should I postpone...? plz help... - j990979 - ArchivalUser - 10-21-2009

I started studying for step 3 2 weeks ago.
I have 10 days left till the exam
I have done almost 50% of UW and am getting 69% overall

I have not yet done CCS. well I have done 7 cases so far.

I am getting worried.
I am going to do CCS for 4days. hope to finish it in 4 days.
I mean I need to! I have no time....

Do you think I can pass the exam?
I really need some input
I have to change my flight and hotel if I were to postpone...
plz help...

Is UW 69% safe to take the exam?

I'm doing timed, unused mode...
plz advise...

69% is not bad ata ll.

Do NMBE and UWA.

Are you in residency? Step 1 and Step 2 -when and if you don't mind, your scores.

not in residency
applying this year....

It's amazing how quickly one forgets what has been memorized 2 months ago..
I took CK in July...

CCS is what I'm worried about the most...
well.. I'm worried about MCQ too....

I don;t think I'mm have time to do NBME or UWA
well..if you have to choose one, which one do u recommend??
NBME or UWA?

and for NBME which form?? (I'm not sure how many forms there are for step3)


0 - ArchivalUser - 10-21-2009

for step 3 only one form.

did you look on the NMBE q posted on the forum?


0 - ArchivalUser - 10-21-2009

no I haven't...

what do you suggest...?
Do you think doing the rest of UW (50% left) is better or NBME?


0 - ArchivalUser - 10-21-2009

do NMBE tomorrw, UWA the next day if you can.
do you need step 3 for visa?


0 - ArchivalUser - 10-21-2009

yes.. for H1b
but I don;t really mind getting a J1

I'm thinking 'why have I even scheduled for step3 if I'm OK with J1'
--.--

anyways, 69% is OK? right.?

do at least NMBE test.
