      To do this i would usually go through my NBME self assessment analysis. It’ll say whether you’re doing poorer than most students in a certain area, the same as them, or better. So pay more attention in what you’re underperforming in. I hope this helps💕

    Hi Doctor ... when do you recommend registering for the exam , after finishing 80% of UW! Thanks

    • @oreofeoladapo
      @oreofeoladapo  7 місяців тому

      If you’re not at a school that has time constraints for when to take it, it honestly depends on how you’re doing on NBME’s in your opinion. If you’re not currently passing, i’d give myself at least 1-1.5 months to work towards a passing score. But the registration process can take a while in itself. I registered before i even started dedicated studying and worked towards my test date.

You're right there is so many study materials out there, but if you don't know how to study and memorize - how do you know which resource(s) are best before test time or dedicated study time.

For the High Yield images videos, it’s actually Dirty Medicine (another great UA-cam channel) I watched. Here’s a link to that playlist ua-cam.com/play/PL5rTEahBdxV54cZpVjhJKqOL6huEMW4hY.html
