  hi folks,

It finally happened; i got 99! Was worried before the results were out. No more worries now. i will share a little bit of my experience that may be helpful.

Studied for 5 months, full time
with 3 breaks of 1 week each in between

Materials:
Kaplan notes 3 times
Goljan notes 2 times
Goljan audio once
USMLE world once (around 65 - 75%)
kaplan subjectwise questions: around 70%
Kaplan simulation: 74% (3 weeks back)
ECFMG sample questions: 42, 40 & 38 %

Stay cool and calm. It's doable. You have to be focussed; u dun have to study anything else for score like this.

I hope this helps.
