the beginning of Step 1 to guide examinees on how to approach such questions. The tutorial provides tips and strategies for interpreting the graphic and tabular material that is commonly used in clinical situations.

The first stage is intended to assess how well an individual applies fundamental scientific concepts to practical situations. This portion of the examination contains questions that necessitate understanding graphical and tabular data, distinguishing between normal and abnormal specimens at a macroscopic or microscopic level and troubleshooting problems.

A tutorial accompanies Step 1, which offers helpful suggestions on how to confront these types of inquiries. It also covers techniques for interpreting graphical and tabular materials that are often utilized in clinical settings. At the commencement of the exam, provision is made to acquaint the examinee with the test software.

General principles

The human body is composed of various organ systems, including the hematopoietic and lymphoreticular systems, as well as the nervous and special senses systems. The skin and connective tissues form another organ system, while the musculoskeletal system supports movement. The respiratory and cardiovascular systems are responsible for breathing and circulation, respectively. The gastrointestinal system processes food, while the renal/urinary system removes waste from the body. Reproductive organs facilitate reproduction, while the endocrine system produces hormones that regulate bodily functions. Finally, the immune system defends against infectious agents.

Today was a rainy cozy day spent eating waffles, drinking hot beverages, and reading novels instead of as well as studying.

I’m not even preparing for USMLE but First Aid for Step 1 when paired with pre-made flashcards on the USMLE-RX app is such a great revision tool for Pre and Para-clinical subjects for even Post Graduate medical entrance exams in India! I think I owe my degree to SketchyMicro/Pharm, Pathoma, Osmosis and FA haha.

INTRODUCTORY POST! (long post ahead but please do give it a read)

I'm a third year med student from India who's also planning to start step 1 prep(have been for a while😶) I will be posting (hopefully) daily snippets of my study sessions and student life..

The inspiration to start a blog struck a few years ago, while I was watching the movie Julie and Julia.

I had started a studyblr soon after but I have been unable to post there anymore because I have recently come to the realisation that one of my close friends did not respect my wishes for privacy was keeping tabs of my blog without my knowledge.. I'm not sure since how long, but once I found out, I just completely lost interest in posting there..

To me, tumblr was a place to just be myself and get to know you wonderful people and a time to be away from my usual circle.. I'm an introvert myself and so having a space that I called my mine meant a great deal to me, and to know that it was violated by someone close really got to me..

So this is a fresh start, and it was a difficult decision, because that was a blog I really held close to my heart but I suppose all good things come to an end..

Few of my favorite studyblrs who have always inspired me to do better - @myhoneststudyblr @a-young-doctors-journey @ontrackmind @medemedemed @medicineinside @starrystvdy @studyblr @eintsein @lee-sarahh @emmastudies @medcury @studyquill @studylustre @studydiaryofamedstudent @academedical @academiix @galina @usmlestar

sucks so hard that the massive exam that i have to spend 6 weeks studying full-time for is called "step 1" because googling "studying for step 1 with adhd" only returns a few entries for actual step 1 studying tips before its just like "helping ur child with adhd study in ten easy steps" one million time

#syd squeaks #reddit has been somewhat helpful but i try to stay FAR AWAY from med school reddit as a general rule #yes its technically called USMLE but everyone calls it step 1 here

Some biostats information for the USMLE’s.  These notes I’ve made are the entire reason I don’t completely hate biostats anymore and I’ve been using them to teach others and revise stuff for my own exam.  Step 3 in two weeks.

More to come if anyone needs them.

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.

I was reading the test day rules for STEP 1 last night, and apparently no jewelry is allowed in the testing room except wedding rings. So, it's fine for you to cheat on and/or record medical licensing exams as long as you're married.

#what is this??? fucking Sunday School lmao??? #like good on NBME/USMLE for recognizing that people can have personally significant jewelry that they may not want to take off #1/10 on execution though lmao you can have personally significant jewelry and not be married lol #either jewelry is banned because it's a tool anyone can use to cheat on the exam or record test questions #(and if someone can use a ring to cheat on STEP 1 tbh they deserve those points lmao) #or rings are fine for anyone to have and should be allowed in #all or nothing baby #everyone should be allowed one ring or no one should be allowed any rings

I'm gonna try and do 80 UWorld questions today, and a CCS case. It's wishful thinking, but I'm starting to get STUPID stressed about Step 3. My friend took Day 1 yesterday and said there was a lot of peds and Step 1 shit on it. Guys, I'm dreading this test so much.
