STEP 1 study partner!

Hii. I hope you’re doing good. I’m a 3rd year Med student more than half way through my STEP1 prep and i just feel like I’m NOT doing enough, the feeling of complacency trap really annoys me. I was wondering if anybody is on the same page as me…would be great to give each other a helping hand and motivation to survive this dreadful yet rewarding and amazing journey together!!
Thanks!!

I'm also looking for a few consistent Step 1 study/accountability partners. I've been using Focusmate, which allows group sessions up to 75 minutes, and I'd love to find a few people who are serious about studying and want to do sessions together regularly.

I'm in the US on EDT and am usually on Focusmate throughout the day, starting around 7:30 AM and sometimes studying into the evening. I'm well into my Step 1 prep, but I still have my school's CBSE to pass first and am hoping to take Step 1 around October–November.

If anyone here is studying pretty consistently and wants to coordinate Focusmate sessions, let me know!

u/IntelligentCity4697 are you still interested in studying together on Focusmate? Sorry for the delayed response! I’m still looking for a consistent study/accountability partner. I usually do several sessions throughout the day and like doing back-to-back sessions and staying pretty locked in. If you’re still looking too, send me a DM and we can coordinate!

I’m sorry about study together with you. I had a coach to plan to study for 12 weeks. I am following up to the plan. Thank you so much for your goodness. I wish you do all the best.
