Hi Sallydro,

Thank you for your kind words! Re: how to review a question, it’s hard to give much specific advice, since I can’t assess your background, etc. For example, maybe you never really learned much of this well, and so need to take a lot of time to master things – in that case, it might require that much time. Or maybe you’re burned out, and so you’re very inefficient. Or maybe you are a perfectionist and get buried under mountains of details. These are all reasonable possibilities, but without seeing how you work, I can’t give specific advice.

I realize that might not help you much with your specific situation, even if it is true. That said, if you’re interested in a free consultation with one of our success specialists, you can sign up here: https://yousmle.com/consultation

Great question. It must be frustrating to be tested on so many things you studied long ago – or that your school didn’t teach you (if you were an IMG, for example). It’s hard to learn those subjects from scratch. If you were in the Yousmle Online Course, I’d recommend doing the biochemistry videos first, so you can have a foundation, then filling remaining gaps by doing questions and studying based on the things you miss. If you were not in the Online Course, I’d recommend doing questions and studying based on the questions you miss, although that can be very challenging if your foundation is weak for a particular subject.
