hi bilal1, i don't know if I;m the best person to give advice, I feel I was lucky to get 99 and that i don't know that much... 53% in UW is not bad, keep reading the explanations for the qs you get wrong and then go over those qs again to make sure you understood them. Also go back to the books if you feel you need to. have you taken an NBME yet? That would give you a more accurate assessment of how you're doing. UW is not a good predictor of your exam score.

Hi Rei,
Good congratulation with such wonderful scores! I hope that you will get the same scores in

all USMLE exams. I was happy and encouraged to read your experience. Your responses are

reflecting such a nice and kind personality, as well as ,your determination and hard work.

Thank you for your time and may God blesses you and your family.

thankyou rei, i am doing the same thing but now ia m becoming tired of this exam b/c i have also 3 kids .

Bilal: I was tired too, that's why I decided to take it anyway after having a passing score in NBME. I didn't want 99, I just wanted to pass, and hoped to get over 90. Take an NBME, see where you stand, and go for it! I found that the more I postponed it, the more I kept forgetting and I felt that postponing wasn't really helping me. If you can, take some time off right before the exam and do some intensive studying then.

Dear,
Great Success. I am going to be study for USMLE. Except Kaplan what text should I read . Like Guyton, Ganong for Physiology, Harper, Lippincott Biochemistry or any others text book.
Because I feel some kind of problem by reading Kaplan about clear conceptions.
Pls advice me.
With Regards.
