Introduction to My Journey

https://www.instagram.com/stepstousmed/?hl=en

Welcome to my journey to United Stated Medical Residency. I was raised in the Unites States, New York. I followed my passion into medicine and joined medical school in Xinjiang Medical University, China. Currently, I am studying for the United States Medical Licensing EXAM (USMLE). YES, I am considered an international medical graduate! I graduated from China in 2017.

My intention for this blog is to sincerely guide you through this whole process. I went through a tough time, especially with gathering resources and setting a plan, it took me time to make one sufficient for my needs and I would like to freely hand it you. I also love to make study plans that are realistic and would love to motivate you through this process.

This is the plan that I followed. I just completed my BNB before that duration. I completed it in 2.5 months. But you can also follow it as is!

After completing my 6 month, I did 15 day revision on FA, then my 6 week plan. I adjust NBME in between.

Resources I used for my Step Prep

Boards and Beyond
My favorite! I loved these consise lectures. Very high yeild and covers mostly everything. I watched these lectures in the beginning of my prep. It helped me cover a lot of basics! 
Pathoma 
This is a very HIGH YEILD book. Know it in and out.  I read twice in my Prep, in the beginning and once toward the end! 
First Aid 2018
This was my everything! I used this book along with every source I used. I annotated everything in this book! This should be your GO TO towards the end of your prep. I revised this book day and night. If I had nothing to do, I would have this with me! I read this book about five times. 

UWORLD BANK
There is nothing without this bank! I bought the 6 month subscription. I would ALWAYS recommend to do this online! Use it after you have completed all your basics and for your dedicated period!
