I have both, the lectures and highlights along with the notes. I havent done the complete lectures but i can tell you that Cardiology, hemato and infectious d. with Dr Conrad Fischer are just great. He adds a lot and gives you many tips... besides he is hilarious. :lol: I didnt like Neurology and preventive medicine in the lectures- dont waste your time listening to these- they are boring and everything he says is in the notes. The rest of internal medicine is fine, although everything is in the notes, almost nothing added. I am doing psychiatry now and Dr. Alina Gonzalez Mayo is very good as well. She explains what is in the notes more precisely and gives you many examples. So I would say that so far the lectures are worth it because of Dr Conrad Fischer and Dr Alina. cant tell you about the rest , havent gone through them Hope this helps Good luck

Hello Dr.Bluesky, Excuse me for troubling you but may I seek your advise regarding KAPLAN STEP 2 CK : I live in Italy but have been fortunate to be able to purchase a brand new set of Kaplan Step 2 CK (2003) : is there a particular method you would advise for studying this course ie 1st Internal Medicine , 2nd Surgery , 3rd Ob/Gyn. ? Regards, Atmed

:shock: hi Dr. atmed! Actually i havent taken my test yet. I started with internal medicine because thats what i like the most. I alternate a subject that i like with one that i dont , or a difficult one with an "easy" one so i wouldn't loose motivation. I dont think that the order matters -i may be wrong- as long as you follow an schedule. Thats my suggestion, hope it helps. I wish you the best in your steps ciao!
