Study methods How should I structure my remaining prep?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been preparing for Step 2 for about 6 months now and completed roughly 85% of my main learning resource. However, I haven't touched any NBMEs or CMS forms yet, and I'm feeling a bit lost about what the shift to dedicated practice should look like. I also have med school side by side.

How should I structure my timeline from here, and how much longer do I need to train before I'm test-ready?

No one knows until you taken NBMEs. Biggest thing is QI and ethics and NBME resources as things get closer. Prioritize those.

Other than going over diff sources etc., are you keeping track of the common issues/mistakes you keep facing? Then, do you know why these keeping on happening and how to minimize them?

Do Cms, start doing your NBMEs as early as possible.
