what did you think was most similar to the actual exam as far as questions? Do you remember any questions?

Well done!! great score.. Wish you all the best in Step 2..
I have one little question:
If I want to study only 3 subjects and PASS!!! Is that possible? And what would they be? How much they represent of the total exam questions?
I'll give you 2 sample answers:
1- Yes, because Anatomy, Physiology, and Pathology represents about 70% of the exam questions.
2- No, because the most important subjects (Biology, Biochemistry and Anatomy -let's say-) are representing only 40% of the exams questions, so you can't live with them only.
I would really appreciate you help..
thank you..

Thank you very much adeelmd for your reply, actually I am not planning to leave the others, but I can't buy all the books for all subjects, may be only for 3 of them, so thought about relying on the books in 3, and MCQs and discussions in the others. Can you please tell me how much these 3 represent of the exam - roughly? (50,60,70% ??)
By the way, for Physiology I have Ganong's textbook, how good is this? And am I supposed to read it from cover to cover?

hi dani2005, i gave my exam the last month ,and my oasis says that i'v passed ,now waiting for my score.in my exam pure physiology questions were very few(less than 10) ,isee that most physiolgy questions focus on physiologic changes in pathologic conditions,and pathophysiology of common diseases, so the best way to benefit from your physiology textbook is by reading basic concepts with more focus on pathologic processes ...this may help you in answering more than just physiology questions.wish this may help

Newfriend.. This helps A LOT.. Thank you very much.. I'll take your advise.. I may be able to get the BRS in Physiology and Pathology, is that enough? or I need bigger resources? (Considering I am planning to read them from cover to cover)..
