No NBMEs left, how do I assess?

[camng11]

I'm a third year d.o. student planning to take step 1 in 2 months. How do I assess where Im at in terms of scores if I did all the NBMEs/UWSA's/free 120 and Uworld questions during dedicated from last summer? I remember some but not all the questions when I'm redoing Uworld questions.

Awesome yo.

1. Learn the topics/diseases/concept....... follow up with application.

1a: How would Disease A differ from Disease B?

Example: Kawasaki Disease vs Scarlet fever? Both will have Sore throat, but Scarlet will have exudate on the post-oropharynx. Both will have Cervical Lymphadenopathy, but Kawasaki will have 1 single Cervical Lymphadenopathy.​

1b: How would this disease present?

Example 1:Sickle cell Disease --> Usually an African American Kid, with prior history of admission treated with analgesics.
Example 2: Sarcoidosis --> Usually African American woman (Strongest Risk factor is her ethnicity) with perihilar adenopathy + systemic symptoms / High CD4+/CD8+ [BAL]​

2. Go over your weaknesses.
3. Drugs --> Know the MOA, indications and contraindications (high yield for pharm)

2a: n = 1; SketchyPharm didn't help as much as I thought​

3. Know the pathophysiology for all of the diseases. UWORLD did a good job on this, followed up with Pathoma.

3a. Read Giojan, high-yield to fill in the small gaps/details [if you have the time of Course]​

4. KNOW YOUR AGE-RELATED CHANGES

4a: First Aid covers it
4b: Giojan has a chart [Thumbs up]​

5. Review Review Review.......


If you like, you can message me and I can send you all of my charts I made. Here is a preview of one.
