Hello and Happy New Year,
For all those that had a significant time commitment (research, fellowship, service project, etc) that took up a lot of time during the day (4-8 hours+) and still managed to ace Step 2 CK, how did you prepare for the exam schedule-wise? I can imagine you will need more than the often recommended 6-8 weeks but maybe I'm wrong. I would REALLY appreciate a wide range of experiences and, if you're comfortable, sharing how your scores progressed from Step 1 to NBMEs and UWSAs to Step 2 CK. Feel free to include resources as well though I'm pretty set on what I'm using (UW, FA, NBMEs with Sketchy and Goljan as supplements). Trying to be more efficient and prioritize questions over "making sure I look at everything" like in Step 1 prep.
