just wanted to give a quick introduction. im an international medical student preparing for step 1. i hope to take the exam in october of this year. I started studying almost two months ago from scratch (basically), and doing my first pass of FA. I have done biochem, immune, micro so far. Anyways, after each section i have been doing usmle RX questions. I started this 'system' after completing micro. After my first pass of FA i have been only getting 25%-30% of the questions right in the micro section. I am willing to put in the extra time but I am not sure where to start. Is this normal for first pass of FA. micro i know is a dense subject, but i would like to do better. Must i do flash cards, videos, or something else? Any idea helps. I know once i get into the swing of things i will get better. Im just really discouraged about my progress. at this rate ill end up taking step 1 in two years. Please someone share their similar experiences or advice. anything helps
