USMLE Step 1 & Step 2CK | What I Did Right & Wrong

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Good luck to everyone studying for Step! Big shout out to Sketchy for making this video possible! Show them some love here: fanlink.to/SketchyMSI

[@wiiwar1105]

I follow your channel pretty thoroughly so please correct me if this has been addressed before, but I have a problem of falling into the rhythm of mechanically turning over my Anki cards before I've properly answered it in my head. And that "spacebar hitting reflex" is compromising my active recall yet I can't break the habit because I'm so used to Anki.

This video was amazing.Would like a video about IMGs.

[@christianperez1305]

Kevin please. Make a video about the high yield resources for step 2 CK. We need it. Thanks and love your work

[@arvilazaj1687]

I swear to God the excitement I feel once I see the notification for another one of your videos is unparalleled to anything else right now. Hahahahah! Thank you so much for your quality content and helpful advice. You never disappoint us Dr. Jubbal. This was definitely a sweet study break. 😊🙏

Congrats!

Hey Dr. Gamaliel! First off, congrats on crushing STEP 1! I have a question. Were the questions on the actual test similar to the UWORLD questions? Let me know please! Thanks 🙏🏽 🙂

[@STUDYLIKEA-PRO]

can you please please share your step2 anki deck,,it would be really big help

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Yes it’s sent upon newsletter sign up. Link in description

[@suu964]

Kevin Jubbal, M.D. is step 1 anti deck there too ?

[@suu964]

Kevin Jubbal, M.D. I entered my email but I didn’t receive any mail I previously entered my email but received a non functioning data 😔😔 Do I have to sign up for tutoring to get it ?

[@user-vr6yk4iw1u]

Can u pls share some glimpse of ur anki cards...??

[@b9ixxxxii801]

Thanks a ton x Dr. 😀

[@sairav6448]

Thanks Kevin! I sent you a vid request on your website. Pls take a look - Thanks!

[@hmzzrg5045]

Dr. Jubbal what do you think of the Osmosis ressource? I would like your input regarding how useful it is, is the price worth it, etc.? Also, did you pay for all these extra tools (UWorld and others) out of your own pocket or do med schools give accounts to their students? Thanks again for all that quality context and have a great day!

[@ayeshakhilji2831]

Please make a video on how to make anki cards. I can’t figure out what to add and what to skip 😅

[@salvadorbl2-188]

When you do the exact same thing studying for CK like Dr. Jubbal but you’re first practice test is 213

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Don’t lose hope! Examine what isn’t working and review your answers to see why you’re getting questions wrong. I’ll create a test taking strategy video on MSI channel in the future. If you need further help don’t be afraid to try tutoring

[@salvadorbl2-188]

Kevin Jubbal, M.D. I just took CK yesterday and my UWSA 2 was a 240. I was pretty much saying that you are very smart and I’m average haha.

[@bc77147]

I love your content and things you do! I was wondering if you every thought about doing a video like this for MCAT to help us premeds out here? Thank you!!

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Great idea

[@jonathanalverio]

Hello Dr. Jubbal! Can we buy that shirt that you’re wearing?

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Yes link below the video!

[@az0gues]

Does anybody have medicine or USMLE flash cards to study on the Anki app?

[@aedanhannabeshoi]

Can we get a video dedicated to the class of 2024 and beyond that has the P/F step 1 and want to still crush Step2CK , while aiming for AOA and not skipping actual class??

[@JohnMarcos178]

Hey I have a question about the match process, Let’s say you only apply to specialty programs in orthopedic surgery and cardiology for example, if you don’t match into any of the programs would you have a chance to apply again the next year? Or would you have to apply for something less competitive like family med or IM? Thanks!

[@ta4368]

cardio is fellowship and not a residency and you should apply to all the residencies in the world. Drop that cash fam. Its the rest of your life. You might apply to 50 places and get 10 interviews and match into one. Drop that money!!!!

[@JohnMarcos178]

Hey Kevin, how did you modify the aging time on your Anki decks? I’m currently trying out Anki but even after a few rotations it seems like cards aren’t being reviewed for weeks, and when midterms are only a few days away...

[@TheOnlyTinMS3]

I did UFAP, IFAP, and WEFAP

[@kevinjubbalmd]

😂

[@ddfelder2]

Screaming 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@jonlock5705]

Were you making your own anki cards for both step1 and 2?

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Yes

[@matthewxavier2625]

What do you think of Toronto Notes/Essential Med Notes as an additional source? Not many people talk about it, but I found it to be incredibly useful.

[@chabandou]

When did you prepare your Step 2 anki cards? as you studied for clinical rotations or when?

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Yes

[@Soriyou3]

Thank you for such informative video Dr. Jubbal. What are your thoughts on Boards and Beyond, Physeo, and Lecturio?

[@4444hash]

Hi thank you for your vid! Do you recommend 2 passes of UWorld or 1 pass of Amboss then 1 pass of UWorld for step 2 Ck? Thank you in advance :)

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Watch my Step 3 video. Just do UWorld

Kevin Jubbal, M.D. glad I discover your channel you’re so amazing ❤️and cute ; I’m in love 😍

[@thaznimarasheed9535]

Which is more tougher usmle 1 or usmle 2

[@kevinjubbalmd]

USMLE Step 1 is now Pass/Fail, which means there's much more pressure to perform well on the Step 2CK exam.

[@ShreyaChawla17]

Thank you! So useful for Step preparation. In terms of anki, did you use a premade deck from September e.g. Zanki or make your own? Would love to hear your thoughts on premade decks for step

[@kevinjubbalmd]

Made my own. Premade help you save time but lose out on active learning process of making cards. Just a trade off

[@ShreyaChawla17]

Thank you!! Also just sent a dm on Instagram!

[@CJE24]

Is it hard to find time to work on a research project during your 2nd and 3rd year because of the step prep and other obligations?

yes but you can make time for it

@@kevinjubbalmd thanks for your response! Please consider doing a future video on how to balance research and med school. Thanks again!!

[@JohnMarcos178]

Kevin Jubbal, M.D. how do some students manage to get 10-15 publications within medical school? I’m assuming you also had a great amount of research, Wouldn’t even a few be hard?

[@shubhamgautam7617]

I have a BIG question... Is pre med necessary before getting into med school? I mean, is pre med preparation of MCAT or is it a academic requirement which is required to be fulfilled before med school?
