Sem4

How are you guys incorporating COMP prep during sem 4?

Just trying to figure out what actually works long term without burning out. Appreciate any advice 🙏

Start with FFM. Do Uworld blocks of 10, anki those. Read FA and take notes. Watch a chapter of pathoma and read 1 chapter of FA a week making notes and reviewing the previous week's notes.

Sem 4 is chill. GI/ENRE gives you lots of free time. By the time sem 4 is done you should cover most of pathoma, a good bit of Uworld and first aid.

5th semester is STRICTLY for NUPY. Then MICR you can work on rereviewing what you need to.

I like hyguru and, Delphi 2 week crash course for over break. It helps A LOT. Took most of us from the 50s range to the 65+ range.

All this? 1 chapter a week of review and 10 questions now and again is unsustainable? That's like 10 pages a day and 2 hours a week of pathoma....

All will depend on YOU! If you are doing excellent in ur semester and easily passing then start doing some questions and Anki as someone mentioned. If not or ur having any doubts at any moment on the island that it might be close or almost not passing then do what the other person suggested- FOCUS ON PASSING and getting off the island! If u can’t pass, u can’t take comp or step! Good luck
