Hi I took my step 1 on Sept 30th and passed it.Over 2 months and I can not still start studying for step 2.I have few questions
1.How did u guys start.Any tips???
2.Other question is about the books called ,Underground clinical vignettes.How r these?
3.I have Kaplan 2003 and First Aid for step 2.Other than that I'll do uw and Qbooks.Does that sound ok.
4.If I study 4-5 hrs/day How much time wud I need to prepare.
I know these r all stupid questions but I guess I am now getting frustrated cz I don't feel like studying ( or even going in my study room) at all.Any advice wud be appreciated.Thanks

1) Deadline for match was coming quickly! That pushed me to study.
2) UCV ... I had a couple of these but didn't even open them
3) Kaplan notes is all you need. I barely opened my FA.
4) I did that and prepared in 2 months.

FA for step II is not really any good. Stick with Kaplan notes .....

FA is First Aid for Step 2 and you can get it at most large bookstores, or definitely online.
Good Luck,
