I ended up with Step 1 score of 264. I'm a European IMG and I had a 10 week dedicated period. It’s a subreddit that’s dedicated to sharing knowledge./r/TodayILearned community is extremely active and the thread gets updated with new and interesting information on a daily basis.
I'm not the world's most productive person to be honest often that meant 5 hours of productiveness/video watching in an "8 hour" day. I kept track of my productive hours during each day and ended up taking about an hour per hour of video. I watched every single video except for biostats (my strongest subject), mostly on 1.5-1.7x speed but I ended up rewinding every now and then. I had a dedicated period of about 10 weeks and all in all spent 4 weeks on B&B in the first half of dedicated.
I also downloaded all the PDF lecture notes which aren't in great format but was helpful for recall later in the period.I realize my plan is a bit unusual by most standards so I'm reluctant to recommend doing it just like I did but it did work for me and so I'm putting it out there. TBH I did benefit significantly from that but I don't regret that I didn't do more Anki. I did not use Anki either except towards the end of my dedicated for a few isolated groups of diseases (glycogen storage diseases, commonly tested biochemistry-related diseases).
Ryan said at least in the moment I was watching it, replaying as often as I needed. Writing stuff down on paper won’t magically write into your brain.To begin, I made sure I heard and understood everything Dr. (Unfortunately, many lecturers in med school make truly useless lecture notes – not the case with the major materials for Step 1). Lecture notes, FA), I can look it up there if I need it, hopefully in a better format than whatever I can come up with and by using Ctrl-F if the author isn’t opposed to technology and progress. If it’s already written down somewhere (i.e.
I decided UWorld would be my review. I made that my priority.Secondly, all the comprehensive materials for step 1 basically cover the same stuff, including FA, B&B and UWorld. It also made sense to me that you should cover everything at least once if at all possible (what you don’t know of core materials is the highest yield). I have always been a fan of gaining understanding of the material I'm studying and the B&B lectures are much more conductive to that strategy than FA. Using just FA, retention is almost impossible without a lot of effort and auxiliary techniques like Anki. Watching the lectures is waaay different from reading First Aid, which I did try for a bit before going into dedicated.
I also decided that this would reflect the importance of each subject matter what appears in both UWorld and B&B is likely to be higher yield and is more important to spend time on reinforcing – the stuff that only appears in one and not the other is more likely to be on the verge.I should add here that right after going over B&B I scored 258 on UWSA1. This counts to me as repetition of the material. I later (after watching Pathoma too) finished most of the rest of UWorld in random timed tutor mode (actually I only finished 85% which annoyed me a bit but it doesn’t seem to have harmed my score too bad).
The things I really kept coming back to and forgetting I ended up doing in Anki. I might have spent a couple of hours at a time at major concepts like the algorithms for gram positives/negatives and viruses. If I felt that wasn’t enough I sometimes had specific books on hand but tried not to get bogged down with a single concept. Usually I first went back to B&B lecture notes or used a PDF version of First Aid (Ctrl-F FTW). I used whatever materials I could think of when reviewing. Later scores were NBME16 with 244 two weeks out and then UWSA2 with 264 a couple of days before step 1 so it’s a bit hard to say how much exactly I kept improving in the latter half of the period.Third, when I reviewed a question for some reason (which I did when I got a question wrong, when I didn’t feel like I really knew why I got it right or when I just felt it was important and I hadn’t really gained a grasp on the material) I treated it as representative for a whole concept which I needed to understand.
I was an average student in my preclinical years. I also came to feel that a second run of UWorld would be more a consolidation of my memory of UW questions and less a reinforcement of concepts – unseen material would be more useful.In summation, I really can’t say whether this approach would work for everyone. You don’t prepare for a marathon by running daily marathons. However, I say the test format is exhausting and repeating it day in and day out will bring fatigue and diminish interest/concentration in reviewing the questions you’ve done. It’s probably a good thing to do a few test runs (i.e.
I found out about it 2-3 weeks before dedicated started, and seriously wish I would have used it throughout my first 2 years of med school.Regarding schedule, my dedicated period is 5 weeks. B&B has been a lifesaver in terms of going through it. I hate reading FA, cannot for the life of me read one page without losing concentration. Ryan explains things very well, and ties in concepts that would otherwise be lost by just reading FA. I still like to apply a learning method more based in understanding than rote memorization and I feel that a kind of mixed approach worked this time.I am currently in dedicated and using B&B and love it! I think Dr.
Just wanted to share my experience because I was also unsure about starting B&B at one point, and for me it turned out to be one of the most valuable resources out there. He actually explains how the drugs work, which makes it much easier (at least for me) to remember them.I haven't taken Step 1 yet, so please take my advice with a grain of salt. I was also doubting if I should watch the pharm videos since I have been using Sketchy for that, but I am extremely happy I did. I watch every video at 2X and do not take any notes, with the exception of some flowcharts.
