I posted mine earlier this week or last week. Its a bit over ambitious. Im lookign to change mine as well. Maybe incorporate time to do this chat sessions everyone has online (they look to be at noon - could be a problem) and possible putting more of an emphasis on questions (BSS added) too. Its hard to do one, everything looks very daunting when you first start, especially where to start too. Trying to take this 1 step at a time.

hey ss dont forget to include dr.goljan in ur study material....one more advice from me is DONT FOLLOW TOO MANY BOOKS FOR A SINGLE SUBJECT...just stick to what you have selected. yes,kaplan,FA,and goljan make a good combo according to me. this is just my opinion ...hope it helps you.

hey ss! I just started preparing Step1 (I took a short break after receiving the results from Step 2); looking to take it some time at the end of February or beginning of March. I got the chance to buy only some of the books for Step 1, but I still need to buy a few more. I also purchased the Goljan lectures and notes (they are very good, btw!). I started by studying Biochemistry and Anatomy. I live in NYC. If you have questions, feel free to email me at: gd0811@yahoo.com

Thanks everybody for your advice and tips.Kiranadi,I agree with you that we should not go for too many books.gd11,I have a questions regarding Goljan materials you mentioned.I don't know about Goljan's Step2 lectures and notes ( are they available for step2 too..I am asking this because you already gone through step2..CONGRATS !) This forum is really a nice place to interact with each other.I will try to be part of study group or if I can get some suitable study partner then I will go for that too idea
