I was really confused about how the USMLE Step 1 Test day was supposed to go, and having gone through it, I am making this video to help you all. Here's exactly what to expect on test day (from the moment you walk in to the end).

You produce excellent videos and I’m not even in medical school. This video was meaningful to me since I have taken many exams at Prometric testing centers. By the way they gave me laminated scratch pads too.

hi! what about writing formulas or mnemonics on that blank sheet of paper during tutorial time? would you recommend that? Thanks in advance! ☺️

@chroniclesofasurgeon 4 жыл бұрын

You have explained so beautifully.But i have one question.when we say 5min break.. the whole break is wasted in the process of finger printing.getting yourself checked and i guess it takes more than 5min.. 5min is so less time for going out

@dugartemd Жыл бұрын

Great vid, one question. Do i have to take the whole 60minutes to take a block? In practice exams I do then faster than 60 minutes thanks

@SimplyTreestump 4 жыл бұрын

you said we can bring in coffee to drink and put outside of the locker. could you describe the layout of the locker room? do they have open and flat surfaces on the superior side of the locker in order to place coffee, etc? are the locker locks combination or key?

@garykaplan7728 4 жыл бұрын

The Prometric center I was at had number coded key that matched the locker. The lockers are in the reception area and are just big enough for personal belongings like phone, wallet, etc.

@nadakhattab8750 2 жыл бұрын

May i just ask, when i am out for a break, how do i know how much time i am spending?

@akiffpremjee 4 жыл бұрын

Quick q - if you finish a section early does that time go into your break? For example, if I finish block 1 in 45 min instead of 60 and then go into block 2, have I now gained 15 more min of break time?

@deathkissgoodbye 4 жыл бұрын

Yeah, you would have gained that time as you would not have used the last 15 mins of that block from the 8 hour timer and would get 1 hour to start the next block.

Are you allowed to where a watch during the exam? (not a smartwatch obviously)

@garykaplan7728 4 жыл бұрын

The answer is NO! No personal belongings except glasses in the exam room. They will examine your glasses. You must pull your pocket lining out and they scan you with a metal detector. Finally, I had to lift my pant legs up to show them nothing was stuck to my legs.

@alonsoedwin1217 2 жыл бұрын

Do we need to raise our hands or something to ask for a break? Or do we just stand and leave? Thank you . And the fingerprint part scares me as I believe many of us would have our hands sweating.
