a 99, but be a complete you-know-what in terms of working relations with hospital staff just because you 'know it all'.

Thanks SquireX

I'm sure you did well too. I don't have an explanation why your score is delayed since it should have been delivered to you the 9th at 330pm german time (6 hour difference from Philly ECFMG office).

Good luck for step 2 CK

i'm trudging through the mud, which is Internal Med - cardiovascular but I expect next week to go smoothly.
