dear Anatolyk
Thank you so much for ur advice throughout this forum, Iam an IMG with step 1 228, ck-216, cs pass all in first attempt but has step 3 one fail attempt.
Iam trying for the second attempt this time, but when i took NBME i only got 300!!!. so i donot want to take a chance this time too.
i find the step 3 questions very tricky , even i feel knw the answers to the big questions when i read thru the questions , at the end they will ask a whole different question - like management of a complication of a drug etc.
i am in the last stage of Kaplan now , average score 50 -55%. took UW last time but didnot finish it.
Do you think getting a different online qbank like USMLE preview is a good idea?
please advice me. and i believe i will concerntrate on step 3 before applying for residency , becuase i need visa sponsor.
but i am becoming more than 5 years after this.
thank you
