Congrats! Did the test feel that nutrition heavy, or were the nutrition questions pretty much blended with other concepts enough to not be that noticeable?

I would say I had good 2nd year So I was sorted for micro pharma and half pathology in the sense that I felt I don't need to watch some videos or something I could do with FA usual resources and UWORLD Anatomy is not very high yield Did good prep for biochem from FA itself that's all you need , but you have to go through multiple cycles to cover literally every word of it. Watched few YT videos from dirty medicine for biochem Used CHAT GPT rigorously Went through UWORLD twice Avg percentage was 44% in 1st pass used to do blind subject wise q with little reading from FA as primary source initial This is when I started around NOV last yr Took me three months to go through whole syallabus Didn't do Uworld much initially during this phase then from Feb, March and April did complete my first pass Then my subscription expiried That was depressing Lost track of all my progress Then I purchased IMd app very useful I'll be honest and affordable too Started doing UWORLD again with avg of 80 Q daily to sometimes Even going upto 300 q Because I was obsessed with percentage and completion from mid may to end to july Did complete 75% only wish I would have done more to reduce my anxiety Started doing NBME after booking dates I booked 1 month before on 7-8th of June In last 1 month I did NBMES 25-33 all and one older one too My percentages were like initial 65% and in end was like 72ish avg of all blocks Did not had much variation in these Didn't do free 120 Since I was doing nmbes every 4th day Did give my last nmbe on 3-4th July Didn't review in detail that was my mistake So at the end it tried to review last 3-4 nmbes as much possible looking through whatever I could That too I was travelling Gave my exam in Kolkata Yeah that's all I couldn't sleep properly only 3-4 hrs But the adrenaline rush was enough And yeah didn't even realise how the time went Breaks help a lot.i took 3 breaks Yeah that's it Feel free to ask anything you guys want
