hi, just here to help. Listen, if your scores are not increasing, your strategy has to change. Reading and re-reading and re-reading the material over and over again in not always helpful. A friend of mine wrote the exam and before he wrote it he used pretest internal medicine (for step 1) He had already done q bank, first aid and kaplan and wanted more questions. they are fantastic. When you do questions, there is a correct way to do them. Getting the questions correct is not the point. Why is it right, whyare the other questions wrong, what would make them right? What else so I know about this disease - can you tell me the treatment, MOA, side effects, diagnosis, tests I would order, physical findings etc? If you aren't doing this for every question you try, maybe you should change strategies. just a thought

maybe you are as well prepared as you will ever be and need to take the exam. 9 months is a long time to keep studying. Either you have not been studying effectively or you have studied enough. Either way I think you should set yourself a target and sit the exam in next month or two. By the way what kind of scores are you referring to?
