Hi drbiaseven86 - UW 75% in first reading and Fred 82% are pretty good. I do not know about Kaplan text books, are they the same as Kaplan Lecture Notes?. Anyway I think you are using the best sources.Do not worry so much, you have already survived 2 USMLE steps very good )))). About severe panic attack during step 1, I understand you very well, same here. I missed 4 last questions in 2 firs blocks during my Step1, then realized it on block 3 and even missed more. So panic is our worst enemy. Last 2 days I did not study hard, 3-4 hours only.I recommend you to continue UW, your weak points, cardio like MI, valve diseases, some EKGs, development milestones, dementia types, infect. diseases; you know better what you need.
After step 1 and CS I am sure you are ready for CK. Do not press yourself too much, 3-4 months study is OK for many people. I studied 4,5 months 7-7,5 hours per day average but here was a big language issue.Do not forget to eview FRED 1-2 days before your exam. Best of luck!!! spartan10- Thank you very much and good luck!

Hi ckgl- Thank you. I think kaplan q book and kaplan online exams are absolutely different and one would not bias another. I got 53%/196 questions correct on Kaplan QB simulation exam
2 months before my real exam. About Kaplan Q bank itself, I did it only once, finished with 62% ques. correct. I think it is underestimates real scores.Keep reading Kaplan LN. What about UW QB? I think it is the best.Good luck!!

Hi @messionimpossible - I did all NMBEs online and have no idea how many % questions I got correct for NMBE 1,2, 3.
I can tell you only for NMBE 4, because it has a feedback.I got 300/183, 68% questions correct (got 125 questions correct from 184 given). Mission is possible, believe me )). Best of luck!!!

Congrats! I think you have enough language to qualify for a doctor. Speak like you have just written and you will be alright. Good luck.
