Thank you so much for sharing your Step 1 experience. This is really valuable for everyone just starting. Your strategy of breaking down the syllabus into weekly goals and focusing on one subject at a time is something that resonates with me deeply because structure is so important in this exam prep.
I also used First Aid, UWorld, and Pathoma during my preparation, and reading how you combined them gives me confidence that I’m on the right track. Your point about studying 6–8 hours daily while keeping weekends for review and practice exams is smart, maintaining consistency, but also building in space for reflection and self-testing.
