By the end of 2nd month, u should finish 1/2 of qbank. then do NBME form 2. If you got 500 or above, u are ready to take the exam in one month and aim for 90s. In the last month, focus on FA and eak area in kaplan note. I hope u like this approach. Good luck 0 - ArchivalUser - 08-18-2004 Doc hi anu iam img from india,just entered 2months ago and planning to take kaplan center preparation study is it ok what is NBME FORM IAND 2 i want to discuss the stuffs wanna share 0 - ArchivalUser - 08-18-2004 cue anu, I spent about two and half month, average if 7 hours per day, and I studied FA and step up plus qbank. I passed with a 75 but I believe the exam was much harder than the qbank. You might get an easier version. The point is, 3 months should be enough as long as it's solid. |
