Try BRS PATH for path
Physio videos are good with lecture notes,if u really dont like it,then do BRS PHYSIO[you really need to know all the basics in physio]
DECKS ARE MADE FROM OLD ASDA Q BANKS
its only for revision,do asda q banks or decks
Immunology do the lecture notes chapter 1-10 and do complement in detail

Members don't see this ad :)
hi era!!
I read ur post here and find out ...u r also doing Achland dvds?
I wanna knw do we have to do all of them or just the Head,neck,brain and internal organs....do u ahve any idea abt upper and lower extremeties and trunk?





hi,red
i read all ur threads,very helpful
but i was wondering about pathology?
can u pls give us all a brief idea for pathology
how we can proceed in pathology lectures?cos these r vast,
do we have to read all the chapters from usmle lecture notes?
and wat about patho videos,do we have to listen all?
pls help us
i would apprecite ur help
 
Hey can u plz tell that there are questions at the end of usmle lectures notes after every ch, so are they important....especially what abt graph questions?? do graph questions and mathematical q comes in nbde or they r just usmle questions??

plz ans soon.

Physiology Usml videos and lecture notes
Day 1
Chapter 1 is very important,red cell in saline ,glucose ,swells or shrinks
is a most common question,what happens to rbc in dehygration,during exercise
Chapter 2 is cell mechanics i know its a drag,but understanding this makes mechanics of cardiac cell,skeletal, smooth muscle easy.Get your basics right,there is always a question in the exam on muscle skeletal muscle & ca channels in contraction,we really have to know this
All this takes 4 hrs
Time for respiration ,i know the basics get repeated but you really have to know about pulmonary mechanics,hypoxia,respiratory distress,surfactant, the lectures take 3 hours to complte
Make your notes ,so you can make revision easy,you need to revise every other day ,your own hand written lecture notes are your bible for this.
Cardio vascular system is the best in the videos,i know it takes another 4 hours but in 2 days ,You can cover all this and excretory system.

CardioVascular system
Mean electrical axis of the heart ,anyone ??it is the most commonest question these days,it is in the lecture notes,though not discussed in the video.

Hey can u plz tell that there are questions at the end of usmle lectures notes after every ch, so are they important....especially what abt graph questions?? do graph questions and mathematical q comes in nbde or they r just usmle questions??

plz ans soon.
if you are a doctor taking USMLE,it is important.If you are a dentist it is NBDE you take,which measures your basic knowledge about medical sciences,not treatment of medical disorders it is NOT.
 
This thread is abt helping those who dont know wre to start
not abt remembered ques
this is abt study material and what to study
where to start,what schools to target,and how TO WIN
hi..
well..
no wonder..
u r doin a great job.
can u please help me with my letters of recommendation??
 
I have a doubt which needs to be cleared before I take the xam so tht I can set an aim ...
if some one gets a raw score of 80/100 in any subject, does tht mean 80 questions right?
are all the questions equally marked?
i have heard tht marking a simple question wrong make you loose more marks?
is that the case?
on what basis are the raw scores given for each subject?
 
hi,red
can u pls tell me ..1thing
i got my evaluation done from ece,and i appeared for ndebpart1 also
now i m retaking it but u know by mistake my transcript was not made properly by my college,i mean there were lot of mistakes in it,so i did contact my college so they made again with corrections in it..............so do u think i have get my evalution done again ?

hi era
You should get a re evaluation,done.
Your Gpa will increase,thats good in the long run
 
pls guide me.....

thanks for ur reply red,
so do u think i should go for course by course or general evaluation????

and 1 thing more, can u pls tell me about lipoprotein metabolism in usmle lectures,do we need to do in detail as given in usmle ?pls guide me.....
Yes Era. You should do it in detail. Physiology and Biochemistry are the ones which throw the most surprises and you should do them in as much detail as possible.

Course by course is needed by the university when you apply
The usml videos make biochem so easy ,so just do it
Good Luck

My friend who has joined the kaplan institute tells me the nbde videos are condensed videos 10 hrs per subject,taught by dentists,Imagine biochemistry taught by dentists,WASTE of time
I put her onto Usmle videos and Lecture notes,she is back on track,She likes the way Usml videos function from the basic.
People always ask me that"Are not usml portions too much",MY answer is always NO,look at the syallabus,study that completely,kaplan does not set nbde part 1 exam papers ,ITS JUST a tutorial,How we make use,what we study is up to us.

Hi dear,
Congrajulation for your success! Wowwwww, BOSTON:clap:. Wish you the best.
I'm planning to study for part 1. What are you advices? More over, how much time do I need to study? I'm not recently graduated, so I have problems in basic sciences:scared: and really worried!
 
Just as a general reminder that discussion of questions appearing on the NBDE is not permitted. The responses here are getting way too detailed. Speaking in general terms about given topics is fine. Focusing on key facts that are important is not permitted. The last thread created about part 1 was closed because of this. Do not make me close this one too.
 
hi,can u plz tell me that how much times its takes for the preparation for NBDE1??how much time in a day[??
