Wow Alf Mabrouk Assem! I am a US MD taking Step 2 in 3 weeks and this video was a helpful look into how to get a fantastic score. You will make a great physician inshAllah!
@@alrefaeiMDHi, Dr.Refaei I have one doubt about matching a program in US , every body of IMG residents are saying as I had matched IM, IM n IM n no one said as get Surgery. So why pls describe n can you make a vedio on this pls. Any how congratulations you, for got residency
I’ve recently passed my step 1, and I was looking for some overall guide for step 2. I’ve watched many videos and I must say, this is the best one. MashAllah great score. I am instantly so inspired by your humbleness. IA you’re going to be a great physician. May Allah be with you.
i am imagining when he will watch this video years later on…dont overthink then believe me this is so natural and amazing video plus ur english accent is awesome man👌🏻 MashaAllah congratulations 🎉
Congratulations 👏🏼 🎉 ♥️ ماشاء الله اللهم بارك...هذا خبر مفرح وسعيد وخر لنا كعرب ومسلمين ربنا يوفقك وينفع بك ويديم عليك التوفيق ويزيدك من فضله🩵😍❤️وعقبالنا يارب-طالب طب السنة الرابعة
I took many years studying for step 1 and 2 because of the kids and so many responsibilities/ job and my illness It was insane journey but I will never give up ❤
Congrats man 🎉 I love how articulate and thoughtful you are! Could you please give us an idea about your background before step 2 prep? Your basic science foundation, med school performance and step 1 prep.. Thanks for this amazing video!
Thank you! Sure thing! I was good at medical school and left with a solid background on topics. I think this helped me begin with 2 blocks and that’s why I mentioned finding your own pace. I did not do Step1 yet!
Hi Assem! Congratulations on such an amazing result and thanks for the advice. I wanted to ask for a bit of clarity on when you said you'd cover two 'blocks' a day on uworld. when you say two blocks, how many questions would that be within each block? and when you say blocks do you mean - is it the topic or subtopics?
Some curiosity. Such a good score absolutely reflect a good background medical knowledge in you school. Any one can do uworld and some flash card but starting point is much variable during your learning that will affect the required resources bypass many resources having a strong basic and also shortens your preparation making it couple months to get such as brilliant score in average 6 months
@@alrefaeiMD yes more on this point, pls, so for someone with relatively weak foundations or a couple years out of graduating should prepare differently? ie should build foundations first like watch videos Boards and Beyond or learn the information first or alongside Uworld & Anki? Thanks for your help!
MashaAllah congratulations Doctor!! Amazing achievement. May Allah grant you more amazing successes and achievements and make you an aid to humanity. I’m really interested to know your NBME assessment scores because my exam is very very soon and I want to see if it’s possible to get a similar score.
الف مبروووك يا دكتور انا في سنه تانيه طب حاليا ، طلع الي الفيديو بتاع حضرتك بجد ملهم جدااا ليا ❤❤ مفسي لما اكبر احقق الإنجاز ده تنصحني في ايه في فتره الجامعه ؟
شكرا على كلماتك اللطيفة، موضوع طويل جداً، بوعدك أعمل شيء مفصل أكثر لكن استثمار الوقت، اختيار صحبة حسنة، وتقليل دور الهاتف ووسائل التواصل الإجتماعي بحياتك.
Hello thanks for the great video! Can you tel how you make the Anki cards from your incorrects? Like did you just copy the question entirely or did you make a card about the concept?
الف مبروم يا دكتور ما شاء الله علي اصرارك وعزيمتك عندي طلب ممكن توضح طريقة عمل انكي كارد للاسئلة اللي بتحلي غلط اشكرك علي الفيديو فادني كتير مع اني لسه بدرس ستيب ١
Alf Mabrook Dr Assem MashAllah that is a great score :) . Wish you all the best on your journey to the US. So you don't advise making Anki cards from the first read?
Mashallah Assem, amazing score! Thank you for the tips. Just wanted to ask you what was your main source of studying the content. Besides making your own anki cards, were you studying the systems from Anking? Or did you only solve questions and study their explanations?
Thank you for asking. UW is the main source of learning. There is not a piece of information in your exam that would not be present somewhere in UW. Just focus on it and do not overcomplicate yourself with resources.
First of all congratulations on your GOAT score!!! I want to have a opinion from your side, Ill be giving my real deal in a few months. And plz response to this comment kindly. I have made a anki deck that has summarized uworld qs on front and explanations on back. almost 4500 cards. After my first pass im doing it for 2.5 months, 60 anki has been completed and im doing it system wise. Havent given a assessment yet. What I want to ask is that i keep on forgetting tables and explanations from topics I have read a month back. How should I approach my third read after finishing anki (almost a second pass of uworld). Thanks alot!!!!
Hi there, Thank you for your words. This is really fantastic. You are doing a great job. Continue what you are doing and start doing assessments. You will not remember everything even after a month so the goal is not to memorize everything. See how your assessment works and fill the deficits after.
Congratulations Dr. Which anki cards would you recommend? How many cards did you have in total? Also what nbmes and cms forms do you recommend going through, and how many passes for each? Thanks
Hello Asem, I hope you're doing well. I have another question for you! 😊 I recently started preparing for Step 2 and began using UWorld from scratch, and I just can't retain information without using Anki. I've tried both a pre-made deck and creating my own deck (focusing on my wrong answers and things I don't know). I found making my own cards to be more effective, but it takes more time. Do you recommend continuing with this approach? Is it sustainable in the long term, or should I stick to the pre-made decks? Thank you so much Asem
Hi, Great question and study approach. You should try to not make Anki kill your UW time. Try using pre-made decks to get material on your mistakes. Like you made a mistake on tularemia, search it in the browse feature of anki, and transfer it from the pre-made deck to yours. I will published a detailed video tomorrow on my anki use.
@@alrefaeiMD Got it, that makes sense. Using the search and unsuspend method sounds like a smart move. One last question for the next video. Which deck would you recommend: Janki, Tzanki, Ankingv11, or Anking V12? Thanks a lot for your effort. I'll be eagerly awaiting your next video.
Congratulations, I just passed step 1 and your video is gold and so helpful to me ,thank you so much. What is your advice to improve English speaking and accent. (Any good app?)
Congratulations. Your feedback is most appreciated. For me, I watch a lot of videos in English and tended to have friends who use English as their main language, those combined helped me improve my language.
Hey, congratulations on the exceptional score! I heard the ethics section has gotten a lot tougher recently, was ethics in the final exam doable with Uworld alone?
It was hard. Not UW-alike, but I argue that you should not over-prepare because I do not think that helps either. Repeat ethics from UW in your last week
Congratulation mashaaalah. Can you tell you resources for proration for us lie step1. And also resources in each subject during preparation of medical school that you you recommended to build strong basis videos books platforms question resources. We wait for you to matching inshaallah الف مبروك يا دكتور مشرف العرب ما شاء الله
Hello! Thank you for the great advice. I have a question and a request. My question is how important is the knowledge you gain from step 1 and how much does it contribute to your score on step 2? since step 1 is pass/fail, I am struggling to plan the right amount of time and the amount of attention to detail I should give it. Should I take step 1 as soon as I am able to pass or should I make sure I can score a high grade in step 1 before moving on to step 2 if I want a high score for step 2? My request is - could you please make a video on how to start with research from scratch? for a person who has never done any research or who knows nothing about it and doesn't know where to start. Thank you in advance Assem!
Hi there! I actually did not do step1 and was warned by many that this will be detrimental to my Step2, and it was not. You do not need either one to do the other. It would make some parts of your experience easier but it is not necessary. It depends on your situation and current stage. If you are an early year medical student you might focus on getting rid of Step1 first, while if you had an already good clinical exposure, Step2 might be your most reasonable target. I will also be posting more content on research soon. It is completely for beginners so tune in!
Hello again doctor Al refaei I have a question about my flash cards! As you said , i made flash card with my mistakes in my tests... now i 60 days left to my exam and about 3000 flash card! . I currently have about an hour and a half a day to review flashcards. How can I manage to review all the flashcards I’ve made? I’ve fallen behind on all my flashcards, and a lot of daily flashcards remain unread. I can only review the old ones, leaving no time to go through the new ones. What should I do? .
This is absolutely fine and 60 days is a very good time. Keep doing what you are doing and you will find it easier to cover new cards with time. You will become efficient and the reviews number will become less.
I did write my question notes (as described in a separate video on how to answer Uw questions). I didn’t watch any videos. Just learnt from UW explanations.
Hello, its absolutely new to hear someone repeating UW 3-4 times. Would you mind sharing how didnyou make notes out of it ? And how did you revise them regularly ?
Congrats Doc! Anking consists of STEP1 Deck and STEP2 Deck, which one did you do? If you did STEP 2 Deck, how many total cards did it have? please elaborate...
All my congraduations Doctor ! Thank you a lot for all the sharing! Questions for you, Doctor: how much time/hours did you spend on anki? and how many cards/day? if the number of review cards exceeds like 700, should i suspend the old one? how did you use uworld (timed, tutorial ect, multiple subjects)? what is the ideal time to spend on the preparation of step 1 ?
Thank you! So i spent maybe 2 hours per day on Anki, the number of cards varied. On most days I didn’t achieve the perfect zero. I never suspended old cards. My uworld was always in tutored mode. And there is no ideal time for everyone, it really depends on your baseline knowledge and current situation.
283 is utter insanity!! Congratulations U will probably have an unbroken record for years to come!!

Wow congratulations
Thank you!
Hello Asem,
I hope you're doing well. I have another question for you! 😊
I recently started preparing for Step 2 and began using UWorld from scratch, and I just can't retain information without using Anki. I've tried both a pre-made deck and creating my own deck (focusing on my wrong answers and things I don't know). I found making my own cards to be more effective, but it takes more time.
Do you recommend continuing with this approach? Is it sustainable in the long term, or should I stick to the pre-made decks?
Thank you so much Asem
Hi,
Great question and study approach. You should try to not make Anki kill your UW time. Try using pre-made decks to get material on your mistakes. Like you made a mistake on tularemia, search it in the browse feature of anki, and transfer it from the pre-made deck to yours. I will published a detailed video tomorrow on my anki use.
@@alrefaeiMD
Got it, that makes sense. Using the search and unsuspend method sounds like a smart move.
One last question for the next video. Which deck would you recommend: Janki, Tzanki, Ankingv11, or Anking V12?
Thanks a lot for your effort. I'll be eagerly awaiting your next video.
Congratulations, I just passed step 1 and
your video is gold and so helpful to me ,thank you so much.
What is your advice to improve English speaking and accent. (Any good app?)
Congratulations. Your feedback is most appreciated.
For me, I watch a lot of videos in English and tended to have friends who use English as their main language, those combined helped me improve my language.
No app suggestion but definitely you can attempt.
Hey, congratulations on the exceptional score! I heard the ethics section has gotten a lot tougher recently, was ethics in the final exam doable with Uworld alone?
It was hard. Not UW-alike, but I argue that you should not over-prepare because I do not think that helps either. Repeat ethics from UW in your last week
Congratulations on your amazing score!! Can you please share what did you use to prepare for research, ethics, quality improvement and drug ads?
I relied on UW only. I do not think adding more resources correlate with better performance on exam day.
Which book to use for neuroanatomy? Also did u use kaplan medical
For Step2, i did not revise neuroanatomy and relied on the information in UW. For Step1, you can rely on the material in the FA book.
@alrefaeiMD which book did u use for anatomy? Any additional Resources for anatomy that can help w usmle scores?
@alrefaeiMD i wanna match into surgery how can i do that
Congratulations doctor! Can you go over your schedule exactly? Thank you😄
Thank you! I will share it soon.

Hello again doctor Al refaei
I have a question about my flash cards!
As you said , i made flash card with my mistakes in my tests... now i 60 days left to my exam and about 3000 flash card! .
I currently have about an hour and a half a day to review flashcards.
How can I manage to review all the flashcards I’ve made?
I’ve fallen behind on all my flashcards, and a lot of daily flashcards remain unread. I can only review the old ones, leaving no time to go through the new ones.
What should I do?
.
This is absolutely fine and 60 days is a very good time. Keep doing what you are doing and you will find it easier to cover new cards with time. You will become efficient and the reviews number will become less.
@alrefaeiMD thank you so much 💓
Congrats
Thank you!
Thank you for this informative video, can you please share the Anki link that you've used in both Step 1&2
I shared them in the description of another video about anki.
Mabruk MashaAllah
Thank you so much
Did u write notes for the 2 blocks / day? Or u depended on anki
Also how did u learn the info did u watch any videos…?
I did write my question notes (as described in a separate video on how to answer Uw questions).
I didn’t watch any videos. Just learnt from UW explanations.
Hello, its absolutely new to hear someone repeating UW 3-4 times. Would you mind sharing how didnyou make notes out of it ? And how did you revise them regularly ?
Hi, I did do that in a recent video.
Hi! Thank you and congratulations on your score. Do you prefer a 3rd round of uworld or amboss qbank? Please reply, I’m on a time crunch, thank you 🙏
Thank you for your comment! Always UW. Best of luck.
Congrats Doc! Anking consists of STEP1 Deck and STEP2 Deck, which one did you do? If you did STEP 2 Deck, how many total cards did it have? please elaborate...
Thank you for your words. I did STEP2 deck. It was around 9K to 10K cards.
Doctor what about biostatistics questions and behavioral any tips
Just UW. I think it is sufficient and if something in the exam is weird you will probably not find it in other resources as well.
All my congraduations Doctor ! Thank you a lot for all the sharing!
Questions for you, Doctor: how much time/hours did you spend on anki? and how many cards/day? if the number of review cards exceeds like 700, should i suspend the old one? how did you use uworld (timed, tutorial ect, multiple subjects)? what is the ideal time to spend on the preparation of step 1 ?
Thank you!
So i spent maybe 2 hours per day on Anki, the number of cards varied. On most days I didn’t achieve the perfect zero. I never suspended old cards. My uworld was always in tutored mode. And there is no ideal time for everyone, it really depends on your baseline knowledge and current situation.
Thank you Doctor ! Alf mabrouk ^^.
Thank you! 😃
Was your studying only through uworld? You didn't try studying materials, videos, etc. before jumping into doing blocks?
Only UWORLD and ANKI. Explanations are enough for the exam. However, if I didn’t understand something or felt a gap, I would google it.
فخر ماشاء الله عليك دكتور
Thank you!
Where did you get the anking deck resources. Would be very helpful if you replied. Thank you for the advice!
There are available on Ankihub. I will post a detailed anki guide from A to Z tomorrow!
thankyou assem , I would ask about writing notes ? is it important or just I need to read the explanation?
I have made a video about how to solve UW questions and did include within it how I take question notes.
Hello
Will you make a video about your step 1 experience?
I didn’t take it but will make about resources.
