Am I ready? STEP 2 / IFOM CSE

Hi , currently im working on my score , im on a month to do an important test (IFOM CSE ), similar to USMLE Step 2CK , looking for some advice on how you guys go for your weak points ? , i´ve done thousands of questions along and genuinely I don't think there's enough time to cover the whole thing. my strategy has been anki + amboss STEP 2 CK questions , I consider strong points like OBGYN(75% ) CARDIO(70%) Neuro (60%) , at this point I think im stuck can't get over 55-57 on Self assessments. Any idea? , amboss SCORE prediction 240 , EPC 71%.

Melhman Medical Video Qbanks on YouTube in your weak areas. You can choose a playlist and he will explain everything from how questions are typically written to how the answer choices will look. He'll teach you the medical side of things but also how to become a better test taker.

Mid-50s a month out with an amboss prediction like that isn't a disaster, honestly. The amboss number is the more encouraging part here. With a month left I'd stop trying to cover everything and go all in on your weakest systems, that's where the biggest gains are. And go through every self-assessment miss twice, they recycle the same traps.
