Can you explain your weekly study plan structure?
I prioritized multiple passes through my resources as the key to successful studying. For the first four weeks, I focused on an in-depth first pass of First Aid (FA) while using Pathoma as a supplement. In addition, I completed around 60% of UWorld during this time. Each day, I selected question sets aligned with the material I was studying in First Aid.
I went through FA for the second time during weeks five and six. I used Doctors in Training to reinforce difficult concepts like biochemistry, pharmacology, microbiology, leukemia/lymphoma, and ovarian and testicular tumors. I completed UWorld on random mode and began reviewing the questions I got wrong. In week six and the first half of week seven, I did a high-speed run-through of FA, spending two minutes per page. I also finished reviewing the questions I answered incorrectly in UWorld. The day before the exam, I spent half the day doing flashcards and the rest of the day relaxing.
