My Step 1 Study Guide

Hello! I recently took the step 1 test and passed and I thought I'd share what I did to study and prepare just in case it helps anyone out. Plus advice i'd give looking back on things i didn't do. Hopefully this helps and sorry it's so long. Feel free to send me asks on anything at all!

1: during m1/m2 year -> utilize the Anking deck/study sheets + first aid + things and videos like amboss/scholarrx/sketchy/boards and beyond + pathoma as you go through the blocks. Don't focus on step studying but utilize these resources to bolster your block exams. I used anking & sketchy & first aid primarily but kinda too late and i wish i utilized it earlier. Also, if your school doesn't have step 1 style test questions overall (like mine did for a bit) i'd do scholarrx questions to practice right before a test (it helped me with the tests and also got me to see patterns ahead of time). I wouldn't start using UWorld right away, at least not intensely. If you want a first pass you could start in November/December but honestly for me that was too much so I didn't.

2: Last block/pre-dedicated -> Make a study plan. You can use things like cram fighter or you can do it by hand or in excel/google sheets. If you need mine as an example feel free to ask, though my general plan was review first aid/content review/practice exams and questions/free 120/rest/exam in that order and i did the stuff i forgot first and ended with the info i did in my last block which was msk/derm/heme/onc/ct. It should be noted that you must tell yourself now that this plan won't be adhered to 1000% and you will get behind and you will just say fuck it to some stuff as you go. And be honest with yourself that you may give up studying earlier than you think or sleep in a lot of days. Just be kind to yourself now. This is just a guide to help you, not a strict rule book. For example, i meant to do cardio block review in 2 days and my mental health tanked so it took me like 5 days and i still had a ton of questions i couldn't do.

3: Dedicated ->

Prioritize getting through First Aid srsly and supplement it as you do content review. I read First aid one pass and then i supplemented information from Boards and Beyond videos and some information from pathoma. Mostly, i kept my notes within the pathoma textbook (as i bought a subscription and received the textbook).

As you do content review do Uworld questions and once you get through review really prioritize practice questions and finishing Uworld. You won't realistically finish all questions or blocks but at least try to do as much as you can. I ended Dedicated about 64% through. With Uworld your average will be low and at times will barely improve, honestly as long as you are improving on the net and your average is 40% or higher i think you're doing just fine imo (as that was my experience). UWorld is meant to be harder. When you do UWorld at first do tutor mode and always write down questions you guessed on/got wrong/don't understand in a notebook for review later. I wish i had made anki on them as i went along but i was too burnt out for that realistically for many reasons.

Looking back on it i watched every sketchy but i wish i at least did the anking for the sketchy (as i did no anking during dedicated) to help me remember.

Do practice exams. I did 1 uworld one and 4 NBME tests plus the free 120. the UWorld one in my opinion was not worth it and it lowered my confidence majorly as it was so fucking hard and full of trick questions. The NBME ones were much more useful. The free 120 was the most useful as many of the questions you get may reappear on step, and so it's the best one to do the week of your test so it's fresh in your mind. Make sure as always you review the questions you got wrong because it's so so helpful.

Day before the exam what do i do? -> maybe light review (ie stuff you got wrong a lot, some anki, first aid notes) but otherwise do nothing. srsly just rest, eat, and go to bed!

Remind yourself that you just need to pass. 60% is passing. No one will know your score. It's pass fail!

4: What resources do you recommend? Don't? Etc? ->

Resources I used: Boards and Beyond (videos), Pathoma (videos and textbook), First Aid, Sketchy Micro & Pharm, UWorld, NBME Practice tests (the CBSE), NBME free 120.

Usefulness of the resources: I really found everything I used to be useful but there's some stipulations. I found that neither UWorld nor First Aid prepared me for the biostats questions well other than memorizing equations. Biostats/public health is often a lot more problem solving oriented not just "can you do an odds ratio" for ex, so the NBME practice exams were more useful for that concept. I also did not find every boards and beyond video useful so there were many i skipped, esp pharm videos as i used sketchy! Along with first aid i bought the other first aid book, the clinical reasoning one. TBH it is a useful book (i used it a bit during my blocks) but during dedicated i was so tired and didnt have time to use it so do with that what you will. Sketchy was so so useful esp for micro but like I said i wish i supplemented with Anki. Also, Boards and Beyond cardio was so helpful but a lot of info i skipped through as i found it too detailed for step overall, but it is good to use looking back on it for clerkships i imagine (as there's info specific to clinical practice).

Anki specifically: I stopped all anki during dedicated because I just was too overwhelmed and couldn't keep up with it. Looking back I would've used Anki a lot earlier than i did during the blocks and kept up with it in small amts cumulatively, and then during dedicated done the sketchy ANKI primarily/old reviews/+anki for stuff i got wrong on questions a lot to make it easier. But, i still did well without it during dedicated.

5: test day tips ->

if you have stomach problems like me don't drink caffeine and prioritize sleep the night before (if you can tolerate caffeine then this is fine).

Pack lots of snacks that you know you will be able to eat while exhausted and stressed. I find it hard to eat something heavy on days like that, so i packed things like grapes/oranges/granola/pretzels/pbj/beef jerky. Stuff that would fill me and fuel me but not make me feel sick. Pack lots of water and potentially Gatorade or something.

Go to the bathroom before you enter the exam room.

Before the test day plan how you will take your breaks (this helped me because it was really overwhelming otherwise) and then you'll be able to read yourself on the test day to modify your break time.

Go through all the questions and then review marked ones and then review all of them together. Just know you will mark almost every question and it doesn't mean you got them wrong and failed.

6: other misc tips ->

just avoid the reddit. There are plenty of good advice plus links to resources (ie anking deck/etc.) on reddit and you should use it for that. But often i found the reddit to be a place that made me feel like i was gonna fail just like it was during MCAT/applying to school. I'd be like "is this score good" and they'd be like omg delay your test youre not gonna do well you should be scoring xyz. I just couldn't read that stuff, even if there was good and honest advice in between.

It's okay to push back your test/retake it if you have to (and can! It depends on your situation).

Consult an academic coach/advisor at your school during dedicated!

Work in groups: ie meet up with people at a library and use each other for accountability or if you need group review sessions please do that. All in all, just don't let yourself be isolated. Even do work with friends in other programs, just having ppl there will help you.

Prioritize sleep, food, water. Seems redundant to say but genuinely do this.

Change scenery a lot. Go to a cafe, go to school, go to a library or WeWork, go to your family's house, etc. It really will help you.

Regardless of your schedule and how well you follow it try to stop working at the same time every day. Set a time you will stop work forever and play video games or read a book or just collapse onto the couch. If you study 24 hours a day you will burn out faster.

Accommodations? How do i get those for the test -> this should be a post on it's own so i will just say if you want me to make a post on this I can. I had private room accommodations just to share! But there are many types of accommodations. Just know you really have to do this like a year/many months in advance!

That's really all i can think of. Just ask me if you have any q's! Goodluck ya'll.

How did you feel Step 1 prep compared to MCAT prep?

Quick disclaimer: I took the MCAT in 2018, and I'm sure study strategies have changed over the years. Also, I cared about my score on the MCAT for application purposes, but Step 1 is P/F. That said, here's a comparison of my personal experience with both exams:

MCAT:

I studied while working a full time job (approx 40hrs/week) with a shift schedule.

I used Kaplan books and online practice tests to prep. Typically, I would read through a section in Kaplan then do practice questions in the book.

I knew that my strengths would be the CARS and psych sections, and chem/phys would be my weakest section.

I took a handful of full-length practice exams until I reached my desired score.

Total study time: approximately 4 months.

Step 1:

I had dedicated study time, no classes or job.

I used First Aid, some anki flashcards, and UWorld practice questions. By the last month or so just doing a lot of practice questions proved to be the most helpful part of my studying.

I took both UWorld self-assessments plus 2 NBME practice exams (they're $60 each which I paid out of pocket, which sucked) and the "Free 120".

The most overwhelming part was having no structure which meant I procrastinated a ton, and didn't really develop a strong study method going into dedicated so I spent a lot of time figuring that out.

I had to delay my exam date multiple times and I was really anxious the whole time about the possibility of failing the exam. Eventually I managed to comfortably pass an NBME exam and the Free 120 so I just decided to go for it.

Total study time: approximately 3 months.

Test day:

Both exams were a pretty similar experience. I was worried about my ability to focus, but was able to sustain focus well throughout for both. The noise-cancelling headphones were extremely helpful. The rooms were also temperature-controlled and I dressed comfortably. I used all of my breaks to relax, sip some coffee, have a snack, and focus on the upcoming block. Overall, neither exam was as difficult or as terrifying as I had built it up to be in my mind.

Hope that answers your question!

USMLE test-taking strategies

Commence Early Initiating USMLE test preparation at an early stage is paramount. It's crucial to recognize that the USMLE isn't solely about memorization; comprehensive understanding and adept analysis of basic medical science concepts are imperative. Therefore, it's advisable to embark on your USMLE preparation journey as soon as you decide to pursue it. The process of assimilating information from your medical institution should ideally commence from the very outset of your medical schooling.

Select Study Resources Wisely Choosing appropriate USMLE study resources is a pivotal aspect of preparation. It's imperative to acknowledge that success in the exam hinges significantly on adopting tailored, authentic, and pertinent study materials. A prudent approach involves opting for a comprehensive and well-balanced USMLE support program and diligently completing the curriculum from start to finish.

Monitor Progress Effective progress tracking is of paramount importance. Success in academic endeavors necessitates meticulous planning and adherence to a realistic schedule. A structured system of periodic tests and detailed performance analyses is indispensable. This system not only evaluates your progress but also offers insights and guidance for further improvement, a feature integral to the MOKSH USMLE module.

Practice Real-Time Scenarios Full-length mock tests conducted in real-time are invaluable for USMLE preparation. These practice tests, particularly online simulations like NBME practice tests, are indispensable for acclimating to the exam format and time constraints. Creating a stressful environment by imposing stricter time limits than those allotted in the actual exam is beneficial for enhancing performance under pressure.

Perseverance and Consistency Perseverance and consistency are indispensable for any meaningful pursuit, including USMLE preparation. Many aspirants begin with enthusiasm but falter along the way. It's advisable to commence at a manageable pace that can be sustained over the long term. Consistency is paramount for achieving both short-term and long-term preparatory objectives.

USMLE: Preparation Guide and Planner Tool

Know your position before drafting your USMLE Step 1 Study Plan. Have you taken the NBME evaluation test already? Take this comprehensive, timed practice exam if you haven't before, and at least two months before the USMLE Step 1 schedule deadline. Your NBME results will assist you in preparing for the USMLE Step 1 exam by letting you know the topics you must study in order to pass with the target score. You have a solid knowledge base if you received a score of 200 or higher, so the majority of your USMLE Preparation time should be spent on review and practice questions.

If you received a score below that, you will need to put up a lot of work to re-learn the material in order to pass the Step 1 exam the first time or to receive a score that is more competitive. When planning your study schedule, be honest with yourself about your starting point in knowledge to increase your chances of success. You will feel more confident going into the exam if you are familiar with the format, which will help you concentrate better.

Take a practice test at least two weeks before the real exam because a poor performance could be upsetting. Let's examine a three-month schedule's general format. For the greatest results, most USMLE Step 1 test takers advise starting your preparation at least three months before the exam, but six months is ideal. Students who study abroad, had a difficult time during their pre-clinical years, or who have had significant gaps from their studies, on the other hand, should begin reviewing a year in advance.

Determine your personal strengths and weaknesses after receiving your NBME results, as well as the subjects that need the greatest attention throughout your USMLE Step Preparation period, then decide what method of study works best for you. Studying for the USMLE doesn't have to feel like a hassle, in our opinion at DAMS.

Create a Step 1 study schedule once you have a clear understanding of the factors that must be taken into account to develop a strategy for your Step 1 preparation that will yield the greatest results. After giving yourself adequate time to review the material in your study plan, choose a date for the USMLE Step 1 exam. Keep in mind that you don't have to experience it alone.

Every single medical student frequently has a different amount of preparation time. The recommended study period is four to six weeks. If you need more time to devote to carefully preparing because you find a few exam topics challenging, then take it. To avoid burnout and general irritation, make sure you take regular breaks. You should study extensively in preparation for the USMLE because it is a lengthy exam.

Depending on your normal routine and other commitments, USLME Preparation may take longer. You are able to study for up to 12 hours a day with a committed four- to six-week schedule. Reduce your daily study time and spread it out over a longer period of time if you are unable to have a fixed timetable. For instance, if you reduce your study time to six hours each day, add an extra four weeks to your study period.

Step 1 preparation may take three to four months or four to six weeks. The amounts of time you spend overall getting ready for the USMLE depends depend on how strict your study strategy is. You should still take breaks and test yourself on the content, even if you have a strict study schedule. We advise devoting one week to each subject and testing yourself at the conclusion of each week.

In three months, you can absolutely prepare for the USMLE. If you are well-versed in your basic medical knowledge, it might even take you less time! But it's always better to be on the safe side. You can improve your confidence and memory recall for the demanding eight-hour exam day with more study time.

The optimum study plan involves dedicating all of your available study time over the last few weeks before the test. Schedule breaks during your study days and only study when you can give it your full concentration.
