Managed to avoid cancellation but my original center wasnвЂ™t open, so I moved my date. Took Friday night after Anki reviews and Saturday morning off. No UW on practice test or practice test review days. Took practice tests (pretty much) weekly on Fridays and reviewed them on Saturdays. Instead I hit stats, biochem, psych, ethics hard to shore up some weaknesses. Only did one pass of UW and then did like 200 of my wrongs - found doing wrongs mostly unhelpful since I had done Anki cards for wrongs, so gave it up. They started adding questions, so my last week I did 120/day similar style and Finished UW 1 week before exam. Did not look at first block percentage until done with both blocks to simulate exam. Did random timed 2x40Q back-to-back every day at the same time except practice test and subsequent practice test review days. Since my whole year was practically dedicated, I marked finishing Zanki as the official start. Finished USMLERx during school year along with organ blocks. It is the most surefire way to drop a badass score.Дid not attend class but am (inexplicably) still top 25%. IMHO there is no better way to comprehensively prepare. Really cannot overemphasize the value here. At worst, I probably had 1100-1200 reviews/day. Started August 20 and missed 0 days of reviews until May 29 when I sat for exam. I did Zanki/AnKing with Zanki Pharm, lolnotacop micro and Dorian anatomy. Nothing too novel about this post but sharing my perspective and some notes in case it helps someone.
