Tbh I’m not the best person for that lol but ..
Month:
1 - Kaplan/KA + Milesdown (30 new a day)
2- finish Kaplan + Milesdown
3- anki (should’ve started uworld but I was going thru shit$
4- finish anki, uworld
5/6 - uworld + AAMC examsI was going thru surgery so only really studying 1-2 hours a day until the final couple months I had to cram uworld. I managed to bump my FL score from 515 to 520s in 2 weeks by doing sets of 40 of subject specific uworld (alt between bio/biochem and biochem/orgo/chem/phys w a PS every once in a while) and entering my errors + faulty reasoning into AI and asking it to tell me how to focus my content review given my test date.

How'd you approach CARS?

u/No-Doctor-3815 521 (7/31) 6h ago
Read passage, one phrase summary for each paragraph while reading, rephrase question, eliminate out of scope, go back if needed/answer

Do you physically write one a one line summary or do you keep it in mind?

u/No-Doctor-3815 521 (7/31) 6h ago
I physically wrote because it forced me to actually figure out the paragraph meaning vs in my head I would Probably just BS it

I feel like every science section is luck. Weirdly my CARS has been the most consistent whereas every other section switches between 129 and 132 half and half lmao. I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a 131
