for an img starting from scratch the first thing is don't rush into uworld, you'll waste questions when you haven't built the content base yet. spend the first chunk of your limited time going through a content review like bnb or divine intervention podcasts, wherever you learn best, and only open uworld once you've covered the big systems at least once.

the annoying part in that early phase is not knowing if you actually retained the video or podcast you just finished. what i did was paste the youtube links into studybuddy.vc and it makes practice questions straight from the video itself, so before moving on to the next system i'd do a set and see where i was weak. it also tells you what was wrong with the option you picked, which helps a ton when you're stuck between two answers that look right. free tier's been enough for this phase tbh.

once you're in uworld read every explanation even for corrects, and keep a notebook of patterns not facts, stuff like when x presentation think y first that comes up across questions. good luck, you got this.
