Step 1 Re-Attempt

💡 Need Advice

Hello all,

I initially took Step 1 in December, and failed by a pretty wide margin. My school is allowing to re-attempt Step 1 in July-August, and I would like some advice.

It seems like I have used all of the resources possible -- UWorld, Amboss, forms 20-31, BnB, Pathoma, First Aid (multiple multiple times), Kaplan review courses and books, pretty much you name it, I've gone through it.

I've gone through forms 20-31 at least 5 times each. It almost feels like I have most of the problems memorized. I have no clue what else is left for me to do. My biggest fear is failing again, as this would essentially mean the end of my dreams of becoming a doctor.

Any help would be appreciated.
