发帖数: 805 | 1 感谢迟大talk，每年百忙中抽空为我们指点。虽然短短1hr，暴露了偶们各种各样严重
错误，迟大还一一点明方向。
Some notes:
1. after getting iv, prepare short CV—complicated, should be very clear
about each period, about study& work exp (1 page). ERAS no blank, or N/A—
reveals cautious; hobby, should be specific and meaningful
e.g: 03/10-03/11, experience
2. prepare suit, may not be expensive, but should be regular, mainly dark
color. –follow the rule, cooperate with people; no label; in winter, make
sure to make yourself tidy
3. During iv: ... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 805 | 2 Heard about that if u have abstract qusns which may have 2~3 continuous
qusns, u may have less than 44q in a block. However, did not hear that some
blocks would have 45 qusn, a little shocking!
BTW, would u like to check ur mitbbs email? Thx! |

发帖数: 805 | 3 先GX Jeff速战速决。
偶是半月前考的CS，担心能否通过，打算知道结果后再发帖的。但还是先跟贴上，让
最近考试的童鞋少走些弯路。
1. 早期上辅导班有助于尽快进入状态。Protocol在开始并非那样必要，经过一些case
练习后，逐渐养成自己的习惯，再总结protocol也来得及。但先把该问，该检查的全套
东西熟悉，在初期很重要。可以速度放慢些，过完FA大case。
2. 中期找相似进度，有commitment的study partner练习。live ptn>online video
ptn>online radio ptn. 但找人练习，效率高于自己闷头看书。建议每个encounter后
直接打PN，然后交流总结。经过1mo训练后，PN基本没时间问题。后期每个c/o都要有自
己的DDx，每个disease有2－3screening qusn，这个是自己的精华。
3. 中末期最好take a model exam. Kaplan 1d exam可以的，就是价格很贵，还要考
虑交通旅馆，最后浓缩的两刀comment是精华。尤其是encounter部分。SP给予的评价我
是认真消... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 805 | 4 超强版的总结和启示啊！比在那边评价公平问题有教育意义多了。
确实需要“有能力学习，有能量，有临床决断力，能够胜任工作的人。”
对于“局限性的认识”，不知是否可以用weakness回答？但这个tricky qusn，尽可能
想在面试时避开真实情况吧。我的第一个面试，确实问到一个相关问题，想在回想非常
在理，而不仅仅是在qusn list了
再次赞个，并感谢个！Best wishes for Thanksgiving! |

发帖数: 805 | 5 Similar experience. Actually happen to meet 8 local residents who were
taking the exam on the last two days of old system. It is pretty stressful
to prepare for the exam during residency, whatever your specialty is. So try
your best to finish the exam before residency starts.
My two cents for the old step3 system: if u can reach two points, passing
the exam is in your hand--finishing all the questions in every block (you
must keep on doing qusn banks and speed up); keeping in mind of CCS skills ... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 805 | 6 首先声明，本人喜好潜水，之所以在成绩未出前发帖分享，主要支持新任斑竹，顺便攒
rp. 大伙儿给点面子就别扔石头或丢花了。
这么打头为了强调一点：CK复习有good study partner的重要性。非常幸运地在备考中
遇见了Hongxing, Jenny, Jeff, Jane, Luna, Mcqueen这样认真踏实又热心解答的学友
。还有神秘前辈Atlanta的鼎立相助。有你们一直地陪伴互勉，才能让我排除万难，坚
持到底，及时完成CK。
我的CK准备时间比较长，主要由于上学期同时有必修课及research，自去年6月完成
Step1就捧着MTB 2&3＋UW,直到Christmas才正式专心备考，满打满算三个月时间。这点
也是提醒想象先来美读PhD同时准备USMLE match的童鞋们，这条路你会走得非常艰辛。
其前提不仅仅是找到一位好老板，更需要坚韧及好人品。大牛除外。
先提一些感想：
1. 考前>2w调整生物钟，早睡早起，养成习惯。即使考前没睡好觉，当天8 blocks也不
会累。考前保持题感。我最后一月前期隔天7blocks，最后一周4～5blocks/d，考前一
天修养。... 阅读全帖 |

发帖数: 34 | 8 Sorry, you are not sure about my qusn.
Let me explain it to you:
It is the second time that I was denied to listen to "match talk" because I
have No
experience in MEIDI.
I asked: Any makeup?
If Volunteer needed? I can do it.
Thanks. |

发帖数: 805 | 10 Best Western is a good place, the staff there are very helpful as long as
they know you are taking the CS exam. So if u have any prob/qusn, just
call the front desk. Also they offer microwave, refrigerator, gym...
everything u need, that's one of best hotels throughout my CS-iv trips. Good
for ur CS exam~~Best of luck! |
