Thank you so much Doctor Deva for your advice. CONGRATULATIONS on your score.
Thankyou so much. This video is really informative.. I'm glad I watched it at the start of my prep!
All the best. It was really a very nice video specially the exam anxiety part.
That was great and congratulations. I'm starting MD5 and needed to hear this. Thank you very much 😊
Best video out there for usmle prep
Literally this is one of the best video regarding usmle
Congratulations for your score! You look quite disciplined throughout prep!
I wish that were true. the last two months I was really focused, but the first two months I was VERY distracted.
Hi! Thanks so much for this video! What about the US application? And how did you manage to get your LORs, and US clinical experience? When do you plan on taking your Step 2 exam?
This is so helpful! I will be transitioning into my dedicated period soon and was getting a little overwhelmed by people saying that you need to do at least 3 Qbanks! 😭 Thank you so much ❤

Cool stuff. Most important concept was is believing in yourself and believing you can annihilate step 1. Currently on my prep! 💯🔥
YES ! it's the mindset that matters the most.
Absolutely.Biostatistics was my major fear.After I watched the biostat guy on you tube I really did well on uw questions and I whispered to my self " you see you are good you can do this girl!!!!! lol
@@mercy1526 whats the channel of the biostat guy? Might need him on my prep thanks
@@noedelafuentejr.9283 his channel is Randy Neil,MD.They call him the pathoma of biostat lol

Biostatistics

Such a informative video thanx :)
How should we proceed after giving the steps? How should we complete the other requirements of getting a match?
First ! Congratulation ! Amazing score ! Second thank you so much for your advices , i think Amir Mullick videos are not in this channel anymore :( i was looking for them
Thanks a lot , you've been a lot of help for my preparation
thank you. do let me know what you would like to see next
Loved the video!😁
thank you so much
Could you please share how was your schedule throughout the day? Like preparation time and sleeping time ?
You have cracked it in very less tym ♥️
How was the exam like ? Was the difficulty level equal to UW or tougher than that
Can u please tell me how u gathered uworld information whether by making own notes or by creating flash cards in uworld itself??
Hey, thanks for sharing the information and explaining the plan that you had followed. I was wondering if there was a way to speak to you.
Hey, is it a good idea to give the step 1 just after the 3rd year of MBBS?
I love the way you started your RUclips channel with a bang 💥. I love all your videos. I wish I will be as dedicated as you are. I do wana start preparing for USMLE but I guess, I have more of starting trouble than anyone. Can I know how long you studied in aver. Everyday for this pre dedicated and dedicated time frame. I'm a pre med student, do you have any piece of advise for me?. I'm a honest fan of yours. Keep doing this good work. @DoctorDeva
Thank you so much:)
I didn't have a fixed number of hours, on average
predicated- 4-6 hrs
Dedicated- 7-9 hrs
I hope this helps. All the best
Thank you very much.
BZW this video is the best and most realistic tip of all videos i cound find in RUclips.
I love your way of approach.
One question.
On One system for example CVS.
# BnB on cvs, first aid on cvs,, uworld cvs and plus...
Then to next system.
On predication phase.
When you did uworld on your predication phase how mannay questions you did on every system before going to next system or how many uworld question you recommend to do.
Do you annotate uworld in your FA or used notes feature in the app ?
Very helpful. Thanks
Watching this in the middle of the night, wondering why I’m not doing USMLE instead of NEET. Just want to put out that these tips and resources are great for pretty much any exam you’re targeting. Great explanation and step by step approach🙌🏻 wish this had come earlier in my prep time🙈🙈
Huge money needed and blurred end
Giving NEET PG as well,gotta agree with you
I use Pathoma and Physeo for anything that can remotely accomplished with them 😁,NEET PG teachers are boomer who take a lot of time and end up confusing u
It's too expensive..Many have tried..and ultimately settled for family med etc..U wont get surgery etc
@@jdsurgeon4820 What's Family Medicine in US?
@@jdsurgeon4820 who says you won’t get surgery etc? I know people who have gotten “surgery etc”
Can you pls tell me are we supposed to choose our test month?
thank you god bless you doctor
Heyy congratulations 👏 for it.....
Just wanted to ask will u get settle there itself if u get the permanent residency there ?
Bcz most of the people get settle there itself bcz a lot more opportunities u get there in usa as compared to India.....
Plz reply me 🙏🙏🙏✌🤞

Hi! Thanks for the video, it was super helpful!
This may sound silly but what did you have the morning of the exam for breakfast and what helped you stay awake through the exam?
hey ! not a silly question at all
I think I had a dosa and i a butter coffee you can google how to make it. its basically sustained release caffeine instead of a caffeine rush.
@@DoctorDeva ahh, thank you! I’ve never heard of a butter coffee. Will definitely check that out
Do they have a study guide or student learning outcomes for usmle part one to know the total subjects and systems?

@doctordevaHey, Thank you for the video.
I wanted to know, how to make notes of BNB lectures? Whether to annotate them in FA or make separate notes?
Would there be space left for uworld annotations if BNB is annotated in FA?
It would be great if you could help me with this.
Upto you
Id suggest combine it by adding extra pages in
Thank you for the informative video! I was wondering how you managed to finish Uworld between July and September, was it stressful or manageable? And did you review every question you got correct or just the incorrects? Thanks!
hey Mariam
so I started u world in may abd did it along with BNB , like I mentioned in the video. so I did u world system eise along with BNB and that system in fa
in July I only had around 1000 questions left.
I think it is better to do questions in your learning period to better solidify a concept
@@DoctorDeva oh that makes me feel better! My exam is in 1.5 month but I still have 1000 Qs left.
I do them slowly so I can review the questions thoroughly and then it helps retain it better.
Were you stressed at all knowing you had so many questions left near to the exam? it’s a big stress for me!
I am at the end of mbbs 3rd proff. And i really want to start the preparation for step 1. Am i late for this? How do i start, kindly suggest.
Hello u said in pre dedicated period u solve questions after watching lecture and and first but question is if u are watching cardiology physiology do u solve whole cardiology along with it or just physiology and secondly if u do physiology do u completely do physiology or just selective topic questions
No whole cardiology
