@viv26- I know how it feels... Actually I gave so much time in cardio and I was getting confused while answering the questions and it made me depressed.. But I thing hint is right,,, we should use uw as a learnig tool. that's way we won't be stressed out.. Good to know ur plan.. Good lick and study well.

@umlemle- I don't have any idea about that,, may be you can give them a call and ask.. And you can join us any time.. Good luck..

@ umlemle : I am assuming here that you have not taken Step 1. And you are applying to ECFMG for the first time. To tell you frankly, when I was applying for my step1 last year, there were so many obstacles and wait time that I stopped studying for couple of months. and then when the permit finally came, I had just one and half months left to take the exam in my slot. I did not wish to pay anthing extra for rescheduling the slot. so I just took the exam. So the gist if the story is when you are doing application for the first time, you need to be patient and consistent with them. Keep calling them if you don't understand anything. and wait for the process to complete. It takes little longer time than expected. But to stop studying. Don't get stressed. If they are saying they received it then they have .. they will update it soon.

@ viv26, sal10 : good going you two. I will join for second round of UW soon.

@usmle911 : I know that NBME gives that score and predicted score at the end of four blocks. I have not taken UWSA and don't know much about it. But people on the forum say that it is very close predictor of your final score.

@ckinjan: How is it going?

My report: I finally received an email from ECFMG that I will receive permit from NBME within 1 week. And there are only three dates available in nearby prometric. Sad . Anyways ... Waiting!
I finished OBGYn from Kaplan. I plan to read Psy from MTB3 today.

I googled images for dermatology. and ECGs. But Will anybody please share the sites from ECGs, Radiology, dermatology images and Murmurs can be studied at one place? I really appreciate that.

Happy studying... Lets do it!
