    Assessment Exam

    Kaplan Lecture notes (Books + Videos) + Pathoma (Book + Videos) : I was in Saudi
    Arabia, the beginning was somewhat interrupted because my job duties, I used to
    work at morning and study at evening, thats why it took me a while to finish the
    first round on the material.

    1 month

    Kaplan Diagnostic Test (When I arrived to USA, I did the diagnostic test and I got
    60%, I felt my studies in Saudi Arabia had paid off!)
    In my 2nd reading, I tried to read in a systemic way (e.g.reading Cardiovascular
    system) from Kaplan Lecture Notes > then reading the same system from First
    Aid > then doing 2 blocks of questions from Kaplan Qbank in the same system
    (I did 50% of Kaplan Q-bank during this round!)

    1 month

    I did the remaining 50% of Kaplan Q-bank


    I started to do USMLEworld (2 blocks/day, mixed timed) with First Aid (when I
    finished 30% of USMLEworld, I decided to take my first NBME)

    2 months

    NBME 7 (224)

    I finished the remaining 70% of USMLEworld, with 3rd reading of First Aid, with
    some videos (from Doctors in Training) in my weak areas (according to the last
    NBME)

    NBME 12 (239)
    I read First Aid twice with reviewing the wrong Questions from USMLEworld. I read
    Medical Ethics for Conrad Fischer, and did a couple of blocks from USMLERx
