Hi, I’m studying to pass my school’s NBME COMP (Comprehensive Basic Science Exam). Unfortunately, I failed my first attempt with a 59%. I need a 62% to pass, and I have about 3 months until my next attempt.
So far, I’ve used Melman PDFs and completed NBME forms 25, 27, and 28. I know the general advice is to use UWorld, which I’m planning to start.
My questions are:
What else should I be doing to study effectively over the next 3 months?
When reviewing incorrect UWorld questions, I want to use Anki to reinforce topics but I don’t like the AnKing deck. Is it okay to just make my own cards as I go through UWorld?
Lastly is there any recommendation on how to go through First Aid. Passively reading it wont, so any advice on this end would be appreciated.
Thanks!
