Terrified of the NAVLE - help!
Now entering my 4th and final year of vet school and 6 months away from my NAVLE testing window. I've purchased VetPrep, but don't really know how to use it to its max potential. I have been dreading this exam since my first year and have even had night terrors about it. I am not a great test taker, I know that I know more than I think I do but sitting for 7 hours straight in an exam room is literally my worst nightmare. I have started going through VetPrep questions on the lighter topics (practice management, communications, etc) but not really sure how to follow its 'study plan'. I am creating a study guide for all the diseases listed in the ICVA species and diagnosis list and from the countless videos and reddit posts I have gone through I know to get through all the canine and feline diseases. People have said to study the "top 20" for equine and bovine and "top 15" for porcine and small ruminants, but what diseases are considered "top 20"/"top 15". I know Zuku provides a top 20 list for equine, but VetPrep doesn't seem to have something like that. I have some study guides that have spread around TikTok and Reddit from students who have passed the NAVLE, but I still want to create my study guide and not rely too much on other people's resources.
Any tips on how best to use VetPrep? Any other helpful tips or resources out there?
