Struggling With USMLE Step 1 Prep? Try The ‘Big 4’

If you’re struggling with your USMLE Step 1 exam prep, one of the biggest causes is a lack of structure, focus, and clarity.
.
If you want to get yourself into USMLE Step 1 exam shape as quickly (and painlessly) as possible, try using the “BIG 4” to make it happen.
.
Your “BIG 4” are: Clarity + Focus + Leverage + Systems
.
Here’s a short description and action step you can take to implement the “BIG 4” today… You’ll start to see results immediately once you give these a try!
.
.
💡 Clarity: Crystal clear goals & a detailed plan are a must for achieving success.
.
➡️ Action step: Come up with your USMLE Step 1 exam goals & create a day-by-day plan to help you achieve it. Get as detailed as you can; the more detail, the easier it will be to stay on track. Once you’ve got a clearly defined goal and a clear plan of action, getting there becomes a lot easier.
.
.
🔍 Focus: Create an environment conducive for deep work and focus.
.
➡️ Action step: Recognize what distracts you & remove it… Recognize what helps you get laser-focused & make that a non-negotiable part of your studies. Distractions are the thief of focus.
.
.
🔨 Leverage: Figure out your points of leverage and build them into your daily study routine.
.
➡️ Action step: Ask yourself which study methods get you outsized returns for your efforts – once identified, double-down on them. Ask yourself what you’re doing that doesn’t seem to be helping – then eliminate it. If you’re doing nothing but questions because you’ve been told that’s the key to USMLE exam success, but you’re not retaining everything, consider adjusting your approach until you find what works for your specific needs.
.
.
🧰 Systems: Build systems that help you get faster, more efficient results.
.
➡️ Action step: Identify what works best for each part of your exam prep and build repeatable ‘systems’ that you can fall back to every time you perform that task. For example, develop a systematized way of doing questions, a systematized way of performing your daily review, and a systematized way of tackling the memorization of facts/details. When you’ve got effective systems in place, it allows you to stay productive – even on days when you’re not highly motivated to study.
