![]() Second pass avg: 95 (but I also repeated the qbank in a short span of time since it was two months of dedicated studying time, so some of it was just recall on the questions because I had just seen them 3-4 weeks ago during my first pass, others I actually learned to reason through so I felt like I was learning.) ![]() Uworld completely destroyed my confidence but YOU WILL get better near the end. Prior to that, I had to relearn a lot of things and study and I was getting 50s on the tests. *the end of my 2nd year and beginning of 3 year of residency is reflected in my step 3 first time fail and ITE score of first time avg was 65 BUT I only started scoring above 65 on the tests around 2/3 way into the qbank. Step 1 216, Step 2 242, step 3 first time fail, second time pass My journey is pretty unique in that I stalked this thread and didn't see anyone with ITE scores like mine Lastly, I recommend a formal board-prep course, I loved MedStudy as the videos were high yield and the text was easy to follow. I started out in the low to mid 60% range and before the test was scoring 80% correct on average. About 2 months before my test date I started doing Uworld questions and completed one pass through the bank. in my opinion, creating and studying my own flashcards was a game changer. As I completed questions I made anki flashcards. The second time around, I started studying with MKSAP17 questions about 6 months before my test date. Take a break, go within and have an honest conversation with yourself. If you didn't pass this year, please know that you are 100% CAPABLE and WILL overcome this exam. I want everyone to know that this exam does not define you as a person. Last year I failed on the first attempt due to poor preparation (I was unfocused and had only completed about 2/3 of my Uworld Qbank). After a grueling wait, so relieved to see that I passed! Nearly 200 points above the cutoff (score 556).
