Step 1 Biggest mistakes,

1- Intended to memorize every single page On kaplan Books, so entered in to an endless circuit of memorizing and forgetting. (studied the pharma books nearly 5 times) i could easily avoid that if started first aid with Questions at earlier time. at least directly after first reading.

2- Did nearly a thousand of Pointless Irrelevant MCQs, i gathered alot of valuable information, however not relevant to exam.further more had no time to memorize it, at the end found very limited to time for Kaplan Q banks so missed nearly 400 questions.SO i recomment to strict to (Kaplan-World) only.

3- Pathology for every body talking about its importance for exam i studied Goljan 500 page which is typical to his Rapid Review Book of pathology. It was a good preparation for pathology Board exam but not for step 1 because i lost half of my stamina just on that , spent LOOOOOng time memrizing countless of pages  got overwhelmed by thousands of facts Yell. My suggestion is Strict to GOljan Audio+Transcript ( 130 page sheet) Or kaplan book. it is enough . becuase First aid+Banks will cover what is left.

4-Microbiology from Kaplan, again spend alot of time studying solid facts of Microbiology on Kaplan Book…..at the end of my preparation i realized how First aid is enough on microbiology. so i recommend to not read kaplan micro more than once…..

5-Behavioural Science, i ignored that subject during my preparation and studied it the last. i founded it very easy however realized that mistakes on that subject are not permissible it was my weakest perfromance in my exam score.
