New Anki Deck Experience

Hi everyone! I think I reinvented a new Anki deck experience in 2026 to help people pass STEP for actual content review and skipping the superficial flashcard 1st order experience. Message me if you want to know more! I can help you pass one Anki deck at a time! Let’s step up in 2026!

From feeling overwhelmed by CBSE to the "P" on Step 1: My journey + offering a hand to those still in the thick of it.

I remember the exact moment I realized my CBSE scores weren’t where they needed to be. Between the density of the material and the sheer mental fatigue of Step 1 that is make or break as an IMG, there were weeks where I didn't think I'd see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I recently found out I passed Step 1, and looking back, the "click" didn't come from doing more questions, but it came from changing how I integrated the info. I moved soon to the East Coast to start my clinicals, and while life is busy, I realized how much I actually enjoy breaking down these concepts now that the pressure of the exam itself is off.

If you are currently struggling with CBSE prep or feeling stuck in a score plateau for Step, I’d love to help you navigate it. I’m looking to take on a few students to help with content review, schedule building, or just high-yield strategy sessions.

I’ve been where you are and know how isolating this process feels as this was the most isolated I ever felt thus far in this life. If you want to chat about how I can help you get over the hump, send me a DM and let’s talk details.

Hi! Anyone stressed if they failed? I passed CBSE with a 73 and took new free 120 before exam and got a 80%. I walked out the exam feeling like I failed. I only remember about 70 questions and the rest I have no clue. The scariest thing is not remembering what I put and felt so brain fogged during exam. The exam was on low yield topics that were not portrayed on nbmes or free 120 for my version. Do you think I passed? I can’t even enjoy the present right now

Did anyone find this exam to question your entire 3-5 month study journey? I feel like I failed and scored 70s on NBME 25-33 and with a CBSE >72 and free120 of a 77. I feel so defeated. Flagged majority of the exam and made simple mistakes. I don’t know how to sit with this feeling knowing I walked out feeling like I have to reconsider my entire career over again. I really hope I passed. Trusted the 98% chance of passing after my cbse but I feel like I failed genuinely. Does anyone feel this way?
