Don't worry about the pass/fail system, concentrate in the work. If you do well in the step1 the step2 will be a step more easy. I didn't mean it will be a walk in the park, but much better than anyone without the step1. So concentrate in the process. All will be well.

Thanks for the advice! Preparing for step 1 will definitely aid my step 2 journey. We’ll see how it goes and I keep you guys updated along the way.

We are in this together then! I have started this process mid January. Since that time, I have done my first pass of all the chapters in First Aid. Additionally, I have gone over the general principles chapters + cardiovascular + renal an extra time while watching the corresponding lectures on USMLE Rx. I am not going to cover all the chapters in First Aid in combination with the Rx lectures, since that will take too much time. Now I have shifted my focus to Pathoma, reading and simultaneously watching dr. Sattar's lectures. For the rest, have been doing practice questions as well (approx. 80 questions per week). Once I finish Pathoma, I will buy U-World and do at least 40 questions a day. I am doing this amidst all my regular classes. I am aiming to take the exam at the end of December. From early November till late December (exam date), I have reserved a free month, which will be my dedicated study time. Good luck in this process, Hasan!

@@kenmed7932 Thanks for sharing this with us. I am spending slightly more time reading low-yield resources beside FA, as i need to fill some gaps in my basic knowledge (e.g. physiology), sometimes this made me feel bugged down. I recommend you reading this recent experience in Step1 group on facebook as i found it quite helpful facebook.com/groups/USMLEStep1nbme18/permalink/3870140616427287/ Best of luck Ken!
