@ paprika - thanks dude

@chandana
thanks
I didnt use any dvds......i used only mtb3 which i have to keep for step3.....
Its better u start with mtb2 and then mtb3 and UW....revise them and then repeat....take nbme and decide if u need more prep

@ dj9
thank u
I did both girl and UW notes.....I felt the girl notes is very disorganised and has lot of spelling mistakes and is also incomplete...
UW notes is more organised and i found no mistakes in it....UW notes is always better.

dont worry reg nbme scores.....uwsa is more reliable predictor....just keep reading and revise all ques....also do the usmle.org sample test...helps in practice....GL

@thaaj
I scored around 50-60% first time....then after that i only did offline.....
Yes MTB2 is worth a shot....cover both mtb2 and 3
time management - what i tried was i try to do one qs per minute.....if i lag....i try not to lag for more than 5 min at the end of the block...that is if i notice that i am lagging by around 3-4 qs then i try to do the next 2-3 qs more quickly and then continue....this way i atleast have 10 min at the end..GL

@dasshona
I read the 2008 version.....I dont there is any difference bet the latest evrsions......theyr all same....just stick to what u have....

@skybluez
I got 2 media qs///heart sounds...one froms peds and other adult.....though i heard heart sounds from random sources before exam...i cudnt figure out in the real exam coz of the stress and taking time hearing all four chest areas....
i just picked whatever seemed most posible acc to ques....
also take a look at EKGs....i got 4-5 of thhem...like 12 lead ecgs....they were difficult...just guessed 2 of them

@mdduro83
I used the UW notes which dosent have a name....some call it ranksh notes....its like 13 files....i cant attach in email....and if i share my skype id...i will be bombarded with requests....so sharing quite not posible...sorry...

@dr.nida
