‎Ali Javed- Step 1-240

Hello guys.
Few Tips for the preparation.
Follow UFAP protocol. Do start memorizing FA early in your preparation.
If you are weak in PHYSIOLOGY watch atleast CVS and Resp Dr. Kudrath videos (2010 kaplan). I did BRS physio questions in the last 10 days. That really helped me.
Do biostat uw review plus uw biostat. If you are in early preparation phase or weak in BS or Epi watch Dr. Daughtery's Behavioral plus epidemiology videos (2010 kaplan).
Watch NEUROANATOMY Dr. White videos (kaplan2014).
Anatomy was easily covered by UW plus FA. For pharma UW plus FA and watch Dr. Ramond ANS (2010 kaplan) for pharma.
For Genetics and molecular i watched Dr. Turco videos.
Sketch is Gold for MICRO. Do it multiple times. It wont take much time.
Bnb immuno videos are really good. Along with FA n Uw
Do PATHOMA really really good. That will help you big time. Listen to goljan lectures if you have time. I didnt have time for that. But some of my friend did. It really helped them
Do UW atleast twice.
For me Nbme 19 was most predictive. Got 241 about 7 days before exam.
Do Uw pictures before your exam like in last 10 days esp neuroanatomy pictures.
Revise FA as much as possible in last 2 months

Last thing. Exam is doable. If i can do it, anybody can do it. Just keep working hard and believe in yourself. You need a leap of faith at the end. Cheers!

My Voyage For Residency From PATIALA To PHILADELPHIA

MOTIVATION AND INTRODUCTION : The Unfortunate event of Medulloblastoma in my younger sister leading to permanent blindness despite successful surgery and chemo-radiation sparked in me a desire to become physician. Coming from a small city Dera Ghazi Khan, I entered in KEMU (former KEMC) in November 2004 and graduated in March 2010. Road to USA had never been easy. I was motivated by my parents and elder brother Adnan Khalique to reach the highest as I am the first one ever in my family who was going to become a physician and dreamed of training abroad as physician. But for me burning the boats was not an option so it had to be in this way in the form of many twists and turns till first step of success(Residency). I was looking for shortcut to settle early and was inclined toward going to Australia and that’s the reason I didn’t do any electives. After graduation I contacted my seniors in USA and Australia. I did Istikhaara for the first time in my life with a belief that Allah will...

Prep time – 4.5 months with 2 weeks gap so 4m effectively. I’m a recent grad. Step 1 score – 262, gave in mid sept last year. Resources - uw for ck (gold standard), did online 2.5 times. Cms all forms except family med. Nbme 4,6,7,8. Uptodate for reference. Uw step 3 for psych only. Kaplan patient safety notes. FA for step 1. Process – got step 1 score in mid October, celebrated for few days. Started ck prep in late October. Tried mtb 2 for cvs for a week, didn’t like it so started straightaway with online uw. My step 1 prep helped a lot in CK prep. Never did mtb again. Did uw first round till mid January. I also annotated new points to all uworld notes (whoever did the hard work of compiling it I send my best wishes and blessings to you, thanks a million). Revised the notes after 1st round....
