Done with step 2CK

Wolverine0 · #1 07-25-2008, 08:03 AM

Last saturday did step 2 ck,

almost all question on the test have the same concept that usmle world, that makes me felt a not hard test. the first 6 blocks was "easy", 7th block was the harder and the last one was not as hard as 7. I had a lot of question similar than UW and others similar to NBME.
I studied Kaplan notes twice, read UW 2 times, and nbme first 3 blocks.
drjiggy notes(great for last minute review) and questions tested( it worth cause i had 3 question on my test) got it from forums.
Breaks was taked as follow 3-2-2-1.

I think that all that questions are made to connect medical concept, and UW prepare you for that very well. if you memorize thats good only for a few questions.

I had a lot of question of OBGY, PEDS, I.M. PSYCH, very few of epidemilogy, ethics, and surgery

topics strongly tested:

LYME DZ.
HIV
PNEUMONIA
SICKLE CELL
MIOC-INFARCT
CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE
CRUP
CO INTOXICATION
DIABETES AND COMPLICATIONS
A LOT OF MURMURS, AND HEART MALFORMATIONS,
RF, STENOSIS MITRAL AND AORTIC CALCIFIATION, TOF.
AUDIO OF CIV AND AORTIC STENOSIS.
ENDOCARDITIS SEC. TO DRUGS.
A LOT OF QUESTION ABOUT ABDOMINAL PAIN (ADULT AND CHILD)
-obstruction
- intusuception
-pancreatitis
- apendicitis
- colecystitis
-abdominal aorta rupture
-perforation
ectopic and tubaric absces several question

Agree with you, almost all qns are based on similar concept like UW, Nbme!

I revised kaplan well, but did UW only once, but read my UW notes before the day of exam, Took NBME form 3 & 2 (but didn't got the score i wish though)
