Dear Overcomer11,
your score is not bad( to get dissappointed, u are just 5-10marks away from clearing this exam with decent percentile, this score is just not good enough to pass this exam ( exam getting tough each year). Some people attempt and they wont even get close to 70, but since u got 73, u just need to GO OVER UR CONCEPTS, underestimating this exam costs us, give the respect this exam needs, STUDY HARD. You can do it this time.
Scoring 73% is not that easy, i would say, continue with ur preparation, DONT STOP UNTIL U REVIEW FA,GOLJAN, sincerely DO UW and LEARN ALL CONCEPTS, take NBME , assess urself,
when u get 560 and above in ur NBME scores, THEN TAKE EXAM. until then dont consider applying for exam, just keep working hard to reach that scores, u can do it.
GL,

I am old graduate too and really need guidance and encouragement. Would really like to talk to people that are in the same boat. I live in Philadelphia. My email address is ricot02.
I just about to finish Kaplan books first reading except for pathology. Can you give me a plan for pathology? And How long it can take to complete UWORLD?
Thanks for your advice
