Computer-Based Testing (CBT) and the USMLE

The United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) is a three-step national competency test required for physicians before they can practice medicine. Step 1 is traditionally taken by second-year medical students, and tests basic physiologic mechanisms and principles. Step 2 emphasizes clinical diagnosis and disease pathogenesis, and is traditionally taken at the end of medical school. Step 3 tests first year residents in clinical management.

Those seeking ECFMG certification can take Step 1 and Step 2 in any order, but must pass both in order to take Step 3. Since their introduction (Steps 1 and 2 in 1992 and Step 3 in 1994) each has been administered twice annually in a two-day format consisting of multiple-choice questions (MCQs), either "one best answer" or "extended matching."

Until last year the USMLE was only administered as a written exam, commonly referred to as pen-and-paper testing (PPT). In March 1999, the National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME) -- after years of study and development, accompanied by much controversy -- launched computerized-based testing (CBT). USMLE Step 1 was computerized in May, Step 2 in August, and Step 3 will be computer-administered in mid-November of 1999. By the end of November, a great many medical students and physicians-in-training will have experienced national standardized CBT.

General Surgery: possible for IMG?

Definitely tough - but a residency in general surgery ain't impossible. A friend of mine recently got a residency position at the Methodist Hospital System in Houston on a J1 Visa and I shall be putting up advice from him pretty soon.

It's surely tougher than IM or FP, and it usually is a 1-year "preliminary" position that is granted.

However, ground work is needed - observerships count a lot ! surgical research too counts. Fellowship options after General Surgery ? These include cardiothoracic surgery, vascular surgery, surgical oncology, plastic surgery, etc.


Here are some places that are knowned to have offered General Surgery Observerships in the past:

St. Luke's Hospital of Bethlehem (PA)
Thomas Jefferson University
University of Buffalo
University of Iowa
University of Michigan
University of Nebraska Medical Center
University of Pittsburgh
University of Tennessee
University of Vermont
University of Wisconsin
Vanderbilt University

PLASTIC SURGEON - how much can you earn

Cash is Paper.... Credit Cards are Plastic , whatever it may be, you sure need some serious money if you wanna use the services of a Plastic Surgeon. Hollywood needs them all the time, like Ashlee Simpson and Jessica Simpson recently did for their noses ;-)

Here's are some average plastic surgeon salaries :

Houston: $ 299,000/-
Los Angeles: $ 326,000/-
New York: $341,000/-
Seattle: $317,000/-

How to get into Plastic Surgery ? Let me quote text from the Harvard Program:

"There are two tracks : (1) an independent three-year program open to applicants who have completed at least three years of a general surgery residency or other approved prerequisite residency, and (2) an integrated six-year program open to applicants who have completed medical school. In the six-year program, the first three years will be spent in a general surgery residency with general surgery rotations and rotations specifically relevant to plastic surgery; the final three years will be spent doing a program identical to that of the independent three-year program residents."


Obviousle very difficult for IMG - but there have been a few who made it with proper planning, clinical exposure, knowing the right people and ofcourse - superb surgical skills !

NOTE: Salaries here are the 50th Percentile Salaries and may apply to mid-career levels - the lower percentile salaries (for fresh physicians) may actually be lower by 30,000- 40,000 $

Quality of Kaplan USMLE Videos

One of the most frequent questions that people would ask me is:
"What is the quality of Kaplan USMLE Videos on DVD?"

Well, I guess the best way to know it is to download the samples and then make your judgment. These Kaplan Videos are compressed using DIVX codec - special software that allows you to place full 2-hour movie onto the 700 MB CD-ROM.

This means that you need to download DIVX player to be able to watch the movie. Otherwise, all you will see will the the voice of the stranger form your computer.

To be able to see that stranger you need to install DIVX player.

OK, so if you want to download USMLE Kaplan Video samples - please go here:

Normal Lab Values

Normal Lab Values can be found here:

Canadian Medical Licensure Exams (MCCEE, MCCQE Part I and MCCQE part II) - and how they match USMLE Exams

The main types of exam formats encountered in Canada include:

Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ)
Clinical Reasoning Skills Questions (CRS)
Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE)

Medical Council of Canada Evaluating Examination (MCCEE)

• Paper and pencil-based test
• Multiple-choice questions
• No exclusively Canadian content
• Focuses on basic medical knowledge of the principal fields of medicine, as well as some basic medical sciences as applied to the clinical sciences

A general assessment of the candidate's basic medical knowledge of the principal fields of medicine, including Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Pediatrics, Psychiatry, Preventative Medicine & Community Health, and Surgery.

Very similar ot USMLE Step 1 Exam - therefore most of USMLE Step 1 materials can be easily used for MCCEE preparation.

Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part I

• Computer-based
• Computer-adaptive testing for the multiple choice session
• Multiple Choice (MCQ) and Clinical Reasoning Skills (CRS) questions
• Canadian content

Assesses the competence of candidates who have obtained the medical degree, for entry into supervised clinical practice in postgraduate training programs, with respect to their knowledge, clinical skills and attitudes, as outlined in the MCC Objectives for the Qualifying Examination.

Very similar ot USMLE Step 2 Exam - therefore most of USMLE Step 2 materials can be easily used for MCCQE I preparation.


Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination Part II

• OSCE format (uses standardized patients)
• Assesses knowledge, skills and attitudes (ethical, professional)
• Focus on clinical skills including communication and interpersonal skills
• Canadian content

The MCCQE Part II is comprised of a series of clinical stations. At each station, candidates are expected to interact with a Standardised Patient (SP) in the same way that they interact with actual patients.

Very similar to USMLE Step 2 CS exam - and therefore Step 2 CS (CSA) study materials can be used for MCCQE II

My thoughts about Kaplan USMLE Videos

I have some experience with Kaplan USMLE Videos - that I want to share with my readership.
Kaplan Videos are great resourse for any USMLE taker - but they also have their drawbacks. There is no such thing as a silver bullet - so if you think that once you get Kaplan USMLE Videos, you will automatically pass Step 1 -that is not true.

Interesting fact I read recently - only 10% of people who bought the book in a bookstore had the chance to actually read it from beginning to end. This might be too low value for someone who studies USMLE - but the fact is the fact.

So, if you are just collecting a library of USMLE materials - and piling up Kaplan USMLE Videos, Goljan Audio on Pathology, Kaplan Webprep, Pass Program from Dr. Francis and thousands of remembered questions from past years - you might be scoring as high as a guy across the road who is just reading several books.

The point is - make a plan, make sure it is a logical one, stick with it and review your strengths and weaknesses on a regular basis. Once you know what is your weak area - dive into it using as many materials as possible - be it Kaplan, Goljan, Pass Program os something else.

Good luck!

Why people end up buying USMLE stuff from USMLESTEP.com

Hello,
I want to tell you several things about http://www.usmlestep.com andour usmle materials. You often see a lot of USMLE materials offered on the web,in yahoo discussion groups, forums, ebay and similar places.
One good thing about them is that they are damn cheap - $10, $20 or$40. This is great price and sometimes you are feeling like you mustgo ahead and buy a USMLE package - all included for just $50 or so.
Ok, ok.
3 months later you find out that the disk you received is broken.No matter if it was broken during the shipment or your child (or yoursweet niece or nephew) make a large scratch on its surface.
What are you going to do now? Send an email to XXX@yahoo.com orXXX@hotmail.com or XXX@gmail.com kindly asking for a replacement disk?
90 chances out of 100 that email is not used by that time - and noone is able to help you with replacement disk.
Another consideration - when you are buying aall-in-one-super-collection-to-ace-USMLE - make sure that you reallyneed all the stuff listed there.
I recently looked through the list ofall affixes and suffixes used in medicine offered as a free bonus tothe package. Come on! Do you really think that this information will improve yourUSMLE score???
I am sure you are asking yourself - why would I buy fromhttp://www.usmlestep.com
1. We are here for several years and plan to be here for next severalyears (fingers crossed)
2. We have several thousand satisfied customers (and several dozenpeople who hate us and send meaningless offences about http://www.usmlestep.com in various forums)
3. We offer quality materials and have unconditional 6-monthreplacement warranty. No matter if the disk was scratched by your child, you spilled a coffee or just lost it in transit when you weremoving houses. We will replace your disk at no cost.
We have EVERY major USMLE study material you ever need for USMLE Step1/2/3. We also have many other materials for ABIM boards and even more- ask if you need something that is not listed on our site:
http://www.usmlestep.com
Do not forget - all the materials comes with unconditional 6-month warranty. Any problem is on us - we will ship you replacement and willnot ask questions.

Tips for selecting Study materials for USMLE

1. Determine whether you are visual or audial learner. Visual learners get more from using video materials (tapes, DVD, VCD), whereas audial learners would prefer audiocassettes or audio CD or MP3 CD.

2. You might be better off with just reading notes and memorizing them. Then consider various mnemonics techniques - they are often very helpful to memorize complex chunkis of information.

3. Ask your colleagues and friends how did they obtained study materials. Do not be afraid to aks as many people as possible.

4. Review your strenghts and weaknesses. If you are weak on Pathology - make sure that you have a good study resource on Pathology - Goljan might be good example.

5. Start looking at various USMLE forums (www.4usmle.net or www.usmle.net or www.valuemd.com ) and do not hesitate to ask people out there.

6. Join as many Yahoo Groups on USMLE as possible as listen to the messages.
There is a lot of groups for Step 1 ,Step 2 and Step 3

7. There is a lot of free downloads available on the internet - check the downloads section of large USMLE forums - www.4usmle.net or www.usmle.net or www.valuemd.com

8. Look through various suggestions on-line - there is a lot of usefulo information at USMLE wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USMLE

9. Download couple of Kaplan USMLE Step 1 video samples from www.usmlestep.com

Golan or Goldjan? - common spelling mistake

Goljan or Goldjan or Goldgan?

This is a very common spelling mistake. If you look for Goldjan Audio lecture on pathology for USMLE -then it should be Goljan and not Goldgan (or anything like this).

Please make sure you have this spelling right - and you can find a lot of resources helping you to find a download source for Goljan audio or notes.

USMLE Step 1 consists of multiple-choice questions prepared by examination committees composed of faculty members, teachers, investigators, and clinicians with recognized prominence in their respective fields. Committee members are selected to provide broad representation from the academic, practice, and licensing communities across the United States and Canada. The test is designed to measure basic science knowledge. Some questions test the examinee's fund of information per se, but the majority of questions require the examinee to interpret graphic and tabular material, to identify gross and microscopic pathologic and normal specimens, and to solve problems through application of basic science principles.
